Statement of Significance
Statement of Significance as recorded under the Queenscliff Heritage Study 2009
No. 31 Learmonth Street is of local historical and architectural significance as a representative and largely intact example of an unpretentious house type typical of the 1860s-70s in Queenscliff. It is also of historical interest for its association with original owner, local butcher Thomas Arkins. The property remained in the ownership of the Arkins family from the time of its construction until well into the twentieth century.

Extract from the 2009 study
No. 31 Learmonth Street is a gable roofed, single-storey stuccoed brick cottage with parapeted end gable walls. The stucco is ruled as ashlar and a concave roof verandah, which was formerly striped, runs across the street facade supported on turned timber posts. The adjoining public car park to the north of the property also provides access to the rear of the site which includes an additional building (not surveyed).
Alterations include replacement of the verandah posts and the front door. A timber picket fence and gate to the front of the property have also been reinstated since 1984. The later rear extensions are visible along the north elevation but are sympathetic in form and scale to the original building.
