Naldham House

Naldham House is a heritage-listed multi-level dining venue, located at 33 Felix Street, Brisbane, Australia.

[1] In July 2024, Naldham House reopened to the public as a multi-level dining venue after an extensive refurbishment by DEXUS and DAP and Co. Hospitality.

The building was built initially in 1864, extended in the late 1870s, but substantially rebuilt in 1889 for the Australian United Steam Navigation Company.

[1] In August 1888 architects McCredie Bros & Chambers called tenders for the extension of the Felix Street offices of the AUSN.

At a cost of £11,000 the upper storey was demolished and two new floors were added, a tower and cupola built into the northern end, a balcony included in the Mary Street side and new entrances formed.

[1] In 1914, MacDonald Hamilton & Co became agents for AUSN and instigated internal renovations (c. 1915–20), including silky oak panelling on the first floor.

[1] In 1988–1989 major alterations and additions were undertaken as part of the incorporation of the building in the new riverside development, Waterfront Place.

In May 2015, the club was facing debts and decided to wind up, after accepting an unsolicited offer of $10 million from Singapore developer and hotelier Koh Wee Meng.

[5] Naldham House, located on the corner of Mary and Felix Street, is a three storeyed rendered brick building with basement.

Naldham House provides evidence of major shipping activity along the town reach and of the former prominence of the Australian United Steam Navigation Company in Queensland's maritime industry[1] The place is important in demonstrating the principal characteristics of a particular class of cultural places.
