Cummins House, Adelaide

On 13 January 1840, he was granted title to the land which he named "Cummins Estate" after his mother's Devonshire farm.

[2][5] The fourth generation owner, Hurtle Morphett, offered this residence and land for sale but a satisfactory purchaser was not forthcoming.

[6] In 1982, Immanuel College leased Cummins from the State Government, with the aim of restoring the property for use as a pioneer museum, and as an exhibition and performance centre.

[8] In 1919, the first sub-division occurred when land south of the Holdfast Bay railway line was sold for a new subdivision for returned servicemen's homes.

Hence, Cummins House is located at 23 Sheoak Avenue, Novar Gardens, South Australia.
