ARCHITECTURE
Inter-War Bungalow w Federation Influences
No 9 View Terrace is a single storey house constructed in limestone, rendered brick with a hipped tiled roof. It is a fine expression of the Inter-War Bungalow style. The front elevation is asymmetrically planned with a thrust bay and a full width return broken back roofed verandah. The verandah is supported on piers with scribed tops. A masonry balustrade spans between the piers. The verandah roof extends across the thrust bay to a garage addition to the east. The place sits on limestone foundations. The roofscape features tall rendered chimneys.
