[1/1] Fassifern Garden

Statement of Significance

Fassifern is significant to Cardinia Shire as an example of an early twentieth century gentleman's garden built in a Shire resort town. The garden layout and its components (tennis court, first pool), associated pavilions and extensive use of concrete, although recently altered, make up the significance of the property. This is enhanced by the extensive photographic coverage of the garden in its complete state. It is also significant for its associations with the long-term owners and probable designers of the garden, Charles & Ann Walker.
