More Than Meets the Eye...

Boasting a family residence as well as a charming cottage, this is a property with a story that reaches back more than a century, and one that has never before been offered to the market.
Originally part of one of the early 10-acre holdings in the district, the property first had a simple bark hut before the original Hills cottage was built in 1908. More than a century later, the cottage remains a wonderful example of an early Australian architecture, original character and classic verandahs front and back.
For many decades, the cottage was the family's main home. Its kitchen and bathroom were added as the house evolved through the 1940s and 1950s, along with the fireplaces and wood stove that speak to another era of hill's life.
When the clinker-brick home was built in the early 1970s, the cottage did not lose its place in family life. Instead, it became an extension of the main home: somewhere to sew, write, read a book in front of the fire, make jam from the garden, or give friends and family their own place to stay. That sense of continuity is part of what makes the property special.
The main house brings a different kind of Hills character. Its generous proportions and oversized windows fill the rooms with light, including through winter. From the kitchen, lounge and deck, the outlook stretches towards Silvan Dam, while the master bedroom offers the rare pleasure of waking to the view each morning.
Outside, the garden carries its own history. A magnificent old oak stands near the cottage, while established rare camellias, rhododendrons and mature autumnal trees create a garden that changes with the seasons. The renewed cottage garden, with climbing roses along the fence line, adds another layer of charm.
The garden has always been a place to use and enjoy, not simply admire. There are orchards, heritage fruits, vegetables and herbs, and Medlar trees that still produce enough fruit for Medlar paste made from a recipe handed down to the current owner.
Wildlife is woven into everyday life. Kookaburras and king parrots visit regularly, resident bowerbirds make their home in the garden, and echidnas and the occasional wombat wander through.
Despite the sense of space and privacy, the property is closely connected to the surrounding Hills community. The original local hall is a short walk away, where U3A, makers markets and Winter Warmers jazz nights bring people together. The old mechanics track runs parallel to Falls Road to the waterfalls where the first owners used to swim. The kinder, primary school's and private school buses are all within easy walking distance. Local shops, pubs and cafes are only a few minutes' drive away.
It is difficult to reduce a property like this to bedrooms, bathrooms and land size. Its appeal lies in the combination: an original Hills cottage with more than a century of history, a light-filled family home with a beautiful outlook, an established garden planted and enjoyed over generations, and a location deeply connected to the local community.
