Statement of Significance

Rosebank is a prominent house in the area. The adjacent St Anthony's school yard retains the aspect of the house's grounds and its siting axial to Austin Street terminates a vista from as far south as Park Crescent. Rosebank is, with Hillsview (qv), a relatively original example of the large houses which were built within sight of the Yarra, by the industrialists and merchants of Melbourne, Collingwood and Fitzroy, during the period of economic expansion, 1880-90.
