Lowlands Homestead is a group of heritage buildings in the locality of Mardella, in the Shire of Serpentine-Jarrahdale, Western Australia.

[3] Serpentine Farm was subsequently sold at auction to John Wellard,[2] who purchased 2,000 hectares (5,000 acres) of land with the homestead for £3,000, equivalent to A$319,282 in 2022.

Wellard had arrived in Western Australia in 1841, aged 15, as an apprenticed seaman, with the ship he was one being wrecked at Woodman Point.

Wellard's daughter Ellen married Alexander Robert Richardson in 1874 and the two initially lived at Pyramid Station, in north-western Western Australia.

[2] In 1876, an indenture between John Wellard, having had to declare bankruptcy, his son Pierce and his son-in-law Richardson saw the latter two jointly purchase Serpentine Farm.

It was built by convict labour from local materials and is associated with early European settlers Thomas Peel and John Wellard.
