Sweeney House - Physical Description 1
This triple-fronted, weatherboard house has a high gabled hip-roof, with three tall brick chimneys, sits over the main part of the house. A bay window on the main facade is covered by a hood with slatted brackets. The walls are clad in an unusual style of overlapping weatherboards (a horizontal form of board and batten) which are believed to have originally been finished in oil and later painted. (1) Internally the house is lined with paper board, thought by the present owner to have been imported from Canada. (2) There have been subsequent hip roofed additions to the rear of the building and a sunroom was added to the front in 1974. (3)
