Federation Period c.1895-c.1915
As the 1890s economic depression of the eased by the mid-1890s, expressions of Australian nationalism gathered strength culminating in the proclamation of the Commonwealth of Australia on 1 January 1901 (Federation). With more favourable economic conditions, building activity recommenced.
 * Federation style housing is featured in many parts of Strathfield Municipality.
 * **Heritage conservation areas** such as Redmyre Road and Churchill Avenue are primarily Federation period.

Federation Queen Anne Style
 The Federation Queen Anne style was the dominant style in Australian residential architecture.
 * This style is asymmetrical with an ensemble of varied roof shapes.
 * These houses are brick with painted timber detailing and elements and typically set within a picturesque garden.
 * These houses feature a verandah with timber posts and ornamental brackets, balustrades and valances.
 * Federation Queen Anne is featured prominently in the Churchill Avenue, Homebush Road and Redmyre Road Heritage Conservation Areas.

**Federation Arts and Crafts Style **
The Federation Arts and Crafts is represented in Strathfield, though less frequently than the Queen Anne and Bungalow styles.
 * The roof is a dominant element, featuring gables and/or hips of medium to steep pitch and prominent eaves.
 * <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">These houses have tall, tapering chimneys and bay windows.
 * <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">Pebblecast stucco was commonly used as a exterior wall finish, together with other materials having earthy, natural colours and textures.
 * <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">Gardens are an important element.

== <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #333333; display: block; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">**Federation Bungalow Style** == <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #333333; display: block; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">There are many examples of Federation Bungalows in the Strathfield Local Government Area. This style appears late in the Federation period and the design represents a transition from the more ornate Queen Anne style into the Interwar period that followed.
