HO161 Ryeburne Avenue Precinct, Hawthorn East

Ryeburne Avenue Precinct, Hawthorn East, is an area of heritage significance for the

following reasons:

- The place is a largely intact, predominantly late Victorian/Federation precinct

developed to capitalize on the prestigious image of the early mansion development in

the nearby Harcourt Street vicinity.

- The place is representative of the growth of Hawthorn as a garden suburb in the late

nineteenth and early twentieth century.

-The garden qualities of the place are reinforced by the Angliss Reserve and Rathmines

Road Reserve, both located at the western end of the precinct.

- Rathmines Road includes a mostly intact group of brick Federation duplexes, while

Ryeburne Avenue has a concentration of timber Federation houses which is relatively

unusual for the Hawthorn area.
