[1/1] Review of B Graded Buildings

Statement of Significance

3 Second Avenue, Kew is of local historical and architectural significance as a fine and highly intact example of an interwar attic storey brick bungalow featuring asymmetrical planning and Arts and Crafts stylistic overtones. It is a striking and commanding composition which uses its elevated site and addresses the approach along Second Avenue with considerable skill. The setting of the house appears intact; the property retains its original fence comprising split-face brick piers (now overpainted) complete with chain swags and wrought iron gates, together with a series of other hard landscaping features.
