Overview
Nestled a short walk from the winding Finniss River and the foothills of Mount Finniss, the settlement of Finniss offers a tranquil rural lifestyle where historic charm meets easy access to open water and bushland. Its proximity to the neighbouring locality of Alexandrina and the historic Finniss railway station on the Victor Harbor line provides residents with convenient links to larger centres while retaining a close‑knit community feel.
Originally surveyed as Queen’s Own Town in 1867 during the extension of the rail line from Goolwa to Strathalbyn, the town was renamed Finniss in 1940 to honour early surveyor and first Premier Colonel Boyle Travers Finniss, embedding a sense of heritage in the streetscape. Housing reflects the modest scale of the settlement, providing dwellings that enjoy the peaceful riverine setting and the reliable rail connection for commuters and visitors alike.
