Should we preserve 728 Pennant Hills Road by Michael Dysart?

This house, a simple house in Carlingford has been transformed into a conventional house. I could not imagine people traveling to view a house, with the intent of thinking it's something to be prized.

Is it a case of being nostalgic about a past becuase it's the financial and economic rational McMansion that is the dominant house type. 

The idea of space within a house these days would be regarded as a luxury, for somebody who can afford it.

Is the loss of one building a los at all? After all, it's only a building that people live in. Something that shows how Australia embraced internationalism and incorporated it's own vernacular.
