Statement of Significance

This late 1860s substantially intact villa has state significance as one of the earliest 19th century homes remaining in this area which developed in the 1850s as a residential area after the arrival of the railway. The building has design significance as an intact example of a 1860s brick house, enlarged and improved over the years with successive building stages remaining intact, and including significant fence and former stables. It has additional architectural significance for its unusual timber veranda decoration. The garden, which is thought to date from the 1860s, is of local significance, regarded as one of the better surviving 'terrace house gardens' in the municipality.
