Kalkallo Villa - Usage/Former Usage
Original Use: Residence
Current Use: ResidenceKalkallo Villa - Physical Description 1
Kalkallo is a typical late 19th century, double-fronted villa, asymmetrically planned with a return cast iron verandah and of bi-chrome brick with rendering dressings. The M-hipped roof is slated with bracketed eaves. The projecting bay is gabled with a king post truss and finial. The elevation is further distinguished by diaper pattern brickwork to the gable end and between the eaves brackets, and the two niches on either side of the paired double-hung sash windows. The guttering has been replaced and the picket fence removed, and urns probably originally sat on the stair piers. Internally, a white marble fireplace has tiles featuring unidentified male and female portraits.

The 1880s land boom did not greatly effect the Heidelberg area. Kalkallo is one of the few substantial brick residences constructed during that period.
