Statement of Significance
The Badgingarra Homestead has considerable historic significance as one of the first properties to be taken up in that area. Further the place illustrates the effective use of local materials and is somewhat unusual for the use of mud bricks.
Physical Description
The Badgingarra Homestead is a rectangular building of mud brick construction with a hipped corrugated iron roof. The roof extends to cover surrounding verandahs which are supported on thin metal posts and partly enclosed to the west and east with fibro sheeting to provide for additional living space. The building has four entry doors to the south elevation and timber framed double hung windows to the north elevation. A separate small stone building is located to the rear (north), which was the kitchen. It features a chimney to the east elevation. A partly filled in well is located immediately to the south of the Homestead.
History
The land was taken up by William MacNamara in 1895.
