STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE

An unusual and most intact timber house built on the cusp between Californian Bungalows and 1930 Villas in 1920.

It is architecturally significant locally demonstrating this Bungalow/Villa transitional approach. The corner windows are significant early examples. It is historically significant characteristically as a rather spartan representative embodiment of the way of life in early 1930s Newotnw when little building was taking place, due to the Great Depression.
