The estate also comprises of a modern house, two dams, shearing shed and yards, shearers' quarters, nursery and hay shed. Rose Cottage was originally a part of Tuggeranong Station. Richard Harris (1830-1904) built the two, now heritage listed cottages of pisé. The property then known as Sweet Hills Estate, stretched for 2000 acres, but now the remaining property is less than 10 acres.
