General notes:
The house at 203 Roden Street first appears in the Melbourne City Council rate books in 1872, described as a brick house of three rooms, owned and occupied by George Hessey.It is a single-storey rendered masonry Victorian cottage with a transverse gabled corrugated galvanised steel roof. The façade has a timber-framed double-hung sash window and a four-panelled entrance door with a fanlight. The concave profile verandah is terminated at rendered wing walls; the original frieze decoration has been removed. The chimney is rendered, with a moulded cap. The cast iron front fence is recent.It is of local historical and aesthetic interest, being typical of the cottages which were constructed in large numbers in West and North Melbourne in the nineteenth century. Largely intact, the house relates visually to its neighbour at No. 201.
