15 Rutland Street

Every time I walk past I've found this ramshackled house on Rutland Street quite fascinating. I sketched it some months ago but decided today to add a second colour to the sketch. It has been on the market for a long time and the garden is now even more overgrown. 

Constructed in 1957 it is apparently of architectural significance as a good example of a post-war house that demonstrates the influence of notable architects such as Robyn Boyd. I understand it had “heritage house” status. 

Hoping the owner will be able to sell soon!
