A visit to Calthorpes’ House will take you back to the time when the Calthorpe Family lived in the house.

Original furnishings, household appliances and photos reflect the fashionable ideal of style and taste in the middle class Australian home of the late 1920s.

Calthorpes’ House offers a range of popular community programs and learning programs throughout the year.
