Courier newspaper proprieter Charles Buzzacott was so impressed with the Courier building designed for him by the talented and ubiquitous Richard Gailey that he commissioned him to design this gracious villa, which still stands today complete with its weatherboard stables and coach house in its stately grounds.

By the mid 1890’s it had been purchased by a Mt Morgan mine shareholder and member of parliament John Ferguson for his daughter and son-in-law, manager of the Union Bank.

Today it is well maintained under the umbrella of an aged care complex.
