East Melbourne, Wellington Parade 176, Mere House
Large stone house. Immediate neighbour of the Parade Hotel, on the eastern side.
So far it has not been possible to confirm the original owner of this house. Captain Arthur Devlin was there from 1857, then renting it out from 1859. Hugh George was owner and occupier from 1872. During Devlin's and George's time the house was known as Park Villa. James Mirams rented the house from 1888.
It was advertised for sale in 1904 under the name Rosenberg.
