Statement of Significance

Amberley is of local architectural and historical significance. The house is a distinctive example of the inter-War clinker brick English Domestic Revival style, more usually found in Melbourne's affluent suburbs such as Toorak. The house is substantially intact externally and retains many original internal features such as the double-height hall, curved main stair and furnishings. The house also gains distinction from its hill-side siting and exotic garden setting typical of the inter-War period. The later additions to the house are of no heritage significance.
