House, 21 Bellevue Terrace is a good example of a stone residence in the Victorian Georgian style, representing the expansion of Fremantle in the gold boom period of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The place contributes to a substantially intact late nineteenth and early twentieth century streetscape close to the centre of Fremantle.
House, 21 Bellevue Terrace is a single storey tuck pointed stone house with brick quoining to window and door openings. It has a Colorbond hipped and small gabled roof.
The origin of the name ‘Bellevue Terrace’ is doubtful, although in 1891 the area was subdivided by John Joseph Higham and known as Bellevue Estate. Bellevue Terrace was previously known as Higham Road. The short portion north of Fothergill St was originally Higham St. John Joseph Higham was one of the Town Councillors. His family arrived in the colony in 1853. Council rate books indicate the change of name occurred in 1923, although the change is shown on a 1908 sewerage plan. In 1912/13 House, 21 Bellevue Terrace was in the process of being built on the vacant lot, which was owned by Herbert J Locke. In 1913/14 William Hancock was the owner and the first occupant of the cottage.
