Statement of Significance

Bramber, at 47 Wills Street, Kew, is of local historical and architectural significance as a fine and externally highly intact example of a single-storey brick villa of the early Federation period, combining earlier Italianate modes with the new Federation style as it was emerging in the mid 1890s. Bramber's half-hipped gabling is unusual, and the house is marked by a flexion of scale characteristic of the more inventive early Federation designs.
