School Teachers House (fmr) and Garden - Physical Description 1
The former school teacher's house is a double-fronted timber house set high above the river on a steeply sloping site. In appearance the house is late Victorian, with its elaborate entry door featuring side and highlight windows, its tall, paired double-hung sash windows and gable set into the main roof to mark the entry. There are verandahs on two sides. The underfloor area is enclosed by weatherboards. It is set within a mature gardens, with a number of large trees (include a white poplar close to the house) and a well planted understorey.
The house appears substantially intact externally. There is an extension to the rear, and a small part of the verandah has been filled in. Presumably, a long flight of stairs once enabled access to this main entry, however these no longer remain. The verandah also seems to have lost some of its expected detailing, for example a cast iron or timber frieze, and the balustrade detail may be more recent.School Teachers House (fmr) and Garden - Physical Conditions
