Cora Lynn - Physical Description 1
Cora Lyn is a single-storey rendered masonry house with a slate M-shaped hip roof. It has a broad verandah that wraps around the entire house. The verandah has an unusual latticework frieze and pairs of posts with a curved piece between them in each bay. The windows are double-hung sashes. The front door has red flashed and cut glass sidelights. The house has six rendered chimneys with moulded cornices. Many interior features have been retained, such as marble mantelpieces, plaster cornices and ceiling centres.
The verandah has been reroofed with Colourbond. The rear verandah has been enclosed to form a kitchen, sunroom and bathrooms. The verandah floor has been concreted over brick foundations
The site also contains brick servants' quarters with one- and two-storey sections, both with slate roofs. The windows are six-pane paired casements. The external bricks have been painted.
An early dairy survives on the site, though the original stables were replaced in the 1950s.Heritage Study and Grading
