House, 33 Scott Street is a typical brick and tile single storey house dating from 1937. 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 place is an example of the Inter War California Bungalow style of architecture. The place was the family home of the Mills family, of the Mills and Ware Biscuit family.
Single storey rendered masonry, face brick and tiles cottage with an asymmetrical facade constructed c1937. The walls are face brick to dado height and painted and rendered masonry above. The roof hipped and gabled with eaves and clad withtiles. The half verandah is under separate tiled roof with square timber posts on brick bases. The front facade is asymetrical with a protruding front room with a timber window and a tiled awning over. Under the verandah is the front door and a timber framed window. There is a limestone fence to the front boundary and a small garden area behind.
House, 16 Scott Street was built between 1935 and 1940. In 1939/40, William Mills was listed as the owner (after passing through the hands of several members of the Mills family that year). Norman Mills was listed as the occupant. Following the death of William Mills in the mid-1950s, the house was registered to Mills and Ware Holdings Ltd. The company sold the house to Enrico and Elena L’Aurella in the mid-1960s, and they retained ownership until the 1990s. House, 16 Scott Street is shown on a 1954 diagram as a large brick house with a projecting front room and steps leading up to the half-length front verandah. A small verandah, weatherboard laundry and toilet were located to the rear of the house. Extensive paving ran down the side and across the front of the house. Scott Street was named for Captain Daniel Scott, the first Harbour Master and first chairman of the Fremantle Town Trust.
