The collection of residences that form the Washington Street Precinct have cultural heritage significance for the following reasons: The places have aesthetic value as an intact group of residences built in the Federation Bungalow style of architecture. Such a grouping of residences in rare in the Victoria Park area.
The Washington Street Precinct comprises six single storey detached properties along the northern side of Washington Street, constructed in the Federation Bungalow architectural style. The Precinct is bounded by Columbo Street to the west and 35 Geddes Street to the east. The residences are constructed of face brick walls and corrugated steel and clay tiled hip roofs. Numbers 32 and 34 have been sub-divided and there are two storey contemporary residences constructed to their rear boundaries. All six properties have a verandah facing Washington Street constructed of timber posts with decorative corner brackets. Number 28 is located on a corner lot and has a return verandah addressing both Washington Street and Columbo Street.
The group of houses (28, 30, 32, 34, 34 & 38 Washington Street) were constructed by Curtis and Wainwright in the 1920s. Number 28 was built for Mr. Wainwright and his family. In 1990, Mr. Wainwright’s daughter, Kelly, still lived at the residence.
