Štrosmajerova 9

A single-story residential house that, in terms of dimensions, organization of the interior space, design and treatment of the facade, resembles the neighboring house at number 7. The basis of the street building consists of two parts with three rooms in a row. The central corridor, as well as the rooms of the left and right apartments, have flat ceilings. The corridor widens towards the courtyard and ends with a semicircular arch, which is repeated in the interior of the room in the right part.

The roof over the street part is gabled, significantly higher than the roof of the building at number 7. In the extension, the courtyard wing of the base of the Latin letter L continues.

The entrance to the basement is located outside the building under a wooden shutter. You go down the brick steps into a space vaulted with a semi-shaped vault with vaulted branches. Open wooden stairs lead to the first floor. The mezzanine construction is wooden with visible beams in the interior. The window openings in this part of the building are small, rectangular, and the rooms on the ground floor are dark and damp. The roof is gabled, with a break and a bevelled part facing the courtyard. The entire roof is covered with pepper tiles.

The building is built of bricks and tiles, plastered and painted, the yard is paved with bricks of the old format.

The symmetrical street facade has a central arched entrance and two windows on each side. The entrance is emphasized by a simple plaster frame imitating stone blocks with plaster decoration in the axis of the keystone. The entrance courtyard gate is made of wood.

On the edges of the facade and to the right of the entrance door are fluted pilasters with cornice capitals. The windows have a stepped profiled frame with an accented bench and a profiled architrave on the consoles.

The plaster decoration above the entrance, as well as those in the rectangular fields above the windows, corresponds to the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries.
