Statement of Significance
No. 70 Orrong Road is important as an exceptionally ornate Boom style villa residence in the terraced form and in this respect is rare in Caulfield. Its architectural value is enhanced by its intact state and by the manner in which its bold architectural expression is carried through into the hallway and staircase.
