OK I’m back. This one from Pete F seems appropriate during the political turmoil. First, this hideous mausoleum of a house would be a worst anywhere, secondly it’s in Rockingham, and third, it has an anarchist symbol scratched into the concrete outside. No-one comes out of this looking good.

…And potentially registered lawns!
Gadzooks!
I’d always arrogantly assumed Rockingham was home of the bogan. I had no idea people of class and sophistication lived there too.
As in anarchists?
In a Rockingham context it is anarchic architecture. Check out those eaves.
Hang on, Rockingham didn’t even exist (as a ‘locality’) in the 18th. century.
Holy snappin’ Duckshit!
Dr. Who, that’s what.
classy as…
Nothing says class like pencil pines.
I am disappointed that the owner’s initials were not incorporated into the cast iron gate
this is how you do it:

Hell, yes.
Just wrote to you confirming tshirt size. Not sure which is your realest address.
Definitely gmail. Hotmail is just for junk.
If I ruled the world, cashed up bogans would be ineligible to purchase a property or home with any historial or architectural significance. Strictly circa 1990 onwards.
I wish I knew more architecture terms.
What are the six pointy things on the roof?
a finial type of thing, i think.
I think they are similar urns to those that adorn the gateposts
possibly containing the cremated remains of anarchists and other envious riff-raff
One hopes this was built by Palladio Homes.
Gargoyles.
i can’t see a spout.
perhaps you mean grotesques?
Bloody architects.
how’s that black skivvy?
I keep hoping the vines will flourish & make it look like a ruin.
That central frieze-horses, chariots & swords. Can’t tell from the street if it’s Ramses or Ben Hur.
Oh, didn’t really notice the frieze. Do I have a larger shot from you Pete. Will have a look and see if I can get some detail.
Added a closer view, but still not clear. Looks like one horse throwing a hoof over another to me.
that is so, so shit
it’s Damien Oliver
Had a sudden thought. Is this Mark McGowan’s house? I know he has delusions of grandeur…
I always imagined his architectural taste to lean towards Albert Speer
there would be eagles
So you’re thinking that he would furnish like this?
absolutely, he would stand behind it and practice giving speeches into the mirror
Surely this is more like the whole package.

I thought that was McGowan in one of the photos but it was just Himmler again
it’s an easy mistake to make
And yet for all its brooding balconies, the 3pm sun is still gonna fry those motherfuckers
‘…nestled between a truck differential heavy machine shop and a Tannery, this circa 2005 gem has a full strip of Fast Food outlets just 1 minute away. The discerning buyer also need not worry about convenient access to firearms outlets or $2 shops as Rockingham central is…’
All I can imagine is having a showdown with a badly disfigured (possibly albino) serial killer on the roof of that place. The whole thing ends with him impaled on one of those urns.
I’m no expert but I’d say this is an excellent example of early 21st century Greco-Bogan.
Flash as a rat with a gold tooth.
That looks like a copy of the Elgin Marbles. Can we get a close-up ? you might be able to see the genitalia of the boys riding the horses.
Old skool footpath!
