Last Listing description (December 2025)
Designed in 1938 by respected Brisbane architect J.R.C. Blanche for the original owners, Mr and Mrs T. M. McCaul, this remarkable home stands today as one of Clayfield's most intact and significant examples of Interwar Modernist architecture. Featured in the Courier Mail on 27 February 1940 in the article "Climate Dictates Design", the home was recognised for its innovative response to Queensland's lifestyle, with the journalist noting: "Interior spaciousness, wide windows, ample protection of porches, windows and verandahs from the sun… basic essentials in an ideal Queensland home."
Blending Art Deco, Streamline Moderne, and early Functionalist design cues, the property captures the elegance, craftsmanship and forward-thinking philosophy of its era - a truly rare offering in one of Clayfield's most desirable streets.
Why 27 Roseby Street is Irreplaceable - Homes of this calibre - architect-designed, historically documented, and carrying intact Art Deco and Moderne detailing - seldom come to market. Positioned in a tightly held Clayfield pocket, the property offers unmatched architectural presence, structural solidity, and the opportunity to steward one of Brisbane's most distinctive Interwar residences into its next chapter
