The land was purchased in 1851 by John Lowry Esq. from the AACo. The first known owner was John Skillman.[1]

An Interim Conservation Order was placed on the residence together with the outhouse and schoolhouse adjacent to it and its site on 23 April 1982.[1]

Gundayne is a two-storey residence of symmetrical design, built in approximately 1860 on land purchased from the Australian Agricultural Company. It is prominently located on the southern approach to the township to Booral. The land visually associated with the residence is bounded by the main road to the west, a lane to the south and a creek to the east and north and is approximately four hectares in area.[1]
Constructed of brick, the walls of the house are covered with stucco and lime. The windows throughout are of 12 or 16 panes. The hipped roof of the house is of corrugated iron as is the roof of the front verandah. Of particular interest are the tapered timber columns of the front verandah which are typical of the Stroud district.[1]
Further Stroud features can be seen in the squared patera and tapering pilasters of the ground floor fireplaces. All the joinery in the house is of cedar.[2][1]

A former church structure was on the property, but deteriorated and fell down.[1]
