This is a modest timber cottage with recognisable period cottage elements — picket fence, veranda, corrugated iron roof and a brick chimney — but it lacks the refined ornamentation or intact detailing of a high‑value heritage listing. It reads as an authentic, everyday historic dwelling with some later alterations rather than an original architect‑designed or standout property.
