INNISFAIL - Physical Description 1
BUILDINGS: Innisfail is a large, asymmetrically planned attic-style bungalow, constructed of rendered brickwork and with broad terracotta tiled roofs with exposed rafter ends. The house has a two-storey porte-cochère, with a sleepout balcony above, now glazed. Windows are double-hung sashes with bracketed sills. LANDSCAPE: The garden is typical of the area, and features a substantial rock wall on the street frontage, and a number of low stone retaining walls within the garden. The driveway forms a semi-circular approach to the house and enters the street at the west and east extents of the boundary. Each entrance is defined by a substantial rendered pergola, in the same material as the house. A central white pergola within the garden, and a prominent rock wall appear to be more modern additions. The garden features a number of mature specimens, including Tulip Tree (Liriodendron tulipifera), Lillypilly (Acmena smithii), and an Italian Cypress (Cupressus sempervirens) to the rear of the property. Other plants include a large Flowering Cherry (Prunus CV) and a large Viburnum sp. The vegetation at the front of the property cascades over the footpath, which blurs the line between street frontages and property lines, and was an original design intent for the Griffin estate.
