BRAESIDE - Physical Description 1
"Braeside" at 52 Radovick Street, Korumburra is a large single storey weatherboard Transitional villa with a flat topped hip roof surmounted by a small hipped clear storey lantern, which lights a traverse internal hallway. It has an asymmetrical front with three, three-part double hung windows and a large and elaborate recessed door case with sidelights between the left side windows.
A wide bullnose verandah crosses the front of the house and returns to a projecting hip at the north side. This is intersected by a slightly projecting bullnose gablet opposite the entry door. The northern room, accessed from the end of the hall is a large billiard room. Other notable elements include:- Corbelled and tabbed brick chimneys.
- Exposed rafter ends.
- Paired turned verandah posts andpre-1901,Ballarat-stylecast iron frieze and timber brackets.
- The elaborate arched hallway and original bell pulls.
- Substantial convex cornices in the billiard room.
The front fence, though sympathetic, is not original. There are three large Norfolk Island pines in the front garden area, which were presumably planted at the time that the house was built.Heritage Study and Grading
