Category 1

Buildings, which due to their character create the atmosphere of Peppermint Grove, therefore should be retained, but may be altered and extended in a manner which is both discrete and sympathetic to the original fabric and character so that a significant proportion of the original building is retained and from the street the additions are seen to be a continuation of the same fabric and character.

Shire of Peppermint Grove

Condition

The boatsheds and jetties are in good condition. Although there are areas of damaged weatherboard and rot in the timber studs on the Forrest Boatshed, the boatsheds are in good condition for their age and location. The roof height on the Forrest Boatshed has been raised and steel portal frames have been fixed to the existing timber framed structure providing support and longevity for continued use.
