Built in 1900 or earlier, Lumeah is of high local significance as an externally intact example of the modest weatherboard cottages that were once a feature of Berwick and helped give the township a rural character. The building is individually listed in the Casey Heritage Overlay (HO90)
In September 2022, the VHRF Committee of Management agreed to offer a grant of $10,000 towards replacement of the existing roof cladding on the condition that it is replaced with traditional galvanised iron in short sheets to match the existing.
The works were completed in June 2023 and the roof cladding replacement works retain the original appearance of the dwelling and ensure its protection into the future.
