Kilcoy Homestead, Heritage homestead in Winya, Somerset Region, Australia

The single-story brick residence features an L-shaped layout with Georgian architectural elements, enclosed verandahs, and English Bond brickwork construction methods.

Brothers Evan and Colin Mackenzie from Scotland established Kilcoy as a sheep station in 1841, constructing the first head station as a simple slab hut.

The property stands as evidence of early European settlement patterns in Queensland, reflecting the architectural preferences of British colonists in rural Australia.

Located on Kilcoy-Murgon Road, the homestead remains a private residence and requires prior permission for any visits or photography sessions.

The grounds contain several mature Bunya Pines planted during the initial development period, connecting the present landscape to its colonial past.
