House, 42 Scott Street is a typical rendered masonry and tile single storey house dating from c1920. The place has aesthetic value for its contribution to the streetscape and the surrounding area. It is representative of the typical workers' houses in the South Fremantle area.
On North west corner of intersection of Scott and Chester Streets, facing Scott Street. Single storey Federation Bungalow with a hipped tiled roof and a verandah under a continuous roof at a lesser pitch. Terracotta finials to roof.
Low face brick wall to the front boundary. Similar bricks form a semi enclosed verandah with arches, and a brick and masonry pillar balustrade, with a central entry.
Vegetation and the verandah enclosure obscure views of the house from the street.
Scott Street was named for Captain Daniel Scott, the first Harbour Master and first chairman of the Fremantle Town Trust.
House, 42 Scott Street was built between 1920 and 1925. In 1924/25, Albert Ward was listed as the owner and occupant. Between c. 1930 and 1977, the property was owned and occupied by Frederick Standen. It was then owned for a time by Andrea and Assunta Moscio and has been owned by Maria and Salvatore Alessi since 1981.
A diagram dated 1954 shows a stone building with a full length front verandah and centrally located front steps and path leading to the street. A small weatherboard extension was located at the rear and there were four separate galvanised iron buildings in the backyard.
