Statement of Significance

The house at 2 Beatrice Street, Burwood, is of local historical and architectural significance as a good example of a Moderne house of the late inter-war period. The asymmetrical massing of forms takes advantage of the prominent corner siting to address both frontages, a context which sets it apart from the more traditional planning and form of the neighbouring properties. While the integrity of the building has been compromised to a degree by the alterations to windows and a door, the overall composition remains unaltered.
