Double fronted brick house built as four rooms and later extended to seven.
The four roomed house was built for William Klaws by Philip Orleman and completed in 1865. The address in the Building Register was given as Jolimont Square and for two years the Rate Books gave the address as Jolimont Road. Agnes Street was yet to come. In 1888 the number of rooms was increased to seven. The additions may have coincided with William Klaws moving out to Studley Park and leaving his son, William Henry in residence. William Henry died in 1898 aged only 38. He was foreman at McCarron Bird & Co., a printing and publishing company.
The house was demolished, along with its three neighbours to the north and was replaced by the exisitng warehouse, now known as Marlion House.
1864-c1887: William Klaws
1888-1898: William Henry Klaws, foreman
