The Estate of 44 acres sits within a large sweeping bend in the Hunter River . Redolent with history , the estate bred a Melbourne Cup winner in the 1860s. Distinguished by large exotic trees planted in the Victorian era creating the country park like grounds, this is a substantial and handsome early Victorian country home. From sandstone verandahs the House enjoys panoramic views from Brokenback to Barrington over rich Hunter River countryside grazed by a Fresian dairyherd. Located within easy reach of Broke/Fordwich and Pokolbin vineyards and wineries.
