Strathearn, Alderley, Heritage listed building in Alderley, Australia

The Strathearn building stands as a one-story timber-framed cottage with a hipped roof extending over the front verandah at 107 Evelyn Street.

The cottage was constructed between 1919 and 1939 as part of the Anzac Cottage scheme, providing homes for widows and dependents of soldiers from World War I.

The Queensland War Council initiated this housing program through the Golden Casket lottery funds, using donated land and volunteer labor for construction.

The building requires preservation according to heritage conservation guidelines, as it remains one of the few surviving examples of Anzac Cottages in Brisbane.

By 2000, Strathearn became the final Anzac Cottage built on donated land to be sold, marking the end of an era in Queensland's social housing history.
