THE SEARCH
For families ready to secure their place on the Harcourt Hill.
A home that doesn't feel like the others you've seen. Somewhere with presence. Warmth. History you can feel, without the upkeep that owns your weekends. A premium position, close to the schools you hoped for, and the local amenities you wished you lived closer to are just a stroll away. A home that supports the way you live now and holds your dream for what could be next.
THE STORY
One of the first homes built on this hill, circa 1860s, when it overlooked open farmland and the suburb had yet to arrive. You walk in and it feels different. It feels like home.
Ceilings that lift the room. Bedrooms with real proportion - the private main retreat set apart from a separate wing for the kids, allowing space to come together and space to step away. Floorboards that have carried a century of footsteps and still feel solid beneath yours.
French doors open to layered gardens, originally designed by renowned landscape architecture firm, Eckersley Garden Architecture (EGA), and updated by owner and Landscape Designer, Julie Crowe. Every window draws in green - each outlook considered, each aspect calming. The landscape softens the edges of the day before it has even begun.
THE LIFE
School mornings without panic. Teens moving easily in and out. Coffee and village life around the corner. Parks and green space nearby. Glenferrie, Camberwell, and transport options close by. City access when you need it. Sanctuary when you don't. The kind of position people wait for but seldom secure. The Farmhouse remains a legacy home, and the next part of the story continues with you.
