Overview

Hillendale - An Idyllic Blend of History, Elegance and Tranquil, Private Gardens

Commanding a prized corner position on iconic Wombat Hill, with dual street frontages and an enviable setting opposite the renowned Convent Gallery, Hillendale is a landmark residence rich in history, presence, and prestige. Constructed in 1861, this solid brick and timber home occupies one of Daylesford’s most tightly held positions, screened by mature hedging and framed by manicured lawns and majestic ninety-year-old trees. Now cherished as a family home, the property previously incorporated a long-standing guest wing, highlighting its impressive scale, thoughtful design, and enduring versatility. For over 20 years, Hillendale operated a highly regarded and profitable guest wing — a testament to the home’s gracious proportions, comfort, and ability to accommodate both private retreat and shared living with ease. A wide central hallway creates an immediate impression of timeless elegance, linking a series of beautifully proportioned rooms throughout the home. In total, the residence comprises nine substantial rooms, many enjoying a sunny north-easterly aspect and abundant natural light. Wide verandahs wrap the home, enhancing the connection to the tranquil garden surrounds and offering peaceful outlooks from multiple rooms. The home retains many original hallmarks of its era, complemented by contemporary comforts for year-round living. Features include central gas hydronic heating, two split-system heating and cooling units, four working fireplaces, formal and informal living zones, a spa bathroom, separate laundry and undercover parking for two vehicles. Adding further depth to its story, the property served as a private hospital named Passchendaele following World War I, providing care for returning soldiers — a poignant chapter in the home’s remarkable history. Beyond the home itself, the gardens are a treasured asset. Established over many decades, they form a private sanctuary of towering trees, layered plantings, and expansive lawns, offering a sense of peace and seclusion. Shaded pockets invite quiet reflection, outdoor dining or gentle wandering, while the generous grounds allow the home to sit gracefully within its landscape. Beautiful and private year-round, the gardens reinforce Hillendale’s status as a tranquil retreat in the heart of town. Occupying a premier position within walking distance of Daylesford’s township and cultural heart, Hillendale presents a rare opportunity to secure a distinguished period home of scale, substance, and flexibility in one of the region’s most revered locations. ** We have obtained all information in this document from sources we believe to be reliable, however, we cannot guarantee its accuracy.
