5 Auburn Ave - Physical Description 1
Like Padua, the house is another late variation of the Federation Bungalow style. The Marseilles pattern terracotta roof tiles, the timber slatting to the verandah and their fretted onion motifs, the half-timbered gables an the bellied chimney caps are typical of the style. The plan is L-shaped infilled with diagonally placed verandah to suite the comer entrance. The main rooms of the house protrude under gabled bays on either side of the verandah.
Number 5 Auburn Avenue is in near original condition, including the boundary picket fence and timber lattice yard fence.
