Timber Cottage - Physical Description 1
DESCRIPTION
The site at 127-137 Staceys Road is comprised of numerous outbuildings, including a cottage.
The single storey, horizontal weatherboard, Victorian vernacular cottage is characterised by a simple gable roof form with a skillion verandah that projects towards the front. These roof forms are clad in unpainted galvanised corrugated iron. The timber framed windows appear to be recent, as are the timber posts supporting the verandah.
