      HOUSE - Physical Description 1

      The dwelling at 33 Radovick Street, Korumburra is a late Victorian asymmetrical villa with a projecting bay with a further octagonal full height bay extending at the front. It has a corrugated iron roof and false ashlar (block fronted) weatherboards at the front and a bullnose front verandah.
      Other notable elements include: - Corbelled brick chimneys with a diagonal course below the cornice.
      - Heavily decorated eaves with paired brackets and "cricket bat" moulds.
      - Moulded dentils below the verandah gutter board.
      - Turned verandah posts (probably not original).
      - Pressed metal hoods over the octagonal bay windows.
      - Heavily moulded architraves and bracketed sills to the single double hung windows.
      - A wide door casing with panelled door, side-lights and strong cornice.
      The dwelling is substantially intact, although it is probable that cast iron decoration to the verandah has been removed, and the verandah posts appear to have been replaced. The brick front fence although of fine design is not in character.
