Statement of Significance

The Power Street heritage area in Toorak is part of an exceptional suburb within Melbourne featuring consistently fine residential building stock produced predominantly during the twentieth century. The area is outstanding for its consistently high standards of construction and design.

It provides a substantial representation of residential development of the interwar period, superimposed through redevelopment of the large estates of the previous century alongside other remnant buildings of the first wave of limited development during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
