I cannot find evidence that this building meets general notability. Only one trivial mention of the building was found on google news. The only source is only a brief overview of the building that does not establish it as particularly noteworthy. Elassint ^Hi 05:19, 9 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

weak keep There are sources that appear to indicate that "Oakover" is synonymous to the office of the CM for some (have added them). It also has mention over time - it was photographed in the 19th century, photos which have been on display or are archived at the V&A and the Getty. Therefore, I think there is a hint of notability, but it needs to be solidified. _pseudonym Jake Brockman ^talk 07:56, 9 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep -- Take a look at this GBooks search and it's clear that there are plenty of sources discussing this building. Note the necessity for quotes around the single word "Oakover" to avoid interference by "oak over". 192.160.216.52 (talk) 14:23, 9 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Looks historic, notable per this source in article, other. Looks equivalent to United States governors' houses, c.f. List of governors' mansions in the United States a list of current and former houses almost all of which have separate articles. --Doncram (talk) 02:16, 10 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Historic building and official residences of chief ministers are usually notable for that reason alone. -- Necrothesp (talk) 09:53, 13 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
