History

The property is associated with the theme of the development of the local residential area known as ‘Brantwood’, an early 20th century residential subdivision. The original homes, including the subject house, were built with influences from the Arts and Crafts era, creating a defined look for the subdivision. The subject property still retains exterior heritage elements that have contributed to the neighbourhood’s Arts and Crafts character over the last 100 years and its presence continues to contribute to the character of the historic subdivision.

Heritage attributes

The Robertson House is a representative example of an early 1900s Period Revival house with elements of Tudor Revival and English Cottage styles. The house was built in 1922 with design elements from these styles, such as: side gabled roof with jerkinhead gables and dormer; a covered entrance porch; a mix of materials including wood, brick, and stucco; multipaned wooden windows; decorative brick details around the windows, porch and roofline; rustic wooden elements such as timbers under the roof, wooden soffits, and exposed eaves; front porch with bell-cast roof, decorative wooden pillars and a panelled wooden door flanked by elegant sidelights; and lakestone knee wall.
