| Last updated on - August 25, 2015 What is significant? The Edwardian brick terrace and duplex at 72-80 Stawell Street, Richmond, is significant. The five houses were owned and built in 1911 by architects John V.T. Ward and Alfred E.H. Carleton as a speculative development. They passed entirely into Carleton's ownership in 1913. The houses have gabled fronts, roughcast render to the gables, red brick walls, and large corbelled brick chimneys also seen in grander examples of the practice's work. The non-original alterations and additions to the houses are not significant. How it is significant? The terrace and duplex at 72-80 Stawell Street, Richmond are of local historic and aesthetic significance to the City of Yarra. Why it is significant? Historically, the terrace and duplex illustrate the second major period of development in Richmond, that of the Edwardian period. In particular they illustrate the prevalence of speculatively built developments, mainly comprising terraces and rows of duplexes or detached houses built either to identical design or with a certain amount of pleasing variety in details and forms. (Criterion A) Aesthetically, the houses are distinguished by their unusual verandah details, including brick and bluestone balustrades, ledged gates with turned spindles to the windows.
