House, 19 Silver Street, is a single storey timber and iron house dating from c1900. The place has aesthetic value for its contribution to the streetscape and the surrounding area. It is representative of the typical building stock located within the residential areas of Fremantle. It is historically significant as a representation of typical workers' houses in the Fremantle area. The place is an example of the Victorian Georgian style of architecture.
House,19 Silver Street is a single storey timber and zincalume house built in the Victorian Georgian style of architecture. The walls are timber framed and clad with painted weatherboards. The roof is hipped and clad with zincalume. The façade is symmetrical with a central front door flanked on either side by timber framed double hung sash windows. The verandah is under a continuous roof but at a different pitch, and is supported by turned and chamfered timber posts. There is very little setback from the street and no front fence.
This street was surveyed on the sub-division of a large block of land belonging to Sir Henry Briggs. The land was called Briggs Paddock and the speculation is that the streets were named after treasures such as silver, gold and coral, because in fact, the land was originally pure white sand covered with rushes, and held no mineral wealth.
The eastern section of the street was called Stanley Street until 1952/53.
High degree of integrity (original intent clear, current use compatible, high long term sustainability).
High degree of authenticity with much original fabric remaining.
