Statement of Significance

Myrtle Hill, at 14 Vista Avenue, Kew, is of local historical and architectural significance as a good example of a large and imposing single-storey Italianate house of the early 1870s surviving in Kew. While the house has undergone a degree of alteration, its overall form remains evident and extensive original fabric survives. Originally sited on a large allotment overlooking Normanby Road (now Argyle Street), the setting of the house has been dramatically altered through extensive subdivision and development.
