| Last updated on - January 1, 2008 The following wording is from the Allom and Lovell Building Citation, 1998 for the property. Please note that this is a "Building Citation", not a "Statement of Significance". For further information refer to the Building Citation held by the City of Yarra. History: The house at 13 Grosvenor Street, Abbotsford, was built in 1867. Rate Books for that year show vacant land valued at ?2 where the following year, a 2 room brick house, owned and occupied by Edward Muller, is listed. Its value is ?15. Muller, shown variously as a brick maker and an engineer, owned and occupied the house until at least 1920. Description: The house at 13 Grosvenor Street, Abbotsford, is a symmetrical, single-storey, double-fronted brick cottage. Its walls, originally of tuck pointed face brick, have been painted. The facade comprises a central front door flanked by single windows with (painted) bluestone sills. The transverse gabled roof is clad in corrugated iron, and penetrated by two simple brick chimneys on the north and south walls. The simple concave-profile verandah is similarly clad, and is supported on non-original square-section timber posts, with simple timber balustrading (also non-original). The main body of the house is one room deep, with a skillion-roofed rear section. To the rear of this again is a timber addition and at least one outbuilding. Significance: The house at 13 Grosvenor Street is of local historical and architectural significance. Believed to be the second oldest extant building in Grosvenor Street, it is a rare surviving example of a modest brick worker's cottage of a type once common in this part of Abbotsford. Architecturally, the building is a typical and a substantially intact example of a small cottage, which was occupied by the original owner for more than 50 years. |
