    CORANDERK - Physical Description 1

    BUILDINGS: Coranderk is a bungalow style residence of red and clinker brick, with a glazed Marseilles pattern tiled hipped roof. The brick verandah piers are of heavy proportions, characteristic of the style. Patterned brickwork is used extensively, with red brick quoining, soldier courses under openings and in a herringbone pattern in the front fence. The semi-circular attic has leadlighted casements, shingled lower walls and a hipped tiled roof. LANDSCAPE: The garden features a number of prominent plantings. They are four Canary Island Date Palm (Phoenix canariensis) on the nature strip, and three mature Italian Cypress (Cupressus sempervirens) located within the garden on the western side. The property is surrounded by a notable low brick wall, which features a clinker brick insert. The wall extends into the neighbouring southern property, which suggests the garden has been truncated at some stage. The main entrance to the property is via a brick and timber pergola on the north western corner, which is a typical feature of an inter-War garden. Garden beds within the property feature low stone retaining walls, which cater to the gently sloping site. The prominence of the bold planting design within the streetscape, and unusual detail in the garden wall makes Coranderk a significant local garden.
