Osler House, Townsville, Heritage building in Sturt Street, Townsville, Australia.

The two-story Osler House features Italianate architecture with consulting rooms on the ground floor and residential spaces on the upper level.

The structure, completed in 1899, served as both a medical practice and residence before becoming the Commercial Travellers Association club from 1901 to 1906.

The building received its name in the 1930s, paying tribute to Sir William Osler, who established methods for clinical medical training.

Located at 35 Sturt Street, the building includes a separate brick structure at the rear that contained the original kitchen and servant quarters.

Dr Gordon Ross, who established the Lister Hospital, predecessor to the Mater Misericordia Hospital, purchased this property in 1919.
