ARCHITECTURE
Federation / Domestic Carpenter
No. 62 (previously was no. 124) King Street is a single storey cottage constructed in timber framing and weatherboard cladding with a hipped corrugated iron roof. It is a simple expression of the Federation Bungalow style with later modifications. The front elevation is symmetrically planned with a central door and hopper light flanked by sidelights and double hung sash windows. The facade features a full width skillion roofed verandah supported on timber posts over a timber floor. A St. Andrew’s cross balustrade spans between the timber posts. The house is set above the garden. Limestone steps lead from the garden to the verandah.
