      BUILDING: East View is sited on the side of a hill which slopes down from the street. The house has many details typical of Annear's Arts and Crafts mode, including half timbering, rough cast stucco, weatherboarded dado, horizontal groupings of casement windows and bracketed window hoods. A large, broad gable encompasses the house, and chimneys are of red brick with rendered caps and terracotta chimney pots. Angled bays and an irregular shaped verandah forming an extension of the corrugated iron roof are additional characteristic features. LANDSCAPE: The house orchard survives to the south-east and variegated Pittosporum bushes are dotted along the boundary by a wire fence of a later vintage.
