ARCHITECTURE

Federation / Gothic Influences

No. 47 (previously was no. 89) Glyde street is one of a pair of residences constructed in limestone and brick with a hipped corrugated iron roof. It is a good example of a Federation Bungalow style duplex half house. Unlike its neighbour at No 45 Glyde Street there is no infill to the verandah. The original front door and hopper light and flanking window have been retained. The facade features a full width bullnose roofed verandah supported between flanking parapet walls.
