House, 14 Rose Street, is a typical limestone brick and iron single storey house dating from 1901. 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 Fremantle area. The place is an example of the Federation Bungalow style of architecture.
14 Rose Street is a single storey, limestone, brick and iron house with a symmetrical facade built in 1901 and designed as an example of the Federation Bungalow style of architecture. The walls are limestone with red brick quoins. The roof is hipped and clad with corrugated iron. The façade is symmetrical with a central front door with side and fanlights and double hung sash windows. The verandah has a separate corrugated iron bullnose roof supported on timber posts. There is a rendered masonry and timber picket fence to the front boundary line.
This area of South Fremantle was part of a five acre grant made to Captain John Bruce of the Pensioner Guards in 1851. The property was subdivided in the early 1890s although the majority of the street was not developed until the early 1900s. House, 14 Rose Street was built in 1901/02 for William Hawkins, a clerk. It was soon sold to the Cook brothers and leased to Louis Pearse, an architect. In 1903/04, ownership passed to William Willis, a fisherman. The Willis family continued to own the cottage until the mid-1930s, though it appears to have been occupied by tenants in the late 1910s and again in the 1930s. A sewerage diagram dated c. 1915 shows House, 14 Rose Street an L-shaped house with a full length front verandah, with a rear verandah. There were two long, rectangular outbuildings located against the western fence. By 1951/52, the cottage was owned by Kate Gribble and occupied by Marion Price. This place was included in the list of heritage places in the City of Fremantle identified by the Fremantle Society (1979/80) - RED -significant for contributing to the unique character of Fremantle.
