Site Comments:
A semi-detached staggered complex of stone with verandahs facing Marsh Street and the sea. The roofs are hipped with corrugated iron and a high chimney. There are five small covered gables along the facades which have two splayed corners. Two of the gables still have original timber decoration with finial. The verandah has wooden supports and wooden trellis railings. The doors have five panels and fanlights. The windows are 2 X 2 panes sashes with external louvred shutters. The right side extension has a protruding wing with bay windows covered by the gable roof. There is also a fine, low stone wall with Edwardian posts and a wrought iron fence. This whole elegant complex possibly built c. 1915 should be protected in the Town Planning Scheme and investigated for proclamation.
