This two storey residence and former stables, located on a subdivision from the Rischbeith mansion 'Unalla', has exceptional cultural significancebecause: - it has historical associations with the Rischbeith's, William Evans andMarshall Clifton; - it is a unique and notable work ofMarshall Clifton; - it represents the start of a new physical phase in the development of the suburb and another phase in the social developmentof the suburb.
A notable amalgam of markedly different styles, using contrasting material palettes. A picturesque essay, informally composed, contrasting broad masses with details which give emphasis to the large sheltered entry. The design requires brilliant sunshine for its best effects.
The place was built on one of the early subdivisions from the large estates or 'superblocks' of Peppermint Grove. William Evans was Bessie Rischbeith's nephew and a member of the longstanding Peppermint Grove Evans family. Marshall Clifton, who designed the conversion of the former 'Unalla stables' into a residence,was a prominent Peppermint Grove artist and architect and has since become one of Western Australia's noted architects. Exceptional historical significance.
This place is not listed in Marshall Clifton, Architect & Artist, but is a work of his "Spanish" period, a phase of his work which is highly regarded for its innovation and technical competence. Site subdivided from Unalla Conversion of original stables into a residence
