Toxteth Park, Glebe, Heritage house in Glebe, Australia.
The three-story mansion features multiple buildings, gardens, and traditional architectural details that represent early Australian colonial residential construction.
John Verge designed and constructed this residence in 1829 for George Allen, who acquired 96 acres of land in the Glebe district.
The property transformed from a private residence to a Catholic institution in 1901 when the Sisters of the Good Samaritan established their congregational center.
The building operates as part of St Scholastica's College and accepts reservations for small group historical tours of the premises.
The estate included additional houses named Tranby and Emslee, built by George Allen during his ownership of the property.
