House - Physical Description 1
A good triple-fronted timber Edwardian house, with Marseilles unglazed terra-cotta tiled roof. Bays project at left-side rear and at right, as gables. Upper gables jetty, timbered. The roof extends down break-pitch over the verandah, which extends around the angle. There is terra-cotta decorative cresting and finials. The verandah has fretwork deep valances and sinuous Art Nouveau ogee fretwork brackets, on turned posts. Walls are roughcast over dado height and weatherboards below. The entrance in the angle has a sidelight, fanlight and glazed Edwardian door. There are mature evergreen trees in the garden.
House - Intactness
The roughcast is now painted. A large window has been inserted under the verandah, facing Aird Street. Picket fence and side ramps are recent.
