The group demonstrates a particular style of building, one of substance and permanence compared to the buildings of timber framed CGI clad housing in the town and forms part of the Railway establishment of Coolgardie.
The two houses were built to house railway employees. They are simple rectangular stone buildings with gables corrugated iron roofs. They have three rooms, plus lean-to weatherboard and asbestos additions at the back. There are two large pepper trees in front of the houses and a very large Moreton Bay fig at the back. The houses are in good condition (1976), although some of the stonework has been painted.
