Statement of Significance
A characteristic timber Californian Bungalow built about 1925 with several mature trees in the front garden and nature strip. It is in very good condition and intactness and within one of two linked groups. It is historically significant to Maroondah with the others of these groups as a representative embodiment of rural family life in Croydon in the 1920s, after the Great War. It is architecturally significant as a representative example of this domestic style.
