Blundells Cottage, Stone cottage near Lake Burley Griffin, Canberra, Australia.
The six-roomed stone cottage stands on the northern shore of Lake Burley Griffin, featuring traditional colonial architecture and period furniture.
Built in 1858 for ploughman William Ginn, the cottage later became home to the Blundell family who lived there for 60 years.

The structure remains one of the few intact stone buildings from its era in the Australian Capital Territory, saved from demolition in 1958.
