House, 24 Ashburton Terrace, is a single storey timber and iron house dating from 1927. The place has aesthetic value for its contribution to the streetscape and the surrounding area. It is representative of the typical building stock located within the residential areas of Fremantle. It is historically significant as a representation of typical workers' houses in the Fremantle area. The place is an example of the Federation Bungalow style of architecture.
House, 24 Ashburton Terrace is a single storey timber and zincalume house constructed in the Federation Bungalow style of Architecture. The walls are timber framed and clad with painted weatherboard. The roof is hipped and gabled and clad with zincalume. The gable has timber battens in a fan style. There is a red brick corbelled chimney evident. The verandah is under a continuous roof supported by square timber posts. The asymmetrical front façade has a protruding front room under the gable roof with timber framed double hung sash windows, and in the recess is the front door and a similar set of timber framed windows. To this side is a fibrous cement addition. The house is situated at street level. There is a masonry wall to the front boundary line.
In 1924/25 the land on which house 24 Ashburton Terrace is located was vacant and belonged to Harry Norman Highman and William John Highman who owned much of the surrounding area. Ownership changed in 1927/28 to May Jane Mayne and in the same rate period she had a house built on the lot.
