Considerable significance - Very important to the heritage of the locality. High degree of integrity/authenticity.

Statement of Significance

Residence 5 Bird Street, is an example of a Victorian Georgian bungalow with verandas enclosed over time. It was likely a larger landholding, demonstrating a life style no longer practiced and possibly impacted by development of the town. It makes a contribution to the historic townscape of York.

Physical Description

The single storey residence is located with its side to the street, on a paddock site. The main roof is high-pitched and hipped that breaks pitch over the perimeter verandas that are mostly enclosed.

History

It is possible that the residence was part of a larger landholding that was subdivided, hence the street along the side of the residence.
