This place has historic importance for its associations with the Bardon family, who were influential characters in the local community and the Perth Region. This house is a representative of Inter-War suburban settlement.
An imposing single storey house of brick with a tiled hip roof, return verandahs and a small portico over the entry steps. It has triple banked casement windows grouped in banks of three. The verandah is simply detailed with elegant post brackets.
A good example of war time suburban settlement with high aesthetic value. The land was bought by F W Bardon, a former president of the Shire of Perth, in 1912. The house was valued at 132 pound 10 shillings. The land remained in the Bardon family from the time of its construction until 2003. The house is authentic and has had little remodelling. Bardon Park is named after this property and its occupants.
