Welcome to the 'Malouf House', arguably one of Brisbane's finest examples of Art Deco architecture. Commissioned by the father of eminent Brisbane author David Malouf, this hillside residence spans three levels of double brick construction complete with stunning curves and historic deco features throughout, effortlessly enhanced by contemporary additions. Gun barrel views of the Brisbane river and sweeping Hamilton hill vistas can be enjoyed from the full floor rooftop entertaining area, accessed via a charming spiral staircase. Renovated in 1991 and again in 2012 by architect Philip Horwood, original character features and modern inclusions have been harmoniously balanced.
