Stroud House, Heritage-listed residence in Stroud, Australia

Stroud House stands at 42 Cowper Street with its two storeys, attached servant quarters, front and rear verandahs, and three aligned brick chimneys.

The Australian Agricultural Company built this residence between 1827 and 1839 using convict labor, with modifications directed by Captain Sir Edward Parry in 1832.

The building represents early colonial architecture through its hand-made convict-built bricks, red cedar joinery, and traditional construction methods of New South Wales.

The property maintains many original features despite numerous renovations, including updated electrical systems and a new corrugated iron roof for preservation purposes.

Underground grain storage silos constructed by convicts in 1841 remain near the house, demonstrating the agricultural focus of early colonial settlements.
