Iconic Farm Cottage – Swanson

Quite possibly one of the most photographed houses in West Auckland; this tiny cottage sits derelict (but proud) in a paddock overlooking a semi-rural roadside. Never lonely and kept company by admirers of it’s rustic beauty and visiting cows that share the land.

  1. Is this Anderson’s Farm Shed noted on Swanson Heritage website as located on Scenic Drive?. Also appearing on the cover of the book “ Rugged Determination – Historical Window on Swanson 1854-2004. This shed is located some distance from West Auckland ‘legend ‘The Haunted House’ or the Sylvan Heights concrete house ruin of which only the chimney remains.
