House - Physical Description 1
A characteristic triple-fronted timber Edwardian house with a high hipped-roof. The left-side rear and right front bays project as gables. Upper gables jetty on fretwork brackets, timbered roughcast, with triple windows with toplights. The verandah is under the hip which extends at break-pitch and returns around the
angle. It has a palisaded valance with fretwork panels with an Art Nouveau incised tulip motif. It has turned posts and concave fretwork brackets. There is a rare Edwardian flyscreen door. There is a canted gablet at the canted angle, giving a diagonal axis to the entry beneath. There is a mature garden with remnant period elements including a front boundary hedge and a palm. The front fence is chicken-wire and red gum posts. There is a rare surviving rural vehicular N-profile gate, with five horizontal wire stands and two verticals, bolted connections to cast-iron bosses.
