24 Coolawine Road Wollombi NSW 2325

Set across 365 acres of gently rolling valley country just outside Wollombi, The Glen is comprised of five separate titles and you know it is special from the moment you arrive.

The approach is a good one—Liquidambar and Eucalypts lining the driveway before it opens into a private valley where the land settles and opens out to pasture. This is genuine cattle country, with productive pastures and sections previously sown to oats and lucerne, balanced by a natural creek that winds its way through the holding.

At its centre sits the original sandstone cottage, built in the 1830s and reflective of the area's early colonial, convict-built history. There's a real sense of permanence to it—thick stone walls, simple lines, and a connection to the land that's hard to replicate. Positioned within the historic Wollombi Valley, not far from the village itself, it carries the character of one of the district's earliest properties.

Inside, the home has been comfortably updated without losing that original feel. Five bedrooms and two-and-a-half bathrooms make it well suited to extended family or guests, while the central open-plan living area brings everyone together around a large wood-burning fireplace. It's practical, warm, and easy to settle into.

Wide verandahs wrap the home and look out across established gardens and the broader landscape, with a separate outdoor entertaining area and its own fireplace adding another place to gather. It all feels considered, but not overdone—just spaces that you'll naturally use.

And that's really where The Glen stands apart.

You can run cattle, keep the land in good order, and still have it as somewhere you disappear to at the end of the week. Friday afternoons roll into long evenings by the fire. Days are spent walking the paddocks or down by the creek, with kids swimming and exploring while everything else slows down.

It's quiet in the way good country is quiet. Clear skies, proper stars, and time that stretches a bit further than it does in town.

Only a few minutes from Wollombi village and within easy reach of the Hunter Valley's vineyards and restaurants, The Glen offers that balance that's getting harder to find—something with real substance, but also somewhere you genuinely want to be.
