House, 202 Hampton Road is a single storey brick and zincalume house designed as a simple, late example of the Victorian Georgian style of architecture. The walls are painted rendered brick. The roof is hipped and clad with replacement zincalume. The façade is symmetrical with a central front door with top and side lights flanked on either side by timber framed casement windows. The verandah is under a continuous zincalume roof supported by timber posts. There is a brick and timber picket wall to the front and side boundary line.
Hampton Road was originally called Prison Road. It derives its name from John Stephen Hampton (1810-1869), the Governor of WA from 1862-68. He was previously Comptroller of Convicts in Tasmania. His son, G. E. Hampton, was Acting Comptroller-General of the Fremantle Convict Establishment. The land on which 202 Hampton Road stands was vacant in 1925/26 and owned by Trevor J Francis. By 1929/30 Emma Rebecca Heal owned the lot and a house was being built for her. Emma lived in the house in 1930/31 and by 1935/36 Amos Baglin Heal is listed as the occupant. By 1945/46 Amos is the owner/occupier. The house was originally numbered 308. In 1935/36 the house number changed to 172 and changed again in 1951/52 to the current number. The house is on Pt 152 of CSL 134. This place was identified by the Fremantle Society in 1979/80 as being of cultural heritage significance.
