Poised high on The Jim Jim in one of the most privileged positions in the Macedon Ranges, Hill House captures sweeping panoramic views across Hanging Rock, Mount Macedon and the Cobaw Ranges, a landscape that shifts with the light and grounds the home in absolute serenity.

Privately set at the end of a winding asphalt driveway, the residence offers more than 50 squares of considered living, designed to frame its breathtaking outlooks. A beautifully inviting entrance foyer leads to an enchanting formal lounge with big views to the Cobaw Ranges and a cosy space with built in Cheminees Phillipe fireplace, from there a vestibule hallway, lined with glass and opening to a peaceful internal courtyard is the calm at the centre of the home.

At the rear, the informal living and dining space is truly where the home comes to life. With large windows and a central stone wall and fireplace, the room invites in the northern light and captures some of the most awe-inspiring views in the district. French doors spill out to a spectacular terraced entertaining area.

The kitchen is well-appointed and thoughtfully designed, featuring custom stainless steel benchtops, quality appliances including Neff ovens and a Miele dishwasher, and a picturesque outlook that frames the surrounding Hanging Rock landscape. There is a walk in pantry and cellar/wine store.

Flowing from the main living area, the adjoining billiard room features moody tones and a striking timber-lined ceiling, creating a sophisticated retreat for relaxation or entertaining. A separate study/library with sweeping views towards Hanging Rock offers an inspiring setting for working from home or additional living.

The main suite feels like a private retreat, featuring a walk-through robe, luxurious ensuite and direct access to the deck for a front-row seat to the easterly views and sunrise. Three additional bedrooms with built-in robes provide generous accommodation, including a guest suite with its own ensuite. A central family bathroom services the bedroom wing, while a large laundry, additional bathroom, mudroom and storeroom are functionally positioned at the opposite end of the home, connecting directly to the double carport. 

Throughout the home, polished concrete and timber floors are paired with soaring vaulted ceilings, bespoke timber finishes, and full double glazing, creating a refined yet welcoming interior. Two slow-combustion fireplaces include the Cheminees Philippe in the formal lounge and a wood fire in the main living area, offering both ambience and warmth. Hydronic heating provides consistent comfort throughout the seasons.

The established grounds are enchanting, designed with intention and care. From the parterre and labyrinth gardens to the orchard, raised wicking beds and woodland areas, every corner of the property invites exploration and appreciation. Expansive paved terraces offer the perfect vantage point to soak in the beauty of the surroundings.

Additional highlights include excellent shedding, a 17kW solar system, and ample water storage via tanks, bore and dam.

Just a short drive from Woodend village and V/Line services, Hill House is an opportunity to secure a home of rare scale, setting and soul in the heart of the Macedon Ranges.
