Statement of Significance
The house at 28 Canterbury Street makes a significant contribution to the predominantly single storey residential streetscape. The transitional Federation and Inter-War Bungalow design of the house suggests that it was constructed in the early 20th century, probably in the 1920s. The house at 28 Canterbury Street is historically and architecturally significant at a LOCAL level. It is associated with residential developments in St. Arnaud in the early 20th century, and it demonstrates original design qualities of a transitional Federation and Inter-War Bungalow style. These qualities include the single storey height, gambrel roof form and the rear minor gable that projects to the side and the broken back return verandah. Other intact or appropriate qualities include the lapped galvanised corrugated iron roof cladding, rendered brick wall construction, unpainted brick chimneys with bands and dentillated tops, wide verandah eaves with exposed timber rafters, timber framed double hung windows arranged in bays, as single windows and in banks of three, window leadlighting and stained glass, gable infill (battening, panelling and ventilators) and the verandah valances and columns. The brick and stucco front fence also contributes to the significance of the place. Overall, the house at 28 Canterbury Street is of LOCAL significance
