Comments

The house is unusually decorative with a mansard roof and 'epitomises that boom period and the upward social mobility of the wealthy pastoralists who built these grand mansion' (Marsden, S., Stark, P. & Summerling, P. (eds) (1990) Heritage of the city of Adelaide, Corporation of the City of Adelaide: 212).

Architect NameJoachimi, Gustav Carl
