Set in the middle of a vineyard in the beating heart of Hunter Valley Wine Country, this beautiful country home offers views of the ever-changing seasons from every room. It is part of Kelman Vineyard, a grown-ups paradise with its own cellar door and a real sense of belonging. It is just two hours from Sydney, one hour from Newcastle and walking distance to other cellar doors and close to schools, the hospital (which is undergoing a state-of-the-art renovation) and only eight minutes to the shopping centres in the middle of town.
Almost an acre in size (3820m2), there is no better position in the estate than this one with North-Facing elevated views over mature Shiraz vines. The quiet relaxed atmosphere that this property enjoys is evident from the approach as you drive up through the vineyard to arrive at the sprawling home with huge, covered verandahs and established landscaping. The first impression is an inviting grand staircase leading to an exquisite wrap around deck bound by eye-catching decorative wrought iron balustrade. North-Facing with a lovely blend of both covered and open pergolas on 3 of 4 sides, you can envisage friends and family relishing in great food and your very own Kelman wine whilst taking in the breathtaking views.
Fulfilling every expectation of the characteristics of a country home the interior oozes warmth, and features wide solid timber floorboards, doors to the decks, a cosy combustion fire in the sitting room and amazing soaring raked ceilings in the spacious open kitchen/dining/living space. With a Northerly aspect, plenty of windows and skylights in the main living space, the home bathes in wonderful natural light all year round. Underfloor ducted air conditioning and utilities such as mains electricity, town water, sewer, NBN and natural gas that you are accustomed, ensure that there is no sacrifice required for that idyllic country lifestyle.
The large master suite is located on the North-East corner of the home, has direct access to a North-Facing deck and of course is complete with a generous ensuite.
Double carport car accommodation and lock-up storage is strategically located on the southern side of the home, a swim spa is well placed, nestled in privacy and nearby to the amenity of the main bathroom.
Achieving the best of both worlds you are surrounded by wineries, concert venues, golf courses and restaurants, starting from just outside the front gate, however the convenience of supermarkets, specialty stores, bakers and butchers are only eight minutes away.
A desirable property that you can immerse yourself in, a wonderful escape from the outside world, but equally a property that is too enviable to hide away and is sure to be an absolute joy to entertain and share with family and friends.
Inspection is by private appointment.
