    La Rundel is a large attic style house, constructed of roughcast rendered brickwork with Tudoresque half-timbering in the gables and fish-scale shingling to the window bays. The roof is clad with Marseilles-pattern tiles and has exposed rafter ends. Alterations include a skillion roofed addition to the south, obscuring a pair of gabled dormer windows, and the replacement of some of the original glazing.

    Ivanhoe and Heidelberg went through a period of rapid expansion after the extension of the railway in 1901. La Rundel is one of the larger early 20th century buildings erected in the area. It was built for one of the number of successful Melbourne businessmen who moved to the area and was the home of a prominent Australian, Dr. Kenny.
