Statement of Significance

The brick villa at no. 34 Jenkins Street, Northcote, was built in 1888 for Edwin Parke, a drawer. It is aesthetically important.

It is aesthetically important (Criterion E) as a substantially intact and richly decorated bi-chrome brick Boom period villa located with other villas on the eastern limits of Victorian Northcote (Croxton) and recalling with them the locale's pre-eminence as a brick making centre. It is important also as one of a pair of similar houses with no. 36, imparting character to the street
