Newstead House Board of Trustees, Heritage building in Newstead, Australia.

Located on Breakfast Creek bank of Brisbane River, this brick and stone residence features Victorian architectural elements with white painted walls and dark trim details.

Built in 1846 as a Colonial-Georgian cottage for Patrick Leslie, the structure underwent multiple expansions and became Brisbane's oldest surviving European residential building.

The house museum contains over 6000 historical items that present the daily life and social customs of Brisbane's early colonial period.

Visitors can explore the house through guided or self-guided tours every Friday and Sunday, with temporary closure scheduled from December 20, 2024 to January 9, 2025.

The Queensland Parliament established a dedicated trust in 1939 to preserve and manage this historical residence, which served as quarters for American troops during World War II.
