Yately Residence - Physical Description 1
This large residence was designed in a restrained Georgian Revival form that was quite advanced for its period of construction. The strong horizontal character was created by the alignment of windows with strong projecting drip moulds and window sills. This was an early date for this stylistic expression, and is comparable to Walter and Richard Butler's 1 Linlithgow Road Shackell residence and the Prairie School influence of Walter Burley Griffin. A projecting porch, enclosed sleep-out and ground floor loggia further strengthen the horizontal character as does the wide capping on the chimney. The house has a slate hipped roof (an apparent replacement of an earlier tiled roof) and rough cast walls which is repeated in the low front fence. The windows have projecting sash boxes with leaded glass of a simple rectangular grid. The sleep-out and porches have been enclosed with fly screens, probably of a later date. This house is generally intact other than the alteration detailed above.
