Bella Vista, Heritage homestead in The Hills Shire, Australia.

Bella Vista is a heritage-listed homestead complex at Elizabeth Macarthur Drive in Bella Vista, The Hills Shire, New South Wales. It includes a two-storey homestead with 1864–65 additions, a family cemetery with a vault built in 1887, a shearing shed converted from a packing shed, and a dairy built east of the old packing shed between 1934 and 1940.

Richard Richardson received 65 hectares here in 1799; the farm passed to the Macarthurs, who bred Merino sheep on the expanded Seven Hills Farm before it returned to the Crown in 1821. James Robertson was granted 200 hectares on which Bella Vista stands, and William Pearce bought the property in 1842. His son Edward added the homestead's second storey in 1864–65 and ran orchards, shipping citrus to Melbourne.

The buildings display architectural styles that developed between 1830 and 1960, from Georgian Colonial to Victorian Italianate designs. You can observe how construction methods and tastes changed over the decades as the property was expanded and modified.

The property is located southwest of Sydney and is open to visitors who want to explore the preserved buildings and original landscape. Plan enough time to walk through all the structures and understand the full extent of the estate.

Edward Pearce made the estate the colony's largest orange producer in the 1890s, showing how quickly the business model and profitability shifted on the property. This focus on citrus growing shaped the landscape and infrastructure for many decades.
