HISTORY

As soon as you enter this 1850s convict-built building you will be charmed by its history. The downstairs loungeroom was originally a schoolroom for the property’s children. They were tutored sitting by the fireplace in the late 1800s. Near the stairs, you will see where the current family kept their horse bridles and saddles in the 1950s and they still remain there today.

One of the bedrooms is the original stables Tool Room (or workshop), and another was the Chaff Room where hay and feed for the horses were kept. The spacious loft upstairs provided additional storage for fodder and grain, and these days it is used as a large third bedroom / sitting area for visiting families and children.
