Statement of Significance

Significance of Individual Property

A late example of the Queen Anne style and of the work of W.H. Smith which contributes to the stretch of substantially intact high quality villas built early this century.

The Burke Road Precinct, Camberwell/Hawthorn East, is an area of heritage significance for the following reason:

- The stretch of residential development on Burke Road hill (south of Camberwell Junction) combines small numbers of Victorian and Federation houses with a series of interwar residences and flat blocks. These are interspersed with later development including undistinguished buildings of post-WWII period. The area has retained a consistent residential scale, despite being adjacent to a major retail and business centre and on a major road.
