A rare opportunity to secure an approximately 165 acre Lifestyle property in the highly sought-after Hunter Valley.
Well-established and offering excellent usability, infrastructure and ease of access, this versatile property combines rural privacy with outstanding convenience — all within close reach of Muswellbrook, Newcastle and the renowned Hunter Valley wine region.
Convenience and Location
Positioned just 10 minutes from Muswellbrook’s main street, hospital and train station, and only 8 minutes from one of the town’s major shopping centres, the property offers an ideal balance of seclusion and accessibility.
Enjoy weekends in Pokolbin’s world-renowned vineyards and restaurants, located approximately 45 minutes away, while Newcastle is accessible within 1.5 hours by road or rail.
Multiple daily train services connect Muswellbrook to Newcastle and Sydney, including the NSW TrainLink Explorer service.
Access is directly from the New England Highway via a private (not shared), all-weather 500m gravel driveway leading to the established homesite. The front boundary is set well back from the highway, allowing easy access for vehicles, machinery and stock transport.
Additional practical features include:
– School bus service at the gate
– Reliable internet and television reception
– Regular Monday–Friday mail delivery
Secure water supply
Water security is a standout feature of the property, including:
– Five dams which have remained reliable throughout current ownership
– A well
– Gravity-fed water servicing the house yard
– A 22,500L domestic water tank currently in use
– Two additional level tank sites
– An intermittent creek system with natural waterholes
The Land
The property is well fenced with boundary fencing and five internal paddocks, much of which was renewed in 2022, with some of the fence at the back of the property needing repair.
Multiple internal and boundary gates provide excellent accessibility for stock and property management.
The land consists of native pasture and established natural bushland, supporting abundant native wildlife while maintaining a balance of usable grazing land and recreational space.
Homesite and Infrastructure
A large, fully fenced level homesite includes electricity, approved septic system and water storage.
The existing three-bedroom residence requires extensive renovation, or presents the opportunity to remove and replace with your dream rural home (STCA).
Complementing the homesite is a substantial 18m x 12m x 5m steel and Colorbond shed featuring:
– Concrete floor
– 240V power
– Toilet facilities
– Plumbing provisions for a shower and sink
– Three roller doors (two front, one rear)
