Imagine a place that feels like heaven on earth; a rare and beautiful pause in time, a secluded sanctuary where family gathers, friendships flourish and memories are woven into the landscape itself. Fernbank Farm is proudly presented by McGrath, in association with Knight Frank and Bayleys, and offered for sale for the first time in almost forty years. Established in 1904, Fernbank stands as one of the Central Coast's most elegant and authentically restored country estates. Rich in provenance, it invites its next custodian to inherit and shape a legacy more than a century in the making. Framed by award-winning gardens, sweeping lawns, a shimmering sandstone-edged lake and the magnificent 27 metre Wisteria Arbour, Fernbank is a place of extraordinary beauty, privacy and grace. Equally suited as a private rural estate, a multi-generational family haven, or an exclusive high-end retreat offering boutique accommodation, wellness escapes or corporate experiences, it presents a lifestyle of rare distinction with meaningful commercial flexibility. Across its long and storied history, Fernbank has evolved with elegance and purpose, from its ties to the Santosa Clydesdale Stud to its role as a setting for celebrations, hospitality and quiet restoration. Its 25 acres of gently undulating land, two substantial residences, extensive event approvals, impressive infrastructure, exceptional water security and masterfully curated grounds combine to create one of the region's truly iconic holdings. Simply heaven on earth, Fernbank is a timeless estate of beauty, soul and enduring possibility.

This is a well-preserved period timber homestead set within an extensively landscaped rural estate — the decorative verandah, bay window and timber detailing read as authentic heritage rather than a new reproduction. While not an avant‑garde architect statement, the property stands out for its strong period character, high-quality garden design and evident craftsmanship across exterior joinery and garden structures.
