Newstead House
Newstead House is Brisbane’s oldest domestic dwelling. It dates from 1846 when it was constructed for Patrick Leslie and has evolved from a simple Colonial Georgian cottage into the quintessential homestead of today.
It draws inspiration from the style of architecture found in bungalows on the Indian sub-continent. It is now a sprawling homestead with intricate balustrades, spacious verandahs and a vista that incorporates the Brisbane River, undulating parkland, elements of the Breakfast Creek Heritage Precinct and the changing suburbs of Hamilton, Bowen Hills, Bulimba and Newstead.
