Physical Description

House, 173 Hampton Road is a single storey brick and tile house designed as a variation of the Victorian Georgian style of architecture. The walls are rendered brick. The roof is hipped and clad with cement tile. The façade is symmetrical with a central front door with sidelight flanked on either side by timber framed sash windows. The verandah is under a continuous roof supported by steel poles (not original). A high limestone wall to the front boundary line prevents further description.
