ARCHITECTURE
Late Interwar, Bungalow Porch House
No 31 Fraser Street is a single storey house constructed in limestone brick and rendered brick with a hipped corrugated iron roof, replacing the original tiled roof. It is a fine expression of the Inter-War Porch style. There have been extensive modifications to the house with rear additions including a carport to the side. It is asymmetrically composed with a hip roofed porch supported on rendered masonry piers. The porch sits proud of the house. There is a pair of central lead light doors flanked by groups of double hung sashes and fixed light window arrangements with lead lights. Features include rendered architraves and quoining around windows.
