Residence

STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE

Architecturally, an accomplished and early design using both Queen Anne and Federation Bungalow detailing as a precursor to the more widespread use of both styles in the next 15 years, also contributing to an Edwardian and Victorian era residential streetscape and an example of local architects, Laird and Buchans, prolific practice. Historically, like 324 Eastern Beach and 159 Yarra Street, once linked with the noted Ward Nicholson, owner of the regionally important Humble and Nicholson foundry.
