Statement of Significance
Residence, 7 View Street is a good representative example of Federation Bungalow architectural style that makes a contribution to the historical townscape of York. It has historical interest for the association with the Baird family and the Avon Hairdressing Saloon in the 1940s.
Physical Description
The single storey masonry residence has a hipped roof with dominant half-timbered gable on the protruding frontage. A bullnose veranda returns across the remainder of the frontage and down one side that has been enclosed. The veranda posts have decorative angle brackets. The gable frontage features a pair of narrow vertical double-hung sash windows with an awning over, and the other front wall has a single double-hung sash window. The front door set has sidelights and a fanlight.
History
The rate books show that the site was vacant in 1910. The house in 1913 was owned by A Baird a hairdresser. A Baird was an active member of the York Athletic Club 1924-1926. In April 1946, a newspaper advertisement showed that J Baird (A.I.F.) was the proprietor of The Avon Hairdressing Saloon.
