IONA - Physical Description 1
Iona is a symmetrical, single storey Italianate bichrome brick villa. It has a hipped roof with bracketed eaves, and the brown brickwork is relieved by two cream-brick string courses, and cream bricks forming a frieze between the eaves brackets. The facade presents paired timber-framed double-hung sash windows either side of a central doorway. The verandah, which has a decorative cast iron lacework frieze, is supported on simple timber posts and has a central gable with the painted name Iona faintly visible in the glazed gable-end. The tessellated tilework remains on the verandah. The garden retains two lozenge shaped beds either side of a central pathway; although the paths are now concrete, the form is early. The house has had its original roof replaced with tiles, but the rendered chimney with moulded tops remain.
