Statement of Significance

What is Significant?
The Bourke Street Precinct, including places 1-13 and 2-14 Bourke Street, Coburg (but excluding 1, 4a & 6 Bourke Street which are non-contributory places)

How is it Significant?
The Bourke Street Precinct is of local architectural significance to the City of Moreland.

Why is it Significant?
The Bourke Street Precinct is of archtiectural signficance as it comprises a relatively homogeneous group of substantially intact inter-War weatherboard bungalows, built to a small number of standard designs. Although the housing is representative of the north-west of Coburg as whole, the precinct stands out as a street of particularly intact houses displaying a cohesion of scale, materials and setbacks.
