Situated on 1.8 hectares in the shadow of New Parliament House, the Lodge is the official residence of the Australian Prime Minister. Built in 1927 specifically for this purpose, the house is furnished in 1920s style, and features work from Australian artists of that period. The immaculate grounds feature a stunning native garden, tennis court, croquet lawn, swimming pool and even a vegetable garden. The Lodge is not usually open to the public, however there are several open days throughout the year.
