Statement of Significance

Constructed using a technique of coursed random rubble which was unusual for urban dwellings in the 1880s, 51 Austin Street is one of only three existing surviving basalt houses in Northcote. Historically it is of some significance, having been used as a parish convent for most of the twentieth century.
