House, 13 Hayes Street, a single storey timber and iron house has cultural heritage significance for the following reasons:
the place is an example of a bungalow constructed in the Federation period;
the place has landmark qualities and contributes significantly to an intact streetscape (including nos 3, 5, 7, 9 and 13 Hayes Street) and the community's sense of place.
House, 13 Hayes Street is a single storey timber and iron house constructed in the Federation Bungalow style of architecture.
The walls are timber framed and clad with timber weatherboards to dado height and fibre cement sheeting above. The roof is half-gabled hipped and clad with corrugated iron. The verandah is under a continuous corrugated iron roof supported by chamfered timber posts with decorative timber brackets. The symmetrical front façade has a central front door with side and fanlights flanked on either side by windows. A storage area/garage has been added to the western side wall. The house is situated at street level.
The date of construction for House, 13 Hayes Street has not been determined. No entries for the lot could be found in available Bunbury Rate Books prior to 1951. It is thought that House, 13 Hayes Street was built c 1915.
By 1951, the house was owned and occupied by Bob Prodgers.
The street is named for the Hayes family. In 1931, many of the lots in the street were owned by the estate of William Hayes, who purchased the land in 1897.
In the early twentieth century, many of the residents in East Bunbury were railway and waterside workers.
