Box Hill House, Victorian estate in Box Hill, New South Wales, Australia

The brick residence at Box Hill House features architectural elements from the 1890s, including detailed craftsmanship throughout its interior and exterior design elements.

Samuel Terry, who arrived as a convict in 1801, acquired the 690-hectare estate in 1819 and transformed it into a substantial agricultural property.

The property reflects the evolution of rural Australian estates, transitioning from a private residence to the McCall Garden Community for social support services.

Visitors need to obtain permission and schedule appointments through heritage authorities to access the grounds and interior spaces of Box Hill House.

The estate expanded when John Terry obtained adjacent land from former Governor William Bligh's family, increasing its agricultural production capabilities.
