Couldrey House
The actual building of Couldrey House and what successive owners have done with it is more interesting than its Victorian authenticity. It produces an effect of great charm as a Victorian country house and is an interesting record of the development of New Zealand middle-class domestic taste in decor. Of special note is a large amount of original Victorian/Edwardian furniture, original paintings, domestic china and ornaments, and dolls and dollhouse displays.
The house is located in Wenderholm Regional Park, surrounded by a beautiful garden and magnificent, exotic trees.
