The house is definitely the original concession building with extensions added.

Operated by Ace Theatres. The architect was W & G Leighton. The Avonway Drive-in was built on shire land(Shire of Northam). Closed in 1983.

I don’t see any building but I do see the cement foundations of the leg supports for the screen in the corner.

There is now a second building where the screen used to be.

A Google street view from 2018 shows no indication of a screen remaining.

I think it has the Avon River running behind the site?

Address is 185 Mitchell Avenue, Northam. The entrance road and ticket booth base is still there. The house on the site might be the original snack bar(and bio box?) building?
