Physical Description

Large brick and clay tile "double fronted" residence with a multiple hipped roof, addressing the corner with frontal treatment to both streets and a 45-degree bay window section at the corner. This aspect was further emphasized with a verandah on the same 45-degree angle, supported on turned wooden posts with decorative timber frieze and brackets. The verandah was covered by a bull nosed corrugated iron canopy that appeared to be a recent addition. The brick chimney had Victorian style cement moldings and a terracotta pot.

History

This impressive house, on the land subdivided in 1904 by Gold Estates, was built by Albert Edward Dent c. 1913. At the time, the house was situated on a double block, as were many of the larger houses, given the cheapness of the land at the time.
