Mid-Century Amongst the Trees

There is something unmistakable about a home designed in the 1970s. The cathedral ceilings, exposed beams, timber cabinetry and expanses of glass were all about bringing architecture and landscape together. At 9 Roy Road, that original thinking remains beautifully evident.
Set privately amongst established gardens on approximately 3,160sqm, this architect-designed, tri-level home captures the character of its era while offering the space and versatility to work exceptionally well for life today.
The main living areas make an immediate impression. Cathedral ceilings rise above exposed beams, while large picture windows and full-height glazing draw the surrounding greenery into the home. Original timber cabinetry and wood veneer finishes have been retained, giving the interiors an authenticity that is increasingly difficult to find.
Across the split-level floorplan, the living spaces each have their own personality. There is a formal dining room, an open kitchen and meals area with dado panelling, and a wonderfully atmospheric lower lounge centred around the fireplace. Purpose-built stereo cabinetry is a particularly good piece of 1970s nostalgia and practically demands a turntable and a favourite record.
The kitchen has been updated over time with composite benchtops and tiled finishes, while remaining sympathetic to the home’s architectural character. Sliding glass doors strengthen the connection outdoors, and clever under-house access provides storage for firewood close to the lower living room.
Three bedrooms with built-in robes are complemented by a flexible fourth bedroom or study/nursery. The main bedroom includes its own ensuite, while the original main bathroom is another charming time capsule, complete with fabulous feature tiles from the era.
Recent improvements include a replacement Colorbond roof, with fresh internal paint and new carpets further refreshing the home for its next chapter. Ducted heating and the fireplace make winter particularly inviting, especially when Olinda delivers one of its occasional dustings of snow.
Separate from the house, the garage and workshop incorporate a later studio addition designed to sit comfortably alongside the original architecture. Western red cedar and an elevated position amongst the trees give it a distinctly Hills character, creating an excellent space for working from home, art or music, a gym or creative pursuits.
There is generous vehicle accommodation too, with a double garage, double carport and an additional single carport positioned at the top of the property. Secondary access via Ida Grove adds further flexibility.
Outside, the garden is wonderfully established rather than overly manicured. European and native plantings mingle beneath the mature canopy, with pathways winding through mossy lawns, tree ferns, hydrangeas, pale pink rhododendrons and established camellias. The land carries a zoological classification reflecting the significance of wildlife within this environment, with bowerbirds and lyrebirds among the regular visitors. Sunny mornings, abundant birdlife and the privacy of the surrounding trees make the setting feel remarkably removed from everyday life.
