Some properties feel like they've been part of the landscape forever, and "Sandalwood Cottage" is one of them. Set on 5.5 acres of parkland cleared sandy loam soil, this gorgeous weatherboard home has watched generations live the hills dream: wide open space, quiet mornings, horses grazing, and a sense of calm that only comes from land that breathes. It's a place where lifestyle isn't an idea - it's a daily rhythm. A place that feels tucked away yet deeply connected to the Hills community. A place that invites you to slow down, settle in, and let the land work its magic.
The cottage itself is beautifully renovated and tastefully decorated, honouring its heritage while embracing comfort. Leadlight and stained glass windows, polished jarrah floorboards, and a cosy slow combustion wood fire give the home its soul, while ducted reverse cycle air conditioning adds modern ease. There are three bedrooms, a brand new bathroom, a lovely lounge and dining room, and a revamped kitchen that blends charm with practicality. The wide L shaped timber decked veranda wraps the home in warmth, offering the perfect place to sit with a coffee, watch the horses wander, and let the day unfold slowly.
