Winstan House

Winstan House is the official residence and office of the President of Fortuse.

History
After Rutherford Winstan was elected as the first President of Fortuse on the 10th of January 1811, he ordered for an official residence to be built. The plans were completed by August 1811, and were announced soon afterwards.

A large plot of land was acquired seven kilometres south of Hurstville in November 1811, and construction began on the 17th of December, the groundbreaking ceremony attended by the President.

Construction took just under eight years, and the building was completed in November 1819.

The building was opened by the President on the 1st of January 1812, exactly one year after Fortuse became a country. The building was named Capital House.

After the death of Winstan in 1836, the building was renamed Winstan House.
