A modest early 20th-century timber bungalow with authentic period details — ornate ceiling plasterwork, verandah piers and original joinery — that give it genuine heritage character. Not particularly original or architect‑unique, but architecturally notable as a well-preserved example of a common historic suburban type with good adaptive potential.
