Statement of Significance
This was the home that Marshall Clifton, an important Western Australian architect, designed for himself and his family, and where they lived for almost four decades. It is a good example of the Spanish influence that Clifton brought back from his travels in Europe. Extensions have been sympathetic to the original design.

Set in a walled garden with mature palms. Across the street are tennis courts and park areas. The house is close to the river.
History
Designed by the architect himself, he lived there until his death in 1975.
