Canning Lodge is a restored circa 1852 brick residence showcasing classic Georgian architectural proportion, defined by symmetry, balance and restrained detailing.

The property is historically linked to early Warwick figures including Dr Charles Miles and Reverend Benjamin Glennie, reflecting the district’s formative residential history and the early development of the township.

The home is constructed from handmade, wood-fired colonial bricks produced locally by the Schnitzerling family, early German emigrant brickmakers in Warwick. Additional bricks supplied across six generations of the same family were integrated during restoration works, reflecting the natural evolution of traditional brickmaking and continuity of original materials.

The residence features three-brick-thick Old English bond walls, providing strong structural mass, excellent thermal stability and natural acoustic separation. The house sits on a substantial sandstone base, forming a stable and enduring foundation.
