A modest interwar-era rendered cottage that retains a good number of authentic period elements — timber floors, decorative cornices, a brick fireplace and an inset vintage stove — which give it local heritage character. It is not a standout architect-designed or award-winning house, but it is a genuine one‑off period home rather than a modern project or multi‑unit development.
