Hunter Valley Farmhouse Escape on 80 Acres

Set across 80 serene acres in the rolling countryside of Congewai, this newly renovated farmhouse offers a relaxed and refined escape in the heart of the Hunter Valley region. Thoughtfully updated with air conditioning throughout, a beautifully redesigned kitchen and bathroom, refreshed living spaces, and a cosy fireplace, the home blends modern comfort with classic country charm. Whether gathering for a wine-filled weekend, family celebration, or peaceful rural retreat, this is a setting designed for slow mornings and golden-hour sunsets.

Perfectly positioned just 20 minutes from Pokolbin’s celebrated wineries and major event venues, and approximately 1 hour 30 minutes from Wahroonga at the start of the M1, the property offers both accessibility and true seclusion. Local corner stores are within five minutes, with larger supermarkets just 10 minutes away, ensuring convenience without compromising the sense of escape.

The farmhouse comfortably accommodates up to eight adults across four well-appointed bedrooms. The flexible master bedroom features a king bed that can be split into two singles, alongside two queen bedrooms and a fourth bedroom with two king singles. A rollaway bed is available for one additional guest (guests to provide bedding if using). In the warmer months, air conditioning keeps both bedrooms and living areas cool, while the cooler seasons invite evenings gathered around the newly installed fireplace or outdoor firepit beneath expansive country skies. Each bedroom also includes its own heating for added comfort year-round.

Inside, the home offers welcoming communal spaces ideal for shared meals and relaxed conversation. The updated kitchen is well-equipped for preparing farm-style breakfasts or long lunches paired with local wines. Large windows frame sweeping rural views, while the wrap-around enclosed deck provides the perfect vantage point to unwind with a glass in hand as kangaroos graze at dusk.

Outdoors, the vast grounds invite simple pleasures, a casual game of cricket or soccer on the lawn, quiet walks across the acreage, or scenic drives through the surrounding countryside. For those travelling with animals, well-behaved guest dogs are welcome with prior arrangement (supervision required at all times). Horses are also accommodated, with a paddock available upon request (fees and waiver apply). The quiet country roads and nearby riding trails offer picturesque routes for equestrian guests.

This is a country retreat where wide open space, fresh air, and understated comfort come together, close enough to the vineyards for indulgence, yet far enough away to feel completely removed from the everyday.
