There are places where the land still speaks, where the whisper of the creek and the rustle of peppercorn trees carry stories of family, of hard work, and of seasons rolling endlessly. Whitburn Whispers is one such place: a 93-acre farm cradled in the heart of Greta in the picturesque Hunter Valley, where country values and modern comfort live side by side.
The eight year-old homestead blends timeless elegance with practicality—a family haven with raked ceilings, oak timber floors, generous bedrooms, a roaring fireplace and wide hardwood decks that frame the view. Every detail is grounded in quality and comfort, designed to weather generations.
The farm itself is alive with purpose. Cattle graze across fertile paddocks, horses work in a well-built arena, and sheep move quietly between shaded stands of trees. An established orchard, citrus grove, and sprawling vegetable gardens carry the rhythm of self-sufficiency, while a vast chicken run and rich soils bring abundance to the table. Five dams and the ever-reliable Anvil Creek secure water, while a full solar system with battery storage ensures the property runs almost entirely off-grid—sustainable, independent, and future-proof.
There is space for children to roam, to race motorbikes, to ride horses along the trails, and to grow up with mud on their boots and starlit nights. The rustic cabin, hidden among she-oaks, is the ultimate cubby, teenage retreat or could be a retreat for quiet reflection or creativity while the paddocks and creek-side tracks invite adventure.
And yet, despite its sense of seclusion, Greta itself is just a short walk through the gate. The school, the preschool, the heart of the village—all within minutes by foot. The Hunter Expressway lies close at hand, making Newcastle’s beaches and Sydney’s bustle an easy drive away.
At Whitburn Whispers, privacy and peace reign, yet town and city are never out of reach. This is a farm for families who dream of more than just land—they dream of a way of life. A place where children are raised with dirt under their fingernails, where meals come from the garden, where nights are spent by the fire or under skies alive with stars.
A rare and remarkable holding, Whitburn Whispers is not just a farm. It is a legacy, waiting for its next chapter to be written.
