Ernest Waddington became the owner c. 1930 and moved into the house; in 1942, Nellie Waddington was listed as the owner.

History

Lilly Street is named after James Lilly, who was manager of the Adelaide Steamship Company from 1886 to 1889. Lilly was born in Tasmania in 1845 and died in Claremont in 1905. The majority of the houses in the street date from the 1890s and early 1900s. Duplex, 4 Lilly Street and its pair at No. 2 were built c. 1902. In 1904/05, the cottages were owned by Ellen Cornish, who owned them both until c. 1930. No. 4 was leased to tenants throughout her ownership. Annie Cowley was a long term tenant from c. 1910. Mrs Cornish lived at No. 2 for many years. A Metropolitan Sewerage plan dated c. 1910 shows a pair of stone cottages at 2 and 4 Lilly Street (then 12 and 14 Lily Street). Both had full length front and rear verandahs and water closets set against the back fence. In 1932, Fanny and Thomas Pascall owned the duplex pair. They lived at No. 2 while Annie Cowley continued to live at No. 4. By 1942, Annie Cowley had bought the cottages and had moved into No. 2 and rented No. 4 to John Matir. By 1952, ownership of Duplex, 4 Lilly Street and its neighbour at 2 Lilly Street had passed to Eleanor Cowley. While No. 2 remained in the Cowley family ownership for many years, Duplex, 4 Lilly Street was sold to Percy and Margaret Tidy in the mid-1950s. By 1960, Duplex, 4 Lilly Street was owned by Giovanni and Lean Giudice and was occupied by Ernest Warren. The property changed hands several times in the 1970s and 1980s. 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.
