History

House, 48 South Street was built in the late 1880s or late 1890s. In 1886, a two roomed cottage was built on the lot for Francis Barrett, a plasterer. By 1894, this cottage had been enlarged to four rooms and another two cottages were built on the lot in 1897. At this time, Robert Cook was the owner of the lot and leased all of the cottages to tenants. Robert Cook owned the properties until the 1940s, when House, 48 South Street was sold to Salvatore Travia. By the early 1950s, ownership had been transferred to Antonio Iraci. A Metropolitan Sewerage plan dated 1954 shows a stone house with a full length front verandah. There was a projecting room to the rear, which was wrapped by a weatherboard addition. The house had a centrally located front path and a substantial fence to the front boundary. In 1959, Mr Iraci applied for permission to reinstate the verandah. The columns date from this time. Another application was made in 1969, this time for a garage to the side of the house. Mr Iraci owned the property until c. 1980. The house was restored in the mid-1980s when the then owner developed the adjoining property with 10 residential units to accommodate the America’s Cup crew.

It is representative of the typical workers' houses in the Fremantle area. The place is an example of the Victorian Georgian style of architecture. The use of limestone is part of the Fremantle landscape and gives the City coherence and character. Limestone walls were built around properties in Fremantle to prevent sand drift in response to an early building regulation dating from the 1830s. Limestone walls are one commonly encountered example of use of this stone as a building material, most of them dating from the 19th century and early years of the 20th century. Most of the limestone in small walls came from local quarries.

History

House, 49 South Street was built in 1899 for William Jones, a pensioner guard. The Jones also built two cottages in Attfield Street at the same time and in 1902/03, another cottage in South Street (No. 47). The Jones family owned the cottage until c. 1914, when it was sold to Edith Pridham and was occupied by Frederick Every. A Metropolitan Sewerage plan dated c. 1910 shows a brick house with a wing extending down the eastern boundary. The house had a full length front verandah with centrally located front steps and a substantial fence across the front of the property. In 1920/21, ownership was transferred to Matilda Hartree, who lived there for a time before selling to James Hicks. Mr Hicks let the property to Percy Fletcher. Between c. 1930 and c. 1945, House, 49 South Street was owned by Theodore Sloan. Mr Sloan lived there for a few years, before leasing it to tenants. House, 49 South Street was owned by Angelo Lomardi between c. 1950 and at least the mid-1970s.

House, 60 South Street, is a typical limestone, brick and iron single storey house dating from c1895. 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 Victorian Georgian style of architecture.

Physical Description

60 South Street is a single storey, limestone, brick and iron house with a symmetrical facade built c.1895 and designed as an example of the Victorian Georgian 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 fanlight and double hung sash windows. The verandah has a separate corrugated iron roof supported on timber posts. There is a rendered masonry chimney evident. There is a rendered masonry wall to the front boundary line.

History

House, 60 South Street was built between 1892 and 1897. Samuel Vagg, who owned the lot, had seven cottages built on the lot (two with street frontages and five behind) in these years. Prior to this, there had been cottages on the lot since the early 1880s. Ownership of the land was transferred to Charles McMullen in 1904. A Metropolitan Sewerage plan dated 1908 shows a stone house with full length front and rear verandahs. The house was associated with the house next door, as there was a shared access between the houses leading to an open area (paddock?) to the rear, but each house had a fenced off area for a rear yard. There was a large stone building at the back of the lot behind 60 South Street, presumably a stable. By 1920/21, the cottage and stables at 60 South Street were owned by Edward Coleman and occupied by Samuel Woods and then Harold Gabrielson. Horace Dixon lived at No. 62. The Coleman family sold 60 and 62 South Street to Stipan Kezie and Ivan Krunajevic in 1951/52. Mr Kezie moved into No. 60 and Mr Krunajevic into No. 62. There have been several changes to the house since the 1970s, including a new brick back verandah in 1971; the addition of a family room, laundry and toilet in the early 1980s and a garage/studio at the back of the yard in 1984.
