Friedenfels Home

The house would appear to have originally been utilised as a holiday let with various families being noted as coming and going from the address during the early 1870s. Subsequently being placed up for auction in March of 1875 with the lease being held by Mr. C. G. Eversfield. The property attracted no bids. In 1884, a further sale of the furniture was advertised. By September of the same year, the ​building​ became known as 'Friedenfels the Home', although it is uncertain that this was connected with the later usage as a hospital some three years later.

It is however known that by 1887, Friedenfels Home became a hospital for consumption (tuberculosis) at 22 Upper Maze Hill operating as such in the late 19th century
