House, 44 William Street, a single storey weatherboard and iron house has cultural heritage significance for the following reasons: the place is a good example of the Federation Bungalow style of architecture; the place has landmark qualities and contributes significantly to the streetscape and the community's sense of place.
House, 44 William Street is a single storey weatherboard and iron house originally with an asymmetrical facade designed in the Federation Bungalow style of architecture. The walls are timber framed and clad with timber weatherboards. The roof is hipped with a small gable to the front and clad with corrugated iron. The verandah is under a broken back corrugated iron roof supported by square timber posts with decorative timber details and a simple timber frieze. The verandah originally wrapped around the sides of the building but has now been infilled by a garage to one side and a projecting front room to the other. The front facade has a central timber door with side and fanlights flanked on either side by timber framed double hung sash windows. There is a painted and face brick chimney evident and no fence to the front boundary line.
House, 44 William Street was built c 1903. It is believed to have been built for the Jarvis family and was the first house in William Street. No further information could be obtained from the available Bunbury Rate Books on this property.
