It is one of the earliest dwellings built on Liverpool Street and one of three cottages constructed and leased, by Robert Anderson, before the property was sold and divided into two parcels in 1875.

32 Liverpool Street reflects the Regency style of architecture, featuring tall windows on both sides of the central entrance, and a hip roof.
