House, 46 Bellevue Terrace is a good example of a stone residence in the Victorian Georgian style, representing the expansion of Fremantle in the gold boom period of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
The place contributes to a substantially intact late nineteenth and early twentieth century streetscape close to the centre of Fremantle.
House, 46 Bellevue Terrace is a single storey painted stone house with brick quoining to corners and window and door openings, with a zincalume hipped roof. It has a stone second storey or possibly single storey with a cathedral ceiling addition at the rear.
The origin of the name ‘Bellevue Terrace’ is doubtful, although in 1891 the area was subdivided by John Joseph Higham and known as Bellevue Estate. Bellevue Terrace was previously known as Higham Road. The short portion north of Fothergill St was originally Higham St. John Joseph Higham was one of the Town Councillors. His family arrived in the colony in 1853. Council rate books indicate the change of name occurred in 1923, although the change is shown on a 1908 sewerage plan.
House, 46 Bellevue Terrace: A cottage was erected on the lot between 1893 and 1896 which was owned and occupied by Amelia Dixon, a widow. This is now number 46. In 1899 a second cottage was built for Amelia Dixon. The first occupant was Mr Godfrey Dixon, a carpenter. This is now number 48.
