Swire exec house at 53 Stubbs Road [????-c.2006] | Gwulo: Old Hong Kong

Swire exec house at 53 Stubbs Road [????-c.2006]

Current condition: 
Demolished / No longer exists
Date Place demolished: 
c.2006-01-01 (Year, Month, Day are approximate)

Now the Opus, but previously a Swire house used by it execs.

I can find no other info on it other than from the Opus brochure that mentions it became Swire property sometime in the 1940s. It appears to have been around right up until demolition to make way for the Opus. It appears on 2005 aerial images but is gone by 2008 so I've set the demolition date to 2006 unless someone is able to narrow it down further.

Does anyone have any other images?

In 1963 it appeared (partially) in a German film: Weiße Fracht für Hongkong
