House - Physical Description 1
8 Sugarloaf Road is a substantial bluestone farmhouse built c.1900-1920. In form it is a transitional house between Edwardian and Interwar bungalow styles. The low pitch of the roof, verandah pillars, chimneys and fence is derived from the bungalow, but the plan form of main hipped roof and projecting gables is similar to many houses from the Edwardian era. What is unusual is the use of bluestone in this period of house. The use of bluestone which is more commonly associated with nineteenth century building is a direct reflection of the availability of local materials from the Axedale quarry. The verandah is notable for its timber arched design and infill detailing. This house is without any direct comparison in the study area.
