Statement of Significance

The three residences at the corner of Jutland Parade and Wattle Avenue have significant aesthetic, historic and
rarity cultural heritage value. They are fine examples of the interwar period. Their Art Moderne Style
originated in the 1920s and 1930s and is characterised by rectilinear and streamlined forms with the
innovative use of plastic and glass. The design style became popular inW A during the 1930s and 1940s and
was enthusiastically supported in Nedlands and Dalkeith where many houses were being constructed in the
interwar period. The grouping of three houses of this calibre is rare and worthy of being judged as a precinct.

Physical Description

At the comer of Jutland Parade and Wattle Avenue stand three two storey houses, all extremely fine examples
of residences built in the interwar period. The houses are built with many features that are typical of Art
Moderne style with nautical influences - brick with rendered horizontal elements, flowing curved valance and
parapets, expansive glassed areas. With some curved glass and steel balustrading. They are built facing the
river and are part of the area known by some as 'Millionaires Row' but more commonly as 'Bookies Row'. All
three houses have marseilles pattern roof tiles.

History

The first owner of the house is said to have been Mr O'Neil, owner of White Rock Quarry in Gosnells
(information from Shirley Cruickshank). It is thought that the designerlbuilder of this residence was Horace
Costello, a well known influence on housing design in the Inter-War period. Costello was also responsible for
the design of theMaisonette, the grand residence at 150 Victoria Avenue and Kardo Mordo.
