Overlooking vine-clad hills in the heart of Hunter Valley Wine Country, this spectacular country estate offers a huge sprawling country residence, panoramic views, an in-ground pool and spa, second architecturally designed accommodation, private fruit orchard, boutique vineyard, grazing land and abundant water set among inspired gardens. It is less than two hours to Sydney, one hour to Newcastle and walking distance to nearby cellar doors and food offerings.
As you arrive, grand entrance gates and concrete driveway lined with established pear trees lead you past a brand-new three bedroom accommodation building to the main residence. Stepping inside, soaring ceilings, stunning marble flooring, breathtaking views in all directions and beautiful natural light make an immediate impression. A huge open living space flanked on both sides by wide covered outdoor areas features a wood-burning fireplace, large open kitchen with servery to outside and deep walk-in pantry. Plate glass windows and numerous Velux skylights make the living space feel like a cloud floating above the surrounding vineyards and hills with views extending to all of the Brokenback Range, Watagan Range and Barrington Range.
At the front of the home, a grand master suite with walk-in robes and substantial ensuite also has a private courtyard. Adjoining the main bedroom is a steam room, additional powder room and home office which could double as a fifth bedroom if required. In a separate wing, another three large bedrooms with access to the covered verandas as well as two full bathrooms and laundry and linen storage provide ample space for family and guests. A home theatre and temperature controlled wine cellar are just a few additional features of the home.
Outside, covered entertaining areas with ceiling fans, pizza oven and built in BBQ offer views in all directions and brand-new in-ground pool and spa offer breathtaking views over the surrounding vine-clad hills.
A second accommodation offering on the property is a brutalist bunker-style modern building cut into the side of the hillside to make it disappear from the main residence. Offering three bedrooms, bathroom, full kitchen and underground wine cellar, it is perfect for guests, extended family or an income.
Originally part of the old Pokolbin dairy in the early 1900s, the property features the original restored timber shed still in existence.
A significant solar power system, garage, machinery shedding, a sunken firepit, horse stables, boutique vineyard and cattle yards round out one of the most impressive listings we expect to see come to market in the Hunter Valley in 2025.
Inspection by private appointment.
