The property was subdivided in the early 1890s although the majority of the street was not developed until the early 1900s. House, 3 Rose Street was built in 1894/95 for Richard Cooper, who was listed in the rate book as a blacksmith and then an engineer. Cooper lived in the house until c. 1905, although he owned it until c. 1924. Cooper was also responsible for the construction of the three terraces at 5, 7 and 9 Rose Street. A sewerage diagram dated 1907 shows a large brick house with a projecting front room to the west and a half length front verandah. There was a separate toilet and well in the back yard, and a large open shed set against the rear boundary. The front of the property had a substantial fence along the boundary. In 1924/25, ownership passed to Violet Atwell, who continued to lease the house to tenants. Ms Attwell owned the property until at least the early 1950s. She also owned the terraced cottages at 5, 7 and 9 Rose Street during this time. By 1986, the property was owned by Harry Clayton and the terraced cottages were in separate ownership. By 1978, the façade had been painted and the verandah roof replaced with tile. By 1993, the paint had been removed to reveal a limestone house with brick quoins to the windows, doors and corners. The roof had been replaced with Colorbond. This place was included in the list of heritage places in the City of Fremantle identified by the Fremantle Society (1979/80) - BROWN -significant for making a positive contribution to the built environment of Fremantle.
