Set high in one of Rye's most peaceful pockets, 7 Hillview Avenue is a home where craftsmanship and considered design come together with effortless grace. Every element reflects a commitment to quality living - from the soaring raked ceilings and sun-filled living zones to the meticulous attention paid to comfort, sustainability and style.
Framed by elevated views and a sun-drenched north-east rear deck, this is a residence that feels both inspiring and deeply liveable - a home where all the work has been done, so you can simply move in and begin your next chapter in complete comfort.
The main living area is defined by its impressive, raked ceilings reaching 12 feet high, creating a sense of openness and architectural interest. Exposed beams and a Regency wood-burning fire with built-in fan add warmth and character, while soft natural light filters through every corner of this inviting space. With Braemar ducted heating, Brivus evaporative cooling, and ceiling fans in every room, comfort here is effortless all year round.
The kitchen forms the heart of the home - a beautifully appointed and highly functional space designed for those who love to cook and entertain. Featuring Miele double wall and convection ovens, Miele dishwasher, gas cooktop, Bosch rangehood, stone benchtops and a sleek glass splashback, every element balances form and function. From the sink, the windows open to tranquil views of the backyard and the leafy vistas beyond, bringing a sense of calm and connection to the outdoors.
The main living zones are finished with durable bamboo flooring, while the bedrooms are grounded by the warmth of solid hardwood. The primary suite offers a peaceful retreat with double robes, a stylish ensuite featuring frameless shower screens, and a wall-mounted Samsung TV. The fourth bedroom doubles perfectly as a home office or study - ideal for flexible modern living.
Throughout the home, thoughtful inclusions enhance both comfort and efficiency. Windows are UV-tinted for privacy and climate control, and automated exterior blinds with individual wall-mounted controls allow you to manage sunlight with ease. A Lume solar skylight alternative brings natural brightness indoors, while double insulation in the ceilings and walls ensures energy efficiency. Security is assured with a comprehensive CCTV system comprising nine cameras.
Outside, the lifestyle offering continues with a large covered north-east deck capturing uninterrupted views, offering the perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee, relaxed entertaining or sunset dining. Included in the sale are the outdoor table and chairs, and a two-person swing to enjoy the outlook. The beautifully maintained grounds feature four raised veggie beds, a garden shed, large undercover caravan accommodation, and a four-car garage with separate workshop/cellar and storage space for garden tools and a ride-on mower - every practical detail has been considered.
This is truly a home where nothing needs to be done. Every finish, fixture and feature has been thoughtfully executed for enduring comfort and quality.
Perfectly positioned within easy reach of Peninsula Hot Springs, Alba Thermal Springs & Spa, and world-class golf courses including Moonah Links, The Dunes and St Andrews Beach, this address delivers the ultimate in lifestyle appeal.
