Why is it significant?

29 Studley Road is of local aesthetic significance as an example of a Spanish Mission style residence with a high level of decorative expression. The Spanish Mission style, although an important part of Post War residential design, is not particularly well represented. It is a highly intact example of this popular style of residential architecture. (Criterion D)

The intricate decorative expression of the building including patterned brickwork, barley twist columns, diagonal patterned balustrading, wrought iron grille and fence panels, bevelled glass and flywire doors, and surrounding fence and garden elements is notable, as is the large deciduous tree in the front garden. (Criterion E)
