HOUSE - Physical Description 1
The house at 20 Victoria Street, Korumburra is an atypical Interwar bungalow with a projecting front gable set off centre with a return verandah with side gable leading to a side entry on the narrower side at the east, and a front verandah on the wider side at the west. The gable end of the projection is carried forward from its front wall to be in line with the fronts of the side verandahs and the combination of three sets of paired posts is carried on brick piers with roughcast bands at the top. Solid ladder frames arched down at the posts form the verandah valance, and the balustrades are either of vertical timber balusters or roughcast with a swagged brick cap. The windows are pairs of double hung sashes of typical interwar proportions and the roof is pitched at the typical 22 degrees (approx.) of Interwar houses, with the main roof being a hip. There is a large Magnolia grandiflora tree in the front garden.
