The place is representative of early residential development within the Bayswater townsite and was part of the Hamilton Estate. It has historic value for its association with the Halliday family, who were influential members of the Bayswater community. It is representative of the speculative building that occurred within Bayswater during the 1904 - 1907 building boom.
Brick cottage with corrugated iron hip roof and projecting gable front with cross ties and turned wooden finials. Timber steps lead up to small front verandah under a bull nose corrugated iron roof. This has now been glazed in to form a shopfront and the original front wall and doorway removed.
This is the remaining house of a pair built on land acquired by Henry Halliday in 1905, on the sale of the Hamilton Estate. It can be deduced that Halliday built these as speculative or rental properties. He also owned properties a short distance further down King William Street on which were erected three more houses similar in appearance, next to the butcher shop. These houses, together with the shop at the corner of King William Street, all Halliday works, indicate that he was both an investor/builder in his own right and also doing well out of the stepped up activity in the district. All are important to preserve both as the earliest known buildings in or near the business district and known works of Halliday.
