Interwar
Porch House Bungalow w Federation Influences
No 67 Fortescue Street is a single storey house constructed in rendered brick with a hipped and gable tiled roof. It is a good expression of the Inter-War Bungalow style. The front elevation is asymmetrically planned with a thrust gable bay and a part width broken back roofed verandah. The verandah is supported on rendered piers. A rendered balustrade runs between the piers. The verandah construction may be a replacement for a previous timber detail. The verandah terminates at the gabled thrust bay. The half-timbered thrust bay features double hung sash windows under a sunhood. There is a central door flanked by casement windows. The roofscape features a rendered chimney and finials.
The place retains its basic form and details. There are additions to the rear.
The place is consistent with the building pattern in the Precinct. The place plays an important role in the pattern of development of a middle class suburb.
Woodside is a relatively cohesive precinct where most of the places were constructed following the subdivision of W.D. Moore’s Estate commencing in 1912. Most of the lots were sold between 1912 and 1929 and the majority of buildings were completed in this time. Residences were substantial and of various Federation period styles distinguishing the area from the small worker’s cottages of Plympton. The Inter-War Californian Bungalow style residence is also represented in Woodside.
The Woodside Precinct remains largely intact in terms of original housing with little infill subdivision or replacement housing.
