Statement of Significance
1. Architecturally significant as an intact example of the typical 1870s garden villa form in Hawthorn.

-
759 Burwood Road - Physical Description 1
A rendered garden villa, symmetrical about the entry, and flanked by bay projections. The verandah extends across the full width of the building and returns on each side . From street level inspection, the verandah posts appear to be timber. These are paired, with wider pairing at the entry to accommodate even: "straight" decoration across the whole verandah. The roof is hipped and clad with slate. Each bay is expressed at roof level with facetted hipped projections.
Stone piers set at 450 mark the entry with a curving stair. Urns or sculptures are likely to have terminated the piers originally. The house is set in extensive grounds.
