About this property
Arrive through a gated entrance to a grand country estate where heritage charm meets refined sophistication. Beautifully curated for comfort and style, it features multiple living and dining areas, a statement fireplace, heating and cooling throughout, and a private pool set among blooming roses. Designed for unforgettable moments with sweeping vineyard views, this retreat is just 10 minutes from Cessnock and within easy reach of the Hunter Valley’s acclaimed wineries and cellar doors.
Set behind ornate iron gates and a sweeping driveway lined with gums, this spacious, single-level retreat welcomes you with manicured gardens, vine-draped pergolas, and stunning views stretching over rolling vineyards and beyond.
The open-plan main living area features an L-shaped sofa inviting you to unwind with your favourite shows. Share stories and meals in the main dining space, where all guests can gather around a timber table beside a welcoming brick fireplace. The adjoining country-style kitchen is equipped with an oven, dishwasher, and espresso machine, making home cooking a breeze. Sliding doors extend to an undercover patio and sparkling pool, surrounded by blooming roses and lush greenery—ideal for cooling off after a day of wine tasting or simply soaking up the sunshine.
Move into the second lounge and dining area—stylish yet relaxed, with leather Chesterfields, a piano, and a foosball table that set the scene for laid-back evenings and friendly competition. A second dining table offers a casual setting for games or shared bites. This living zone opens onto a secondary patio with alfresco seating and vineyard views—perfect for slow mornings or golden hour drinks.
For quieter moments, retreat to the third living room—more formal in feel, with a bay window overlooking the valley and a dual-sided fireplace shared with the kitchen and main dining area. A final dining space offers a refined atmosphere for intimate dinners and special occasions.
All bedrooms are tucked away in the left wing of the home, offering a peaceful escape. Recharge in the primary suite, complete with a queen bed, ensuite, and direct patio access. Additional bedrooms are thoughtfully arranged, one set with a queen bed and the others offering bunks. Bathrooms are stocked with essential toiletries, and a full laundry with a washer and dryer adds extra convenience for longer stays.
Stay comfortable year-round with ducted air conditioning in the bedrooms and main lounge, and a split system in the second living and dining area. A high chair and travel cot are available on request, and there’s ample parking on the driveway for up to six vehicles.
During your stay, you and your group will have the entire house to yourselves. Please make yourselves at home!
