House (Closer Settlement) - Physical Description 2
This house is asymmetrical in plan and has a hipped roof with a contiguous return verandah set between projecting hipped bays. Originally built in stages from 1906 to 1912 and renovated c.1930 the Federation/Edwardian origins of the house are demonstrated by the asymmetrical form with a dominant spreading roof, the ashlar boards to the front walls, the casement windows with hoods supported by brackets with intricate Art-Nouveau detailing and the corbelled chimneys with terracotta pots. The porthole window may also be original. The interwar makeover has resulted in the square fluted Tuscan verandah columns on roughcast piers with a roughcast balustrade and the tiles to the roof and hoods. Overall, the house has good intactness and integrity with few visible changes since the 1930s renovation.
