Statement of Significance
The House is important as the residence of Alfred Groves, dairy farmer and early settler in the district, and as a significant example of a large Federation style house formerly part of an extensive dairy farm.
Physical Description
A single-storey brick and tile house, set back from the street boundary with expansive timber-framed verandahs, high-pitched roof and tall chimneys; the former landscaped grounds are now brick-paved for onsite car parking.
History
Alfred Groves, dairy farmer and early settler in the locality, constructed the house on an 11 hectare property supplemented with leased properties along the foreshore of the Canning River. The house has changed in use and is now separated from the former rural land by subdivision and residential development.
