Late twentieth-century estate housing covers the slopes above the Croydon plain. Double-storey brick homes with tiled roofs, rendered porticos and double garages face curving courts, many built to take a view towards the Dandenong Ranges. Blocks are larger than inner-suburban lots but fully serviced, with concrete driveways and retaining walls on the fall. Flats barely appear. A second, smaller dwelling is unusual compared with the single family house on each title. Croydon Hills is in the Maroondah area.
Render bands over brick crack at the horizontal joint, and those hairlines telegraph through a new coating unless they are cut out and patched. Exposed upper storeys take strong UV, leaving acrylic thin on west walls. Timber infill panels under balconies swell. Retaining-wall faces and garage door frames collect mould on the downhill side, where the ground stays shaded and damp after rain. Croydon Hills interiors can start with interior painting. exterior painting is priced after we have seen the house. Neighbouring guides: Croydon, Croydon North and Mooroolbark.
