Statement of Significance
Corsewall Close Precinct, Hawthorn East, is an area of heritage significance for the following reasons:
- The place clearly illustrates the changing pattern of subdivision within Hawthorn over time from the mansion development era of the 1850s to the smaller re-subdivisions evident now.
- The place is unusual for its consistent flat-type development over the entire street, which has been cleverly designed to make multi-unit dwellings appear as single buildings.
- The place clearly demonstrates the application of the garden villa concept to multiunit dwellings. In Hawthorn it invites comparison with the mews flat developments in Riversdale Road and the apartments at Clovelly Court, both contemporary with Corsewall Close.
