About Us

Cressfield’s history begins in the early 1900’s being initially established as a 10,000-acre wheat and sheep farm and owned by the Hall family until the late 1990’s. It was then subdivided, and in 2000 the 1917 Cressfield Homestead inclusive of approximately 3,500 adjoining acres was purchased by the current owner. Since then, 1,200 acres of this land has been specifically developed for Thoroughbred breeding, transforming the blank canvas of a sheep farm into the premier boutique broodmare farm that it is today. The 1917 Queen Anne Federation Homestead was also completely restored during this time. Taking four and a half years to complete, it retains all its period features while concealing the conveniences of a modern home.
