One of Pokolbin’s finest original period residences!
One of the most desirable estates in Pokolbin, the combination of two original homesteads, with charm and ambience to create the dream of what most visitors to the Hunter Valley desire.
Located in a premier Broke Road position, with superb views to both the Northern Ranges and the majestic Brokenback Range, which adjoins the property boundary. A total land area of 109 acres approximately, of both parklike grounds and native Australian bushland, with walking and riding trails, this really is a unique landscape.
A small boutique ‘Shiraz Vineyard’ compliments the view and can provide your own supply for a small label if you wish.
The homestead is used currently, as both a luxurious owners country retreat and as short stay accommodation for guests. There is also a Managers Residence on site which is of a similar period.
The land is zoned RU4 which allows further development of tourist accommodation and wine/hospitality related tourism STCA.
