Statement of Significance

A fine "Moderne" style house in very good condition. A major contributor to the streetscape. Its integrity is
intact - even the original carpets remain. It was designed by noted local architect C. L. E. Harrison who
undertook the renovation of the Hotel Cottesloe in the same year. The builder was well known local
builder W. E. Rosser. The house was his residence. Rosser was a major buijder in Cottesloe 169-171
Broome Street is another of his buildings.

Physical Description

Removed from list by Council in July 2003.
A rendered masonry and hipped tiled roof house built in 1936 with commanding views across playing
fields to the ocean made distinctive by its "Moderne" styling in the way in which it treats chimneys,
verandah roof and sunhoods. The joinery is simple timber side-hung casements, a low limestone wall
encloses a sparse garden.
