Wolston House, Heritage-listed farmhouse in Wacol, Australia

The two-story brick and sandstone residence features six main rooms, cellars, and wide verandas surrounding the central living areas.

Dr. Stephen Simpson constructed the initial two-room cottage in 1852, which Matthew Goggs later expanded into a substantial homestead during the 1860s.

The house displays period furnishings, including kitchen tools, dining silverware, a pianola, and authentic horsehair mattresses from the nineteenth century.

The National Trust of Queensland opens Wolston House to visitors on the first and third Sunday of each month from 10:00 am to 2:00 pm.

The property contains the oldest surviving residential farmhouse in Brisbane, with original basement spaces including a larder, meat room, and servants' quarters.
