Gold Creek Homestead, Colonial homestead in Ngunnawal, Australia

The Gold Creek Homestead complex encompasses four buildings, including a main house, stone cottage, buggy shed, and function center on 41 hectares of land.

Edmund Rolfe established Gold Creek in 1857 after arriving from Norfolk, England, developing it into the largest rural property in the Ginninderra district at 1,594 hectares.

The stone buildings and gardens of Gold Creek Homestead maintain historical elements that reflect early Australian agricultural practices and settlement patterns.

Keyton developers plan to transform the stone cottage into a community space for exhibitions and meetings while preserving the original architectural features.

During the 1890s depression, the Rolfe family expanded their holdings by acquiring neighboring farms, growing their property to 3,940 acres by 1907.
