Statement of Significance

"Yaralla" at 162 McKinnon Road was built in 1917, its comparatively early date in the area also recalling the first stages in the acceptance of the Californian Bungalow as a suburban house type in contrast to the then popular Federation villa. "Yaralla" is locally noteworthy as an early and distinctive example of a Californian Bungalow.
