ARCHITECTURE
No 193 Canning Highway is a single storey house constructed in limestone and brick with a hipped and gable corrugated iron roof. It is a fine expression of the Federation Arts and Crafts style. The front elevation is asymmetrically planned with a thrust gable bay and full width, return bull-nose roofed verandah. The verandah is supported on turned timber posts with post brackets. The half-timbered gable bay is set over a bay window. The bay window features several double hung sash windows. The entry door on the east elevation is flanked by casement windows. All openings have quoins. The roofscape features a pair of painted brick chimneys.
