ARCHITECTURE
Interwar, Simple Bungalow Porch House w Art Deco Adapt.
No 30 Marmion Street (was 72 pre 1939) is a single storey house constructed in timber framing and weatherboard cladding with a hipped tiled roof. It is an elaborate expression of an Inter-War Bungalow style with later modifications. The front elevation is asymmetrically planned with a pair of thrust bays and an addition to the east. The eastern thrust bay features a hipped verandah and a pair of double hung sash windows. The verandah is supported on Tuscan columns and brick piers. To the west of this verandah is another verandah. The western verandah is a skillion roofed verandah that wraps around the residence. The area of the verandah spanning between the two thrust bays has been filled in. The house sits on a corner lot between Marmion Street and Sewell Street. A garage to the rear of the lot addresses Sewell Street.
