Former Glenside resident Stan Juliff built this cottage as a retirement property for his aging parents. The Juliff’s were wealthy. They were former owners of Woodlawn, the grand Bannister homestead which once stood where Monterey Apartments are today.

The ceilings in the house are splendid examples of plasterwork in elaborate designs quite out of keeping with the cottage style exterior.

The house is believed to be the first one built in the subdivision of The Town Of Glenside in 1930.
