Statement of Significance

House, 133 South Street, is a single storey limestone and iron house dating from 1909. The place has aesthetic value for its contribution to the streetscape and the surrounding area. It is representative of the typical building stock located within the residential areas of Fremantle. It is historically significant as a representation of typical workers' houses in the Fremantle area. The place is a modified example of the Federation Bungalow style of architecture.

Physical Description

133 South Street is a single storey residence with an asymmetrical facade, designed in the Federation Bungalow style of architecture. Walls are rendered over limestone and brick quoinings. The corrugated iron hipped roof is also hipped over the front projecting portion of the façade where timber framed doors replace the original bay window. The verandah is under a separate skillion iron roof and is supported by pillars which are not original. The form of the house remains intact, although the windows and doors have been replaced.

History

133 South Street was one of the earliest houses to be built within the near vicinity of South Street. The Metropolitan Sewerage maps of 1908 shows that the house was constructed of stone with a verandah and bay window to the western portion of the front façade. Wise’s Post Office Directories has determined that by 1909 the place was built for Henry Curedale who occupied the house.
