Last Listing description (February 2026)

Set in the golden mile of Upwey - low, private, and beautifully cradled by nature - this home brings together artisan touches, hilltop light, and a homely warmth that feels instantly grounding. Lovingly renovated throughout, every space carries a sense of care and craftsmanship, from the rustic hardwood flooring to the bespoke redwood island bench that anchors the open-plan kitchen and living zone. Add in the ambient glow of a Nectre wood fire and youve got a home that feels like a retreat all year round - cosy in winter, sunlit in summer, and always welcoming.

The design is thoughtful and family-friendly, with four bedrooms tucked into a private wing, a separate study for working or schooling from home, and updated bathrooms that lean into comfort and calm. Step outside, and the home opens wide to a huge north-easterly entertaining deck promising sky-drenched mornings and hazy sunset evenings. With views stretching across the ranges, its the perfect setting for relaxed dining, quiet contemplation, or entertaining the people you love.

The outdoors continue to delight - a fully fenced backyard with lawn for play, magnolias that bloom with ceremony each season, a mini orchard offering citrus and sweetness, and a firepit zone ready for starry-night storytelling. Under-house storage, a woodshed, chicken coop, and water tanks bring both utility and authenticity - a true Hills lifestyle with thoughtful practicality.
