Situated in North Street on the three-acre allotment of Suburban Lot 1, it stands immediately behind the site of the former Queen's Head Hotel.

Little significant change has been made to the cottage over the years, apart from two relatively small timber additions to the side and rear.

It seems probable that Everett chose to live in this cottage while operating his business from the site of the Queen's Head Hotel.

Everett's son, George, arrived in 1864 and worked with his father in Toodyay before setting up his own farm in Beverley.
