ARCHITECTURE
No 27 Bedford Street is a single storey house constructed in tuck pointed brick and rendered brick with a hipped and gable tiled roof. It is a fine expression of the Federation Bungalow style. The front elevation is symmetrically planned with a central door and hopper light flanked by sidelights and French windows. The facade features a full width skillion roofed verandah set on timber posts with post brackets. The entry gable would appear to be a later addition. The roofscape features a pair of rendered chimneys.
