Fairymead House

Fairymead House is a historic homestead located in Bundaberg North, Queensland, Australia, built in 1890 for Ernest and Margaret Young. This heritage-listed site reflects the grandeur of late 19th-century plantation life and is closely tied to the Fairymead Sugar Plantation, one of the earliest and most significant sugar operations in the region. The Young family played a pivotal role in the development of the local sugar industry, introducing innovative harvesting techniques and machinery that are still in use today. Visitors can explore the rich history of sugar cultivation in Queensland and appreciate the architectural beauty of this historic residence.
