Former Austral - Physical Description 1
A straightforward, typical two-storeyed, rendered villa with two storey cast iron verandah on three sides. The facade facing the street is somewhat unusual for the asymmetrical openings arrangement.
The building is not exceptionally architecturally, however it is of metropolitan significance as the home of Premier William Shiels.
