What's around 35 Hill Road

Federation-Style Home with Limestone Character

Situated on a 7.6 acres block within stage one of the highly sought after Royalla estate this impressive federation-style home offers six bedrooms and has been constructed from genuine hand-bolstered Mount Gambier limestone. Sourced from a fossilized seabed quarry in South Australia, the stone contains visible traces of seashells, fish bones, sea urchins and other ancient marine life, giving the home a distinctive natural character. The limestone was chosen not only for its beauty, but also for its insulating qualities. It is featured across the exterior, the curved front retaining walls that frame the landscaped entry area, and inside the home, where it forms a beautifully crafted fireplace surround. Its unique fossilised texture is a standout feature that is best appreciated in person. Outdoor Living and Grounds A large bullnose verandah spans the front of the home. A 130 m² covered pitched-roof entertainment area provides generous outdoor living space at the rear. Spacious front and rear yards surround the house, creating an open and welcoming setting. Windows, Entry and Interior Finishes The home includes double-glazed windows imported from the USA, with colonial bars sealed between the panes for easy cleaning. The double-hung windows can also be removed at the push of a button, allowing full openings that make it easier to move large furniture, mattresses and bedheads directly in or out of rooms. Imported Italian vitrified floor tiles are used throughout key areas, including a striking laser-cut circular feature in the entry foyer that creates a memorable first impression. Construction, Insulation and Energy Efficiency The wall frames and roof trusses were supplied locally by Universal Frames and Trusses. External frames are wrapped in Tyvek, and both external and internal walls are heavily insulated. The ceiling includes R5 ceiling batts, which represented the highest rating available when the home was built approximately 26 years ago. An anticon insulation blanket beneath the Colorbond roof further supports the home's thermal performance, helping it remain cooler in summer and warmer in winter. Kitchen and Living Areas The timber kitchen is crafted from Papua New Guinea rosewood and features 60 mm granite benchtops with brass detailing. It includes Blanco appliances, an integrated dishwasher, a large built-in corner pantry, extra-deep cupboards along the fridge wall to suit a double-door fridge, and island bench drawers for practical storage. The sink area is set within a beautiful bay window. Ceilings throughout the home are 2.7 metres high. The extra-large triple garage has 3-metre ceilings. The family room includes a handcrafted limestone fireplace surround with an insert slow-combustion wood fire. Two reverse-cycle split systems are positioned at either end of the house. Bedrooms, Bathrooms and Recent Updates The lounge room features a beautiful cathedral ceiling, complemented by a double-glazed feature window. All bedrooms include extra-deep, floor-to-ceiling built-in wardrobes with double sliding mirror doors. The oversized master bedroom includes a large walk-in robe and a spacious ensuite with a jetted corner spa. The home is supported by three-phase power distributed across its electrical systems, with LED lighting throughout. The main living area, kitchen, laundry, powder room and formal entry have also been professionally repainted, giving this solid 25-year-old home a bright and refreshed feel. Commercial Workshop The property includes a substantial 360 m² commercial workshop measuring 15 metres wide by 24 metres long. It has 4.2-metre wall heights and rises to 7.1 metres at the peak, creating a large unobstructed internal workspace. This is a serious commercial-grade structure, not a domestic shed, with massive trusses, metal construction, three-phase power and a 150 mm concrete floor with double mesh. A 6 m x 6 m upstairs office in one rear corner. A full bathroom below the office, with a laundry wash tub nearby. A 6 m x 6 m mezzanine floor in the opposite rear corner. More than 400 m² of total usable floor area. A standard PA entry door, two 2.4 m x 2.4 m roller doors, and a large 5.4 m x 6 m centre roller door. Anticon insulation beneath the Colorbond roof. The workshop has operated for many years as an automotive repair and metal fabrication facility. Water Supply and Land Features The block includes a large 1.1-megalitre dam, originally constructed in 1964 as part of the wider rural property before subdivision. Water infrastructure is a major strength of the property, with two 45,000-litre Bushman water tanks behind the workshop, a 4,000-litre storage tank behind the house, and a reliable potable bore. The bore is 63 metres deep, draws water from 57 metres, and delivers approximately 200 litres per minute, or 3,000 gallons per hour. The water is regularly tested and has been used during dry periods. It commonly supports the programmable in-ground sprinkler system across the front and rear house yards during summer. Landscape Potential and Natural Surroundings The grounds offer excellent scope for future landscaping, giving the next owner the opportunity to shape the outdoor areas to suit their lifestyle. The property also backs onto a NSW Government travelling stock reserve that has not been used for its original purpose in decades, providing immediate access to untouched natural bushland, native wildlife and informal bushwalking just beyond the fence. The owner is a motivated seller due to health circumstances. The property is for sale by negotiation so all genuine offers will be considered.
