Statement of Significance
The house at no. 22 Brady Road, East Bentleigh was built for the Moorabbin Shire councillor and president, William George Leary, in 1889. It is historically significant.
It is historically significant (Criterion A) as an early market gardener's house and recalls the earliest phase in the occupation of land at East Bentleigh when the market gardens were served by plateways and the hall at East Bentleigh, of which Leary was the secretary for a period, was the principal public building in this isolated settlement.
