STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE

A characteristics particularly intact timber Californian Bungalow built in 1925, with several surviving original contextual elements, including garden layout. It is architecturally significant as a representative of this domestic style, but particularly for its remarkable intactness and for the rare intact survival of its contextual elements including: garage, fence, pedestrian and vehicular gates, garden layout and appropriate plantings, including the cumquat. It is historically significant as particularly evocative embodiment of a middle class family life in Newtown in the interwar period.
