Step back in time with the Blockhouse Bay Historical Society and discover the story of Armanasco House.

This beautifully restored Kauri farmhouse is not just a building; it’s a living piece of Blockhouse Bay’s past. Built in 1890 by Italian immigrant Stefano (Alfred) Armanasco and his wife Maria, it served as the family’s farm homestead for decades.
