House, 142 Edmund Street is a single storey timber framed and iron house constructed as a simple variation of the Federation Bungalow style of Architecture. The walls are timber framed and clad with fibrous cement sheeting above a face brick foundation. The roof is hipped and gabled and clad with corrugated iron. The gable end features vertical timber battens as simple decoration. The verandah is under a continuous corrugated iron roof supported by square profile timber posts. The asymmetrical front façade has a protruding front room with an aluminium framed window under a corrugated iron awning supported by timber brackets. The house is situated above street level. A high face brick wall at the boundary line prevents further description.

He died in 1929 at the age of 93. Edmund Street was gazetted on the 25 May 1922 and was previously known as Marmion Road.
