Built around 1885 for Georgina Margaret Lindsay, this house was one of the earliest built in the popular Grove Estate, which was one of the first residential subdivisions in the Ashgrove area. The house was built at a time when Ashgrove was evolving from a rural to a residential suburb and is a good example of an 1880s middle-class dwelling.
