Wyoming Cottage, Heritage residence in Wyoming, New South Wales, Australia

Wyoming Cottage is a John Verge-designed residence in the Narara Valley built with sandstock brick and stucco exterior. It features a central hallway plan, verandahs on the front and sides, timber fireplaces, marble surrounds, and French doors throughout.

Frederick Augustus Hely, Principal Superintendent of Convicts from 1823 to 1836, established the Wyoming farm in 1825 in the Narara Valley. The house reflects the building traditions and governance structure of the early colonial period in New South Wales.

The name Wyoming predates the U.S. state of that name, which was officially named in 1865. Frederick Augustus Hely likely took it from Thomas Campbell's 1809 poem Gertrude of Wyoming, set in Pennsylvania's Wyoming Valley. The suburb of Wyoming later took its name from the cottage and farm.

The cottage stands on a corner site at 1 Wyoming Road and the Pacific Highway, with the mature pines, jacarandas and figs mostly in front of the house and along the Wyoming Road boundary. It is a private residence, so visitors view it from the street and footpath. Hely's grave vault lies about 100 m from the house but is no longer part of the property.

Frederick Hely's body was buried in a family vault on the estate, about 100 metres from the house. The vault, designed by John Verge, survives but is no longer part of the property. The former stables, now called The Grange, also survive and are separately heritage-listed.
