Federation/ Federation Bungalow with Queen Anne Influences

No. 1 Osborne Road is a single-storey house constructed in tuck-pointed brick and rendered brick, with a hipped and gabled, tiled roof. It is a very fine expression of the Federation Queen Anne style. The place is located on a corner lot that addresses both Osborne Road and Canning Highway. The Canning Highway elevation is symmetrically composed with a full-width, return, hip-roofed verandah. The Osborne Road elevation is asymmetrically planned with a thrust gable bay and a part-width, return, hip-roofed verandah. The verandah is supported on timber posts with post brackets. The half-timbered gable bay jetties over a bay window. The bay window features multi-pane casements with hopper lights. There is a central entry door under a rendered archway. The door features hopper and sidelights. There is a roundel window on the Osborne Road frontage. The roof features finials, tiled crestings and tall tapered, roughcast rendered chimneys. There are render string courses.
