Residences (units 1 - 5 included) - Physical Description 1
The house at 336 Ryrie Street, Geelong, is set on an average sized allotment for the local area. The house has a very short front setback with an overgrown garden, and narrow side setbacks. The front is bound by a temporary cyclone wire fence, although there is one section of early capped timber picket fence approximately 1300 mm high with a rounded timber post approximately 1500 mm high in the northwest corner.
The two storey, horizontal weatherboard, unusual Edwardian styled house is characterised by a jerkin head roof form, together with two projecting single storey rectangular and parapetted bays at the front and recessed flat roofed dormers that project at the sides. These roof forms are clad in galvanised corrugated iron, with flat skylights on the eastern and western roof faces. Early unpainted red brick chimneys with rendered bands and terra cotta pots adorn the roofline. Modest overhangs are features of the eaves.
A feature of the design is the front projecting bays with a recessed central entrance having exposed timber rafters in the porch ceiling. The west bay has an altered bank of three timber framed windows, with a central pair of casements flanked by double hung windows. The eastern bay has a bank of early casements with decorative leadlighted highlights. The recessed entrance has an early panelled timber door with a three-paned frosted glass upper panel, and an early, flanking timber framed portal window with introduced frosted glass. Above the entrance is an projecting rectangular bay under the jerkin head roof which has an early bank of timber framed casement windows and timber shingled side and tapered base walls with projecting timber mouldings.
