Description

Nos. 46 and 48 Raby Way are a pair of detached houses built between 1979 and 1982 by Ralph Erskine's Arkitektkontor, with Vernon Gracie as the site architect and structural engineering by White, Young and Partners. The main contractor was Stanley Miller Ltd.

The houses are constructed from pale yellow metric modular brick on a concrete block base, featuring weatherboard cladding and Marley Modern tiled roofs. They rise to three storeys, with a single-storey outshut on the side of No. 48. The frontages facing Raby Way include small areas of blue weatherboarding on the second floors, red doors, and metal door hoods. The frontages to Raby Street and Mason Street display red-brown weatherboarding on the first floor and blue weatherboarding on the second, topped with bright blue weatherboarded eaves. All windows are made of timber with timber surrounds, and they include aluminium opening lights, along with round porthole windows on the outshut.

The interiors have not been inspected. These houses are a notable feature in the square outside Avondale House.
