Statement of Significance
Significance of Individual Property
1. Architecturally significant for its unusual juxtaposition of elements and the art nouveau embellishment. Very few art nouveau designs occur in Melbourne.
2. Historically important for its associations with Joseph Proctor Bainbridge, University administrator and Registrar of the University of Melbourne from August 1909 until c1945, for whom it was built, who lived there from 1909 to 1910, and who owned it until c1916. Important also as the house of a number of Methodist ministers in the 1920s.
HO161 Ryeburne Avenue Precinct, Hawthorn East
Ryeburne Avenue Precinct, Hawthorn East, is an area of heritage significance for the following reasons:
- The place is a largely intact, predominantly late Victorian/Federation precinct developed to capitalize on the prestigious image of the early mansion development in the nearby Harcourt Street vicinity.
- The place is representative of the growth of Hawthorn as a garden suburb in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century.
-The garden qualities of the place are reinforced by the Angliss Reserve and Rathmines Road Reserve, both located at the western end of the precinct.
- Rathmines Road includes a mostly intact group of brick Federation duplexes, while Ryeburne Avenue has a concentration of timber Federation houses which is relatively unusual for the Hawthorn area.
