22.01.2022 [Before & After] Sharing a love for art deco homes, in 1998 the current owners purchased this run down but original condition 1940 built modernist beauty. They spent a couple of years lovingly restoring the house and creating structured gardens, before engaging architect Paul Owen (Owen Architecture, formerly of Owen and Vokes) to undertake an extension opening up the back of the house creating a large open plan kitchen, family living space, dining room and undercover alfres...co entertaining area. A little more landscaping and the addition of a salt water pool and this home became the masterpiece it is today. The renovation was judged to have been very sympathetic to the original house and its modernist influences. As a result, it won the architect, Paul Owen, the States top accolades in 2005 including: (1) National Commendation - Residential, RAIA National Awards (2) Robin Dods Award for Residential Buildings, RAIA Queensland Architecture Awards (3) Residential Buildings Alterations and Additions Award, RAIA Queensland Architecture Awards (4) House of the Year, RAIA Queensland Architecture Awards (5) Regional Commendation, RAIA Queensland Architecture Awards It is with a very sad heart that the current owners are leaving this house and we want to do everything we can to find it a new custodian who will care for it and enjoy it as much as they have.

13.01.2022 [History of the Home] Constructed in 1940 by one of the owners of Queensland Land and Building Company (Leonard Birt) for himself.

Parapet roof Curves and glass bricks Streamlined façade with metal windows Recessed ceiling and wall lights The garage of the house was used as an air raid shelter in the war.
