If you're house hunting in the Hills it's probably because you're looking to upgrade your lifestyle. If you need more than just a suburban house; four walls and a roof and a spot to drop your shoes at the door, this is the antidote to all that! Set on a lovely block of over 1,900sqm (that's nearly half an acre) this family abode is proof you don't have to choose between convenience and soul. The kids can actually walk to school - both Primary and High School are within strolling distance - and still you have the Superblock across the road with its Winter creek and walk trails. All up, you get a village vibe, bushland setting, and the kind of community where people still stop and chat outside the post office. Maybe grab a coffee together too.
The home itself is a 1976 brick and tile gem that's enjoyed the kind of upgrades that make it perfect for modern family life while still keeping some of the more elegant character features. From timber floors underfoot to an L-shaped lounge and dining room big enough to host homework sessions and wine nights with friends, there are plenty of lovely additions to this light-filled space. Brand new carpet, a slow combustion fire for when Winter rolls around again, and a timber-framed bay window that lets all that pretty, dappled Hills light flood to the corners. The modernised kitchen is command central, overlooking the casual dining and family area with sliding doors that encourage folk to spill out onto the patio now the weather's warming up. The main bedroom is a sweet retreat with double built-ins and a lovely outlook while three more bedrooms (or keep one as a study) means everyone gets their own corner. In fact, every inch of this layout means life runs smoothly without skimping on charm.

It's the dream zone for caravans, boats, or large vehicles or, with council permission, the perfect site for a granny flat, mega workshop, or studio you've always wanted to build. From there, the rest of the block doubles down on practicality: two carports plus a solid 40sqm brick shed for tools, toys, or DIYers. The backyard mixed brick paved open areas with garden beds are ready for green thumbs; a pretty outlook from the patio which will fast become your year-round entertaining hub. Talk about Family Heaven, a lifestyle move, and a future-proof foothold in one of the Hills' most friendly communities.
