Abercrombie House

Abercrombie House is a stone mansion in Bathurst with curved roofs and decorative iron details. The building sits on an expansive property and features sandstone trim on its outer walls.

William Stewart arrived in Australia in 1825 and later received land in Bathurst as payment for his work in colonial government. The house was built during this period as a family residence.

The rooms display furniture and objects that show how wealthy people lived during the early colonial period in Australia. Walking through them helps you understand the daily world of a prosperous family from that era.

The house opens on specific days and can be visited with guided tours. Check ahead before your visit to find a time that works for you.

The entrance gates originally came from a park in Sydney dating to 1829 and were brought here after the park was sold in 1901. These historic gates now form the main entrance to the grounds.
