Architecturally, this is an unusual design which incorporates typical contemporary elements in a creative and distinctive manner. The house is externally near to its original form: of local importance and regional interest.
Historically, it was created by and for George Garvin, a prominent Bendigo architect who (with Beebe) worked on important projects such as Denderah, Lansellstowe and (with Eathorne) St. Andrews Church, Myers Street. As his home over a long term, it both represent well Garvin's status in the community as well as providing scope for interpreting his other designs and his life style.
