Built in 1949 and altered in 1972, this building is a new addition to the Open House program and can be explored in conjunction with the main house.

Address: 22 Gardenia Grove, Sandy Bay

Highlights: Fort, conversation pit, small design and views.

Building specs: Type: Fort & House. Year Built: 1904 (Fort Nelson) 1949, 1972 (Dorney Flat). Architect: Esmond Dorney
