Waverley - Physical Description 1
Waverley, at 98 Pakington Street, Kew, is a single-storey double-fronted Victorian villa of symmetrical planning and brick construction on a bluestone plinth. The hipped slate roof has bracketed eaves to the facade and a pair of brick chimneys with moulded caps. The facade displays polychrome brickwork and is screened by a full-width verandah with concave corrugated galvanised steel roof supported by cast iron Corinthian columns with fine cast iron frieze, brackets and dentilled cornice. The non-original concrete verandah floor is edged with bluestone and reached via a central set of bluestone steps, above which is a gabled pediment. The central entrance contains a six-panelled timber door with leadlight glazed surrounds flanked on each side by paired window openings with timber-framed double-hung sashes. A rear addition, visible at the end of the side driveway, appears to date from the late 1980s and other works may have been carried out around 1990 and 2003.[i] The house appear to be otherwise externally intact.
The front timber picket fence is not original and the garden contains a substantial palm sp.
