Casa Grande, Mount Isa, Heritage-listed residence in Mount Isa, Australia.

Casa Grande features Spanish Mission architecture with Denaro brick walls, terracotta roof tiles, and timber framed sash windows at 7 Nettle Street.

The residence was constructed in 1949 for Julius Kruttschnitt II, General Manager of Mount Isa Mines, during the post-World War II mining expansion period.

The property became a central location for Mount Isa social events, hosting mining company celebrations and accommodating visiting dignitaries through the decades.

The Queensland Heritage Register listed Casa Grande on May 28, 1999, preserving its architectural elements and historical significance for future generations.

Queen Elizabeth II stayed at Casa Grande during her visit to Mount Isa in 1970, with special accommodations prepared for the royal occasion.
