House, 13 Orient Street, is a typical weatherboard and tile single storey house. 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.

The half verandah is under a broken back tile roof with metal posts. The front facade is asymetrical with a protruding front room with an aluminium window. Under the verandah is the front door and a timber framed window. There is a rendered masonry and timber picket fence to the front boundary and a small garden area behind.
House, 13 Orient Street was built between 1920 and 1925. In 1924/25, James Fletcher was listed as the owner and Frank Caple as the occupant. Fletcher retained ownership until c. 1940, when title was transferred to Evelyn Fletcher. The house continued to be occupied by tenants during this time. Kate Budge owned and occupied House, 13 Orient Street from c. 1945 to the early 1960s and the place has had a number of owners since that time, including: John and Jenny Champman (early 1960s); Marko and Katica Donjerkovich (mid-1960s); Alfredo and Maria De Florenca (late 1960s); Anibal Loreto (1970s). The place has had a number of owners since c. 1980. A diagram dated 1954 shows House, 13 Orient Street as being a house with a projecting front room, a half-length verandah and a centrally located front path leading to the street. There was also a large asbestos building in the backyard.
