Statement of Significance

18 Bindaring Parade is significant for its contribution to the quality of the setting by way of the predominately authentic Federation Queen Anne style residence in a prestigious riverside location.

Physical Description

The single storey street frontage has a double storey river frontage as the site slopes down at the rear. The rear has been subdivided and another residence has been constructed. The street frontage is defined by mature plantings within an open front setback. The face brick walls have been painted above the verandah roof. The roof is somewhat complex; hipped with gablets over the front facetted bay windows, and features tall face brick chimneys with rendered corbelling. The front verandah has a timber floor, and the bays have a series of casement windows with highlights. There are 1981 additions at the rear that include a billiard room and garage.

History

John Butler came to Western Australia in 1830. He established an inn halfway between Fremantle and Perth, at Freshwater Bay. That land on the foreshore was allocated in 1850 to 19 Pensioner Guards and families. In the 1870s influential men of the capital brought into the district relevant to the place. In mid-1910, Donovan purchased this site from the estate of J. Grave (developer of Osborne Hotel).
