Statement of Significance
Historic significance: An imposing large house built in 1916 by Charles Edwards who earlier, in the 1880s had also constructed the adjacent Hartleap House.
The two houses, from differing stylistic periods, demonstrate great similarity and only subtle changes in detail. They show the continuing prosperity of a successful farming and business family.
The apartness of these two houses sited together on high open land overlooking the town but not part of the town is indicative of Edwards their builder who fulfilled for York what Bland and Monger had founded – a thriving and unified commercial centre.
Physical Description
A large red brick house with terracotta tiled roof, decorated gables and encircling timber verandahs.
