6 Mill Hill

Enter your email address below and we'll send instructions and a link to reset your password Steeped in rich character and history, 'Hillcrest' stands as a distinguished example of Port Macquarie's early architecture. Built in the 1880s, its Federation-era design remains beautifully preserved, with original details and craftsmanship still evident throughout. Set back from the street on a peaceful 1,741sqm block, the home is surrounded by mature gardens that frame its timeless presence. Originally located on Gordon Street, on the site where Growers Market now stands, the house was carefully relocated to Mill Hill in 1980. Built by a Mr Bourne, a local craftsman known for his quality workmanship, it was later purchased in 1925 by Tom Dick and his wife Mary Jane from Alfred E. Pountney, founder and publisher of The Port Macquarie News. Constructed from red mahogany, the enduring quality of this home is unmistakable. Timber-panelled walls, high ceilings of 3.4 metres and, in the main living room, an impressive 4.5 metres, create a striking sense of space. A brick fireplace anchors the living area, adding warmth and character. Ornate cornices, double-hung windows and French doors open onto a wrap around verandah, drawing in natural light and leafy garden outlooks. The kitchen brings together functionality and charm, with a farmhouse-style sink, Omega oven, walk-in pantry and generous bench space. A cedar staircase leads to the upper-level bedroom, complete with gabled dormer windows and an open ensuite. This space once hosted a Silver Wedding Anniversary in 1926, when a jazz band played for approximately 100 guests, in what was once the home's designated ballroom. The main living room makes a striking impression, anchored by a full-sized English snooker table that's almost as old as the home itself. One wall is lined with floor-to-ceiling bookshelves, the other reveals the original timber panelling, untouched and full of character. This is a space made for conversation, connection, and lasting memories. Framed by mature gardens, the in-ground pool feels private and serene, creating a peaceful setting to relax or entertain in complete comfort. Hillcrest is more than a residence. It is a home with stories in its walls, passed carefully from one generation to the next. A rare opportunity to own a quiet and enduring piece of Port Macquarie's heritage.
