Tallis
East Melbourne, Albert Street 412, Mentmore
Description:
Modest single storey house but with extravagantly scaled 4 fluted composite columns to verandah across front, swags, etc. Eight rooms on land 33 feet by 160 feet.
History:
The house is listed in the rate books as being next door to the Medical Society and next door but one to the Victorian Artists Society, across Morrison Place. The Swedenborg Church is on the near corner but with an address in Morrison Place it is therefore not listed in the same sequence. However the photo clearly shows that Mentmore is next door to another small house, not the church.
