The Remilton family owned the property until c. 1910. It was described in the 1905 rate book as a two storey cottage.

Between c. 1920 and c. 1945, House, 42 South Street was owned by Margaret Owen. The next owner was Emilio Beltrami, who owned it until c. 1960, when the cottage was sold to Linda Rinaldi. Ms Rinaldi was still the owner in the early 1970s. House, 42 South Street was a rental property during all this time.
