House, 63 Solomon Street is a single storey, brick and tile house with an asymmetrical facade designed as an example of the Interwar Californian Bungalow style of architecture. The walls are rendered brick with face brick bands. The roof is hipped and clad with tiles. The front elevation has a central front door flanked on one side by timber framed casement windows, and on the other, the central window has been replaced with a door. The verandah has a separate flat roof with rounded corners and is supported by pairs of decorative steel poles. The house is slightly elevated at street level, and possibly has an understory at the back as the building follows the fall of the land. There is a low rendered wall with face brick capping at the front boundary line and along the driveway. No 63 and No 65 are mirror image house, except for the variation in the verandah rooves.
