Why is it Significant?
Erected in 1908, it is of historical significance for its association with an important phase of residential subdivision which shaped the area in the early twentieth century (RNE Criterion A.2).

Aesthetically it is significant as it is a typical and substantially intact example of an Edwardian timber villa erected in a transitional style which harks back to the earlier Victorian villa type (RNE Criterion E.1).
