House - 'Hathaway', 46 Dundas Street, ST ARNAUD - Physical Description 1
'Hathaway' at 46 Dundas Street, St. Arnaud, is set on a large allotment. It has a front setback of approximately 5-6 metres, with narrower side setbacks and a driveway along the side. The front yard appears to be early, with its shaped shrubs, concrete bordered flower gardens and concrete pedestrian path. The site is bound by an early concrete and wire fence, with the concrete piers accentuated with diamond hollows.
The asymmetrical, single storey, interwar Californian Bungalow styled house was constructed of concrete with a stucco finish and is characterised by a dominant gable roof form, together with a minor gable and skillion verandah that project towards the street. These roof forms are clad in galvanised corrugated iron. Wide overhangs with exposed timber rafters are features of the eaves.
A distinctive feature of the design is the return front verandah. It is supported by stuccoed concrete piers with incised panelling and simple elliptical concrete valances. The timber framed double hung windows are also early, as is the gable ventilator and the decorative gable infill (battening and panelling).
