What do Macquarie Hills' estate homes need cleaned?
Munibung Hill, on the suburb's edge, is recognised as a place of cultural and resource significance for the Awabakal community. The land was part of a large grant to Joseph Weller in 1833 and was later bought by the Newcastle Wallsend Coal Company.
Developers including Milne Browne & Co. and the Herald Finance Company laid out estates from the late 1960s, with a theme of American street names, and building spread west and south in the 1990s and 2000s. Separate houses were 97.8% of occupied homes in 2021, and half had four or more bedrooms (50.6%).
Concrete and paved driveways and paths are pressure cleaned at a pressure chosen for the surface, and roofs and walls get a soft wash with cleaning solution instead.
