Aesthetically significant as an example of Fremantle’s vernacular architecture. Typical single storey cottage dating from the first decades of the twentieth century. Historically significant as a representation of working people’s living conditions in the Fremantle area.
House, 28 Samson Street is a single storey brick and zincalume house built in the Federation Bungalow style of architecture. The walls are tuck pointed brick with a rendered band. The roof is hipped and gabled and clad with zincalume, and has exposed rafters. There is a corbelled chimney evident. The verandah is supported by timber posts. Under the gable there are timber framed windows with a zincalume awning over. There is a recent addition to the rear. A face brick and picket fence is at the front boundary line.
Lot WM 1338 is recorded as a vacant lot, owned by Henry Walton Hicks in 1904/5. A residence is recorded in 1930. Physical inspection indicates that the house was built prior to this date.
There is a 1978 photo on file at the Local History Collection.
