Philadelphia Mid-Century Modern McElroy House built by Robert McElroy

This 1940s mid-century home located in the middle of Warrandyte State Park near Melbourne, Australia, has had an extremely interesting history. The house and the block of housing surrounding it was originally built in the 1940s to serve as an alternative school. However, in the 1960s much of the premises was destroyed in a fire.

Back in 2011 (prior to our purchase of the house) we created several mock-up drawings to help vision how we might improve the front facade and maximize the mid century modern look we desired. Recently a key element of this plan was completed... a decorative wood screen was added that provides additional privacy for the front bedroom, provides additional sun protection, and adds depth to the house.
