North Terrace's grandest bluestone pile was home to Henry Ayers — seven-time Premier, telegraph champion, colonial dealmaker — for four decades from the 1870s. Architect Kingston, who also laid out Adelaide's street grid for Colonel Light, gave it the ballroom and verandahs still standing today. The National Trust now holds the keys; the rooms remain furnished as Ayers left them.
