Statement of Significance

No 16 Kooyongkoot Road, Hawthorn, is of local historical and architectural significance. It is a substantial later Victorian villa constructed during the 1880s boom in Hawthorn which, unusually, combines later Victorian Italianate details with Federation elements in a striking manner. The dwelling is distinguished by the verandah in antis between the two front canted bays, the slender window proportions to the canted bays, and the off centre entrance located in the north side portico. The generous front garden setback also enhances the presentation of the property and affords it some visual prominence in the streetscape.
