Statement of Significance
1. A fine example of the Queen Anne style, unusual for its wide principal elevation.
2. Probably the work of prominent Queen Anne architects Ussher and Kemp.
3. An unusual design solution, but typical in its garden attitude for the buildings constructed in the prosperous Edwardian era at Hawthorn when its garden suburb character was further consolidated.

Avondale - Physical Description 1
A single storey house, close to the street, but particularly wide including probably four rooms across its frontage. The Queen Anne design is executed in red brick with cream dressings. A gabled projection at the left hand end provides the termination for a particularly wide timber verandah, elaborately detailed with turned posts, brackets ,flat arches and decorative panels. The verandah is expanded in the centre to accommodate the form of a bay window. The roof is terracotta tiles.
The windows are double hung with fixed lights over which are subdivided with an arched head similar to the verandah.
The fence is scalloped brickwork with a similarly shaped hedge behind.
