The house was erected in 1902 1903 by Mr. Ram (B.0.0. 6137). It is constructed of brick with wooden floors and tiled roof. It is in fair condition throughout. A considerable portion of the joinery is of teak, and the main beams are steel. The floor joists are China Fir, some of which are decayed; the ceilings are of plaster, which in some cases is very defective. There is no electric wiring in the house. The exterior is some- what dilapidated. The Lot is a small one so the garden is very limited in extent. The building is somewhat close to the hill- side and the back portions are therefore damp.
2.
The house contains, on the ground floor, dining and
drawing rooms; staircase hall; some closed-in verandahs, end
offices.
On the first floor 4 bedrooms, with bathrooms and
some closed-in verandahs.
A basement about 6'0" high extends under about one-
half of the building.
There is a detached block of servants' quarters.
3. The house has been renovated from time to time but a
considerable gum will have to be spent on decorations, renewal
of floor joists, ceilings etc. in the course of a few years,
4. The premises are assessed @ 82, 160. After deducting Crown rent, insurance, & repairs, and capitalizing @ 71% the
value of the premises is.
