Statement of Significance

Architecturally, an externally original, successfully designed and richly ornamented house which follows the Medieval revival, illustrating its influence on established Italianate forms of that period, and possessed unusually formed and applied details; also it is the subject of distant views which include the related North Park mansion and clearly identifiable as prior to the surrounding residential subdivision; of state importance.

Historically, is connected with perhaps Essendon's first resident land owner and represents a pastoral property dating from 1845, now part of suburban Melbourne; of local importance and regional interest.
