Physical Description

Federation Simple Federation Bungalow No 45 May Street is a single storey house constructed in brickwork with a hipped and gable tiled roof. It is an expression of the Federation Bungalow style. The place is symmetrically planned with a central door and hopper light flanked by sets of three casement windows. The facade features a full width skillion roof verandah supported on stop chamfered timber posts. A render band runs at sill level on the front facade. There are additions to the rear. The place is consistent with the pattern of development in Plympton and plays an important role in the pattern of development of a working class suburb.
