Broadwood Road came into existence in 1915. It was a development of colonial-style houses, either bungalows or two-storey villas, on a ridge overlooking the Happy Valley Racecourse.
Number 7 was a two-storey villa. These houses typically had several rooms with a kitchen, two bathrooms and servants' quarters at the rear. It seems to have had a roofline ornate with finials.
Number 7 suffered a rock-fall in 1926, making it uninhabitable, and it seems to have been cleared circa 1927 when a large Chinese family mansion was built on the site of #6 which seems to have extended to where #7 was.
