How it is significant?
Somerset Terrace is of local historic and architectural significance to the City of Yarra.
Why it is significant?
Somerset Terrace is historically significant as tangible evidence of the large terrace rows constructed as speculative ventures during the 1880s land boom, which was characterised by higher density development as land values increased. It demonstrates a significant phase of residential development during the late nineteenth century. (Criterion A)
Somerset Terrace is architecturally significant as representative example of a Victorian terrace row constructed during the 1880s. Typically, the decoration is more restrained that the terraces constructed during the late Victorian 'boom' era and includes features such as the bi-chromatic brickwork, verandah with cast iron frieze and brackets, a parapet with moulded cornice and central pediment and other stucco detailing. The elevated siting of the terrace enhances its streetscape presence. It is notable for its uncommon form comprising a single storey front with double storey rear wings. (Criteria B & D) |
