Federation
Bungalow with Georgian Influences
No 76 East Street is a single storey house constructed in limestone and brick with a hipped corrugated iron roof. It is a simple expression of the Federation Bungalow style. The front elevation is symmetrically planned with a central door and hopper light flanked by sidelights and double hung sash windows. The facade features a full width bullnose roofed verandah. The verandah is supported on timber posts with decorative brackets. A vertical baluster pattern balustrade spans between the posts. There is a long timber framed stair leading down to the garden. All openings have brick quoins.
There are additions to the rear.
The place is consistent with the pattern of development in Plympton and plays an important role in the pattern of development of a working class suburb.
Plympton is a cohesive precinct where most of the places were constructed in the late nineteenth century and the first quarter of the twentieth century. It is comprised primarily of homes for workers and their families with a high concentration of small lots with timber, brick and stone cottages.
