Nestled on a private no through road in the heart of Wine Country, this property is the perfect sanctuary to escape the outside world, with 25 acres of selectively cleared grounds to retain total privacy, a delightful 4-bedroom country home with wrap around verandahs and an architecturally designed 2-bedroom country cottage, currently operating as short-term tourist accommodation.
This property provides a natural haven for animal and bird life and also has 2 large fenced paddocks and a shelter for horses, if your heart so desires. It is within walking distance of Lovedale Road and the Crowne Plaza Resort and just a short drive to St Philip’s Christian College, Nulkaba Primary School, the Hunter Expressway and the cellar doors, restaurants, spas, golf courses and concert venues of the Pokolbin and Lovedale wine/tourist regions.
A fantastic place to live or visit on weekends, with the Werakata National Park just 1 kilometre down the road providing miles of trails for bush walking, horse riding or mountain biking. This property is also less than a 10 minute drive from Cessnock’s CBD and under 30 minutes from Maitland for all your shopping needs.
The country home has a slow combustion fire, split system air-conditioner, ceiling fans throughout, timber country kitchen with stainless steel appliances, two bathrooms, cedar windows and doors, an underground wine cellar and 2 colorbond garages to accommodate the owners in comfort and privacy.
The successful long running tourist cottage, known as Wattle-Wilde Country Hideaway, is nestled amongst the bush and is self-contained, open plan with vaulted ceilings in the living/dining and kitchen, inviting the light and sun in. Extremely cosy, it features underfloor ducted air-conditioning, ceiling fans, slow combustion fire, spa, verandah and carport.
Should you choose to make this property your weekender, there is the possibility of short-term holiday letting the house, with or independently of, the existing 2-bedroom cottage as they are totally private from each other.
With a perpetual approval for a second cottage already in place and zoning which allows (subject to approval) a second dwelling, further accommodation, home occupations, restaurants or cafes, self-storage units to name but a few - this property is perfect as it is or has scope for improvement.
