Have you ever seen a Queenslander being moved? It is a sight that is relatively common in Queensland, where weatherboard houses are placed onto the back of trucks and moved to more convenient locations.
Wynnum, Brisbane Due to begin construction early 2026
The story of this house began a few streets away from where it lives now. Knowing that it had been moved, the new owner of this house searched Google Street view, travelling from street to street, until finally, she found its original location. There it had sat, a pre 1946 Queenslander, until it was moved in 2016 to make way for new apartments. The story of this house is long, and many people had called it home. Now, lovingly painted a sparking sapphire blue, all it was missing was a back deck.
At this house lives a couple, their playful dog and a very sleepy cat. Their journey had led them to a bayside location where their Queenslander house was making the most of the cooling sea breeze. The backyard is book marked by the house and a large Poinciana tree that provide privacy and shade to the cuttings and newly potted plants underneath. The new deck will sit to the north-east of the yard, capturing the morning sun. These clients wanted a deck that that looked like it had always been there.
This project is due to start construction early 2026.
