Where we buildThe Hills District

Custom home builder in The Hills district.

Annangrove, Bella Vista, North Kellyville and the acreage belt north-west of Sydney. Home ground — most of the work since 2011 sits here or in Ryde.

The area

Two kinds of block, and they build nothing alike.

The Hills covers both the established acreage north and west of Kellyville and the newer estates that filled in around Bella Vista and North Kellyville. A house that suits one is usually the wrong answer on the other.

Acreage and rural-residential
Annangrove, Kenthurst, Glenorie and the blocks around them. Space is not the constraint here; the approach to the house, where the outdoor rooms sit and how far the services have to run are.
Estate lots
Bella Vista, North Kellyville and the newer releases. Tighter setbacks, close neighbours, and in many cases a set of design guidelines or a covenant that governs materials, roof form and fencing.
Sewer, or no sewer
Plenty of acreage in the north-west is unsewered. Where it is, an on-site wastewater system has to be designed and approved alongside the house, and it affects where the house can sit.
Bushfire-prone land
Much of the bush-fringe land here is mapped bushfire prone. That triggers a BAL assessment and construction requirements that change the specification — worth knowing before the design is finished, not after.
Trees
Established trees on a large block are usually the reason it is worth buying, and they are also a planning matter. Root zones and canopy affect where a slab can go.
Access
A long driveway is a cost, a service run and a construction-traffic problem before it is a feature. It gets set out early rather than at the end.

Nearby

The Hawkesbury starts where the estates stop.

North and west of Annangrove the blocks get larger, the sewer runs out and the flood and bushfire mapping starts to govern more of the design. Two of the completed houses on this site — Aristida at Cattai and Cleary at Pitt Town — are on that side of the line.

If your block is somewhere between the two, the answer to what it can carry is the same either way: send the address.

Common questions

About building in The Hills.

The Hills district

Do you build on acreage?

Yes. Annangrove House is on two hectares and Aristida at Cattai is on 7,290 m². Acreage changes the job more than people expect — service runs, driveway construction, wastewater and machine access all become real line items rather than details.

My estate has design guidelines. Is that a problem?

No, but it needs to be in front of the designer at the start rather than at approval stage. Guidelines usually govern materials, roof pitch, garage width and fencing, and they are much easier to design to than to design around.

What if the block is bushfire prone?

It is common on the bush fringe here. A BAL assessment sets a construction level, and that level changes windows, decking, screening and eaves — so it belongs in the specification while the house is being drawn, not after it is priced.
