Inter-War Old English 'Stockbroker's Tudor'

Estimated Value $2,200,000 - $2,899,999 (Oct 2018)
470 Magill Road KENSINGTON GARDENS
This is a freestone house in the tudor fashion, with attractive gable work and matching wall. The Tudor design delighted in the use of clinker bricks and in matching fences like that of 470 Magill Road (now demolished - compare 1986 and 2018 illustrations).
Burnside Heritage
The development of the new housing estates of Toorak Gardens and Springfield entailed strict design standards which suited a preference for English vernacular revival styles.
Toorak Gardens attracted a steady stream of business and professional people all eager for the new styles of Californian bungalow and Tudor, and rejecting the previous favourite of the gentlemen's returned verandah (Federation) villa.
From the late 1920s and throughout the 1930s the Tudor style re-appeared as a decorative accessory to the basic bungalow design and is easily distinguished by the high pitched roof, steep gables and more or less ornate chimneys.
The Tudor delighted in the use of clinker bricks as shown by 51 West Terrace, in matching fences like that of 470 Magill Road and could accommodate two stories as at 344 Glynburn Road.
Two red brick, Federation styled houses on triangular blocks opposite Attunga are signature examples of picturesque design and siting by Architect Eric Phillipps Danker.
Marryatville is a remarkably consistent suburb of Californian and Tudor style bungalows with few intrusive elements. Indeed there is one precinct which has such a high concentration of Tudor bungalows that the cumulative effect is a powerful statement of the dominant architectural preferences of the 1930s.
This precinct is bounded by Greenhill Road to the south and encompasses all of Burke and Kennaway Streets and the southernmost blocks along Brandreth and Lynington Streets.
Designated a local heritage area it deserves particular care from the council and its residents as its impact and value lie in the retention of such high numbers of Tudor bungalows which have undergone little or no alteration and each of which reinforces the overall character.
