40 Hill Street, Blayney, NSW 2799

Welcome to one of the region's most unique and treasured homes - a beautifully restored two-storey double brick residence built in 1880, proudly standing on a generous 1,201m² block. Once the old convent and steeped in local history, this remarkable property was even visited by Saint Mary MacKillop herself. Blending period charm with tasteful modern renovations, this is a home of grand proportions, stunning architectural detail, and warm character.

Inside, you'll find five large bedrooms, a separate home office with a cosy sitting area, offering plenty of space for families of all sizes. With two generous living rooms (one on each level), three bathrooms, and an abundance of original features - including soaring ceilings, ornate cornices, polished floorboards, and pressed tin walls - the home captures the elegance of its past while embracing the needs of modern living.

Step out onto either of the two balconies and soak up the breathtaking views to the south, where peaceful sunsets, birdsong, and local wildlife create an idyllic country atmosphere. Despite its sense of seclusion, the home is ideally positioned just a short walk from shops, cafes, a leisure centre, and one of the area's most respected primary schools.
Whether you're searching for a forever family home, a unique piece of Australian heritage, or simply room to breathe without losing access to convenience, this special property delivers on all fronts.
