| Last updated on - January 1, 2008 The following wording is from the Allom and Lovell Building Citation, 1998 for the property. Please note that this is a "Building Citation", not a "Statement of Significance". For further information refer to the Building Citation held by the City of Yarra. History: The house at 233 Langridge Street, Abbotsford, was built for Abraham Howgate before 1870. The Rate Books for 1871 list Howgate, a publican, as the owner and occupier of a brick house, valued at ?32. Langridge Street is not listed in the directories prior to that year. In subsequent years, the house was occupied variously by Howgate, Joseph Howgate, a barman, and Louis Wusterman, a gentleman. By 1879, Howgate was also the owner of vacant land adjoining this house. Description: The house at 233 Langridge Street is a single-storey, double-fronted detached brick villa, and has a hipped roof with bracketed eaves. The house is set back from the street, and has a symmetrical front elevation with a central four-panelled door flanked by single-pane, double-hung sash windows. The door has glazed narrow sidelights and a highlight. All openings have moulded rendered architraves, and windows have bluestone sills with moulded brackets. There are shallow rendered pilasters at either end of the facade. Alterations include the painting of the tuck pointed brickwork, the replacement of the original roofing with glazed terracotta tiles, removal of the front verandah and replacement of the original front fence with a low brick fence. Significance: The house at 233 Langridge Street, Abbotsford, is of local architectural significance. The house is an unusual example of a 19th century single-storey double fronted Italianate style villa in the area, and makes a positive contribution to the streetscape. |
