HOUSE - Physical Description 1
139 Glenroy Road is a single storey polychrome Italianate villa with a hipped slated roof with bracketed eaves, ornate return cast iron verandah clad with corrugated galvanised iron roofing. Windows are double-hung sashes, and a bay window faces the street. The chimney stacks have rendered moulded cappings.
Landscape: The significant landscape associated with 139 Glenroy Road consists of a number of remnant trees and shrubs from the early history of the area. They consist of two notable specimen trees, Desert Ash (Fraxinus oxycarpa) and Pepper Tree (Schinus molle var. areira), as well as a mature, clipped Sweet Pittosporum (Pittosporum undulatum) hedge.
The remnant trees and hedge planting are of local interest as plantings from the early history of the site. They assist in providing an appropriate setting for a locally significant house, and contribute to the amenity of the surrounding landscape.
