Statement of Significance

The delightful grounds of Como contain many fine maturing trees and shrubs dating from as early as 1856. Although once part of a much larger estate, the Como garden does retain a certain prominence overlooking both Como Park and the Yarra River.

The Como garden provides a fine setting for one of Melbourne's most distinguished houses. The garden retains its basic nineteenth century structure but has been modified in latter years. These modifications illustrate the twentieth century English gardening style of compartmentalisation.
