Statement of Significance


Architecturally, a unique house concept so typical of the experimentation with function and form, as guided by structure, which obsessed the young post-war architects, particularly Peter McIntrye also prominent in, if not supportive of, the streetscape: of State importance.


Historically, occupied since construction by one family and hence given its integrity to the construction date, a document of typical lifestyles emanating from the experiments with living undertaken by some after the war, particularly in this suburb: of local importance.
