Hunters Hill is sometimes called 'the garden suburb' for its 1850s-1880s Italianate stone houses commissioned by French Catholic settlers — many are individually State Heritage Register listed, requiring Section 60 (Heritage Act 1977) approval from Heritage NSW on top of council DA.
Hunters Hill Council operates the smallest local-government area in NSW (5.7km²) but maintains one of the strictest heritage-assessment regimes — DA assessments routinely require a Heritage Impact Statement on internal-only alterations to pre-1940 stock.
Many Hunters Hill houses are built from locally-quarried Hunters Hill sandstone with lime-mortar bedding — repair specifications must use lime mortar matched to the original; cement repointing is treated as inappropriate at heritage assessment.

Who is Baily?
Baily is named after Francis Baily — an English stockbroker who retired at 51, became an astronomer, and in 1836 described something on the edge of a solar eclipse that nobody had properly articulated before: a string of bright beads of sunlight breaking through the valleys along the moon’s rim.
He wasn’t the first to see them. Edmond Halley saw them in 1715 and barely noticed. Baily’s contribution was clarity — describing exactly what was happening, in plain language, so vividly that the whole field of astronomy paid attention. The phenomenon is still called Baily’s beads.
That’s what we wanted our AI to do. Every inbound call and text has signal in it — a homeowner’s real question, a timeline, a budget, a hesitation that means “yes but.” Baily listens to every one, 24/7, and finds the beads of light.
Baily was a businessman before he was a scientist. That’s our vibe too.
