The street depicted could be Edwards Bay Road or most probably Awaba Road, which would mean the photo was not taken from the verandah of the house.
This photograph is one of 12 contained in an album titled ''Arundel' / Mosman".
When the house, Arundel, in Moruben Road Mosman, was offered at auction in December 1927 it was advertised as "occupying a picked position, convenient to trams, shops and beach; with a stone foundation, slate roof; containing hall, lounge and dining rooms, 4 bedrooms, breakfast room, kitchen, laundry and bathroom, verandahs front and rear; electric light and all conveniences" (Sydney Morning Herald 19 November 1927 p.24).
At the time this album was compiled, around 1929, Arundel was the home of Lawrence Stanley Jackson (1884-1974) and his wife Hazel Winifred nee Powell (1887-1939) and their four children. At that time Jackson was Assistant Deputy Commissioner in the Federal Taxation Department.
The house was probably built 1908-1911 by Mosman building contractors Helier Harbutt and his brother Percy Hawea Harbutt, architect unknown.
