Physical Description
Brick and corrugated iron roof single residence set in lush garden surroundings on corner of Leake Street and Wallace Street.
History
Edward and Susanah Harrison built this house c. 1900. Originally, the dwelling consisted of two rooms and was added to as the size of their family increased.
Mr Harrison operated a large plant nursery on the land opposite. The firm of Dawson and Harrison sold their products from a shop in Barrack Street, Perth for many years. However, until the business was established, Mr Dawson took the plants around the district in a horse and cart, selling from door to door.The dwelling was damaged by fire in 2008. A demolition licence was issued on 26 August 2011.
