Statement of Significance

Laurelville, 18 Panmure Road, demonstrates associations with several historically prominent identities: members of the Leeder and Marwicks families; and, in more recent times, the Architect CF Mouritz; and, social attendees of events at Laurelville. It is a significant representative example of the development of a Federation homestead, located in an elevated position east of the Avon River, overlooking the town, whilst also being a landmark that makes a significant contribution to the historic townscape of York.

Physical Description

The extensive single and double storey residence set in expansive landscaped grounds, is complex with hipped, gable and facetted spire roofs, verandas, and staircases from the residence and in the front garden area.

History

The Leeder family built the original residence in 1896. The original residence was extended in 1917. In 1986 Architect CF Mouritz designed upgrades and conservation for the owners WA & JA Marwick.
