This house was built by John Colling, a retired farmer, in 1879. Descendants of Mr. Colling still reside in the Lowville area and the Powys (present owner and resident) family has owned and resided in this house for three generations. This two storey brick house has a decorative brick pattern, quoins and lighter brick trim. The house has a medium gable roof with off-centre gable, projecting eaves, plain fascia, soffit and moulded frieze. The windows are segmental with voussoirs, lug sills, a semi-circular window and a front bay. The central doorway has shaped glass and wood trim and the open recessed verandah has oric piers, open railing and moulded wood trim. Heritage Milton LACAC has indicated that this house is in excellent condition and is a good example of an early town home and that all features have been maintained in the original form.
