Statement of Significance
The house is a rare surviving example of a mid-Victorian house in an urban area of Bendigo where this type of house has become uncommon. (Criterion B)
The house at 147 Barnard Street is a good representative example of a mid-Victorian style house displaying a characteristic gable roof form with side parapet walls to the gable end. Significant features include its siting close to the street frontage, brick construction (unpainted to the side) and convex profile verandah of timber construction. A large extension to the rear does not impact on the house’s street presentation. (Criterion D)

HOUSE - Physical Description 1
147 Barnard Street Bendigo is an early Victorian brick cottage located with a small setback from the street. A picket fence of contemporary design separates the front verandah from the street, and the small size of the allotment has the house occupying the width of the site. Of typical Victorian house form the building has brick parapets to each side and a gable roof form with a pre-painted corrugated steel roof. A central panelled door has sash windows either side with a single vertical glazing bar to each sash and rendered sills. A brick chimney is visible towards the rear of the house. The verandah is designed with a slightly convex profile supported by four timber verandah posts. There is a large extension at the rear of the house but this is not apparent form the street frontage. The wall height is higher than is often encountered in early Miner's Cottages that tend to be quite low. This may indicate that the house dates from the later 1860s or 1870s as is indicated through the history to this property. Brickwork to the frontage has been painted
