There are properties that simply offer space... and then there are those rare few that offer a feeling - a sense of quiet, countryside magic that wraps around you the moment you arrive. 951 Maitland Vale Road is one of those very special places.
Set on an incredible 18.6 acres with approximately 180 metres of Hunter River frontage, this enchanting property delivers the kind of rural lifestyle buyers dream of: room for horses, cattle or alpacas, rich soils for sustainable gardens, sunrise and sunset vistas over prime land, great farming infrastructure, and multiple dwellings where extended family, guests, or creative pursuits all have a place to thrive.
Perched on a gentle rise overlooking the softly undulating river flats, the main residence - a charming single-storey brick cottage designed and built in 2001 by the late master builder/architect Russell Skinner - feels warm, welcoming and beautifully considered. The home features three comfortable bedrooms including a light-filled master with walk-in robe and verandah access, along with a spacious open-plan kitchen, dining and living area framed by large bay windows that capture the ever-changing landscape outside. The kitchen offers 40mm stone benchtops, a large pantry, quality stainless steel appliances, gas cooking and a dishwasher, making everyday living both practical and enjoyable. Sunlight spills through generous windows and glass sliding doors, drawing you naturally toward the wide entertainment deck and colourful established gardens beyond. With fresh paint, new carpets, ducted reverse-cycle air-conditioning, ceiling fans, LED lighting and thoughtful modern touches throughout, the home feels fresh, inviting and timeless. A single lock-up garage and single carport attached to the home offers added convenience.
Beyond the house, the property opens up into a true rural wonderland. The original old dairy has been thoughtfully renovated, brimming with charm and character - two studio rooms feature leadlight windows and panelled ceilings, with provincial touches to the kitchenette and bathroom, giving a cosy, romantic ambience. This self-contained studio adds further versatility for guests, teenagers, hobbyists or work-from-home needs. If that's not enough recreational space, there's also a fully self-contained transportable tiny home included.
The infrastructure is extraordinary: a massive 14m x 10m original barn for storing farm machinery, a near-new 10m x 7.5m triple Colorbond garage with power, and two horse stables with feed and tack area. Four separate large paddocks all securely fenced for stock have automatic water troughs, and there's water piped from the river with two pumps for stock and domestic use. Everything has been laid out for practical, comfortable rural living.
And then… there are the gardens.
Approximately one acre of lush, established gardens surround the home with seasonal colour and fragrance: jacarandas that drape in purple, mop tops, bright hedges and agapanthus, citrus orchard, climbing roses cascading along the verandah, a weeping mulberry tree, and a variety of other impressive mature feature trees. It is peaceful, abundant, and deeply beautiful - the perfect place to slow down, breathe, and live well.
A property of this calibre, with true river frontage, multiple dwellings, excellent infrastructure and breathtaking views, is incredibly hard to find. Whether you're dreaming of horses, a hobby farm, a weekender or a peaceful forever home... this is one you will fall in love with.
From the property, you're just 15 minutes to Maitland for schools, shopping and daily essentials, 30 minutes to Singleton, less than an hour to Newcastle and Newcastle Airport, 30 minutes to the Hunter Valley Vineyards, with quick access to the Hunter Expressway for an easier run to Newcastle, Central Coast or Sydney.
Rosebrook is a tightly held pocket known for its serene river valley, open paddocks, rural community spirit and picture-perfect outlooks. Ideally positioned for those wanting rural tranquillity without sacrificing convenience. Opportunities like this are few and far between - don't miss your chance to secure one of Rosebrook's most beautiful rural holdings.
