Statement of Significance
A substantial elevated brick house of the period transitional from Edwardian to early California Bungalow, built about 1915(?). It is historically significant to Maroondah as a representative embodiment of rural town family life in Ringwood immediately after the Great War. It may have been used as a medical surgery for over 80 years. It is architecturally significant as a rare representation of this transitional style locally.

House - Physical Description 1
A three-bay brick house with a complex hipped roof and an attic, transitional from late Edwardian to early Californian Bungalow. Walls over dado height are roughcast. The roof is Marseilles terra-cotta tiles unglazed. Chimneys are pylons, with tall terra-cotta pots, with plate tops and corbels. There are three bays in line to Warrandyte Road, with a central gablet attic. Its upper gable is shingles, with a latticed vent and terra-cotta finial, over a triple window. Rafters are exposed. At left is a canted bay window. The entrance faces the south side, recessed at centre, between two hips. The right hip extends forward as a skillion with a chimney. At left is a small symmetrical quadruple window. Several mature evergreen trees remain.
House - Intactness
The north central bay has been replaced, an intrusive ramp installed and the entrance altered. Another intrusive addition is at the south.
