House, 8 Hulbert Street, is a typical weatherboard and iron single storey house dating from 1940. The place has aesthetic value for its contribution to the streetscape and the surrounding area. It is representative of the typical workers' houses in the South Fremantle area.
Single storey weatherboard and iron cottage with a symmetrical facade constructed in 1940 The walls are painted horizontal weatherboards. The roof gabled with no eaves and clad with corrugated iron. The verandah is under a broken back corrugated iron roof with square timber posts. The front facade is symetrical with a central front door and timber framed windows either side. A painted brick chimney is intact. There is a timber corrugated iron fence to the front boundary and a small garden area behind.
The area around Hulbert Street was subdivided by John Thomas in 1896. The street was originally called Jane Street. It was changed in honour of an accountant named Hulbert who lived in Jane Street for a time and worked at the smelting works. House, 8 Hulbert Street was constructed c. 1940. The land had been vacant up until this time. In 1944/45, Ellen Wilson purchased the property from Dulcie Sainsbury. Ms Wilson continued to own the house until c. 1987. House, 8 Hulbert Street has had a couple of owners since that time.
