On his death in 1897 the wealthy philanthropist Thomas Elder left a bequest of £25,000 expressly to provide housing, "libraries, schools, infant nurseries, laundries, baths and washhouses and for any other purpose tending in the opinion of the trustees to the health and moral welfare of working men and working women".

The bequest resulted in the formation of Adelaide Workmen's Homes Inc., and the trustees engaged architects Edward Davies and Charles Walter Rutt to design a model estate of low-cost rental housing in Rose Street, Mile End, which was built in 1901–2.

The development consisted of two rows of semi-detached cottages facing each other across the street.

They are collectively listed among the 120 nationally significant 20th-century buildings in South Australia
