Relax and enjoy the best of both worlds in this beautiful custom-built home set on 4.8 fertile acres just seven minutes’ drive from the stunning beaches of Port Stephens.
Constructed in 2006 by a local master builder this unique home has been designed with modern country living in mind. Featuring a perfect north-easterly orientation, wide verandahs and high ceilings, this home is a harmonious marriage of beach and bush.
With five generous bedrooms (master with spacious walk-through robe and ensuite), huge family bathroom, mudroom’, large mezzanine loft, multiple entertaining areas and swimming pool, there is more than enough room for family and friends to revel or relax in this rural idyll.
At the heart of this unique home is a spectacular open-plan kitchen/living/dining space – complete with wood-burning fireplace and reverse-cycle air conditioner – set underneath a soaring cathedral ceiling.
Greenfields’, as the property is aptly known, features well-established pastures on unique peaty soil. The high water table ensures drought-proof paddocks, with some slightly elevated paddock areas. The house is set on elevated land at the back of the property 350m from Nelson Bay Road for total privacy.
Currently established for horses, the property includes: electric fencing with six paddocks; water; separate grass on sand arena (approx. 30m x 50m)for all-weather riding; ; a large three-bay north-facing three-sided shed; a tie-up area adjacent to shed for feed/tack; and a skillion roof enclosed area for a three-horse float.
Seven minutes to the beach, just 15 minutes away from Newcastle (international) Airport, and only 40 minutes to the revitalised city of Newcastle, Greenfields’ has something for everyone.
