Statement of Significance

The place has aesthetic and historic significance as an example of a stone cottage in central Fremantle constructed in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries and representing the typical living conditions of the townspeople at that period. Limestone wall on the street boundary is historically and aesthetically significant.

The roof has three prominent chimneys with corbelling and extends over the veranda, which wraps the corner facade of the building. There is metal lacework between the chamfered timber posts and timber balustrades (probably not original).
