Vogel House, Heritage building in Lower Hutt, New Zealand
The neo-Georgian residence at 75 Woburn Road features English architectural elements with distinctive design by architect Heathcote Helmore and construction by Walter Dyer.
Built in 1933 for James and Jocelyn Vogel, the house later served as the official residence of New Zealand Prime Ministers from 1977 to 1984.
The property represents the architectural preferences of affluent New Zealand families during the 1930s, incorporating traditional English design elements into local construction.
Visitors can access the property through Woburn Road, and the current owners plan to organize public open days following the completion of renovation works.
Queen Elizabeth II visited this residence during Robert Muldoon's tenure as Prime Minister, marking its role in New Zealand's diplomatic relations.
