General notes:
Grading as at 1999 : DPeriod : Early Victorian (1874)This house, formerly numbered as 98 Stanley Street, first appears in the Sands & McDougall directory in 1874. It was occupied by William Hunt, who remained in residence until 1878. He was succeeded as occupant by Peter Miller, and then by John Sigsworth. From 1881 until 1886, James Bardsley was listed as the occupant. Thomas Campbell lived there from 1887 until at least the turn of the century.It is a single-storey, single-fronted Victorian brick cottage with a transverse gabled roof between parapeted end walls. The skillion-roofed verandah has timber posts and a timber fence, which is not original. The façade has a timber-framed double-hung sash window and a timber-panelled entry door. An early bluestone right-of-way exists alongside the house.It is of local historical and aesthetic interest, being representative of the type of modest workers' housing that proliferated in Melbourne's inner suburbs in the late nineteenth century. Aesthetically, the house, with its adjacent bluestone laneway, is an important element in the streetscape.
