Coral Oaks and The Bale – A private Hunter Valley Sanctuary

5 4 6

Set across 25 fertile acres on the banks of Dry Creek, this remarkable Hunter Valley retreat offers a rare blend of leafy seclusion, abundant water and genuine self-sustained living. Wrapped in established trees and birdsong, it's a place where mornings begin with mist over the creek, afternoons are spent in the garden or by the pool, and evenings settle in beside the fire.

At its heart is a generous five-bedroom family home designed for relaxed country living. The master suite feels like a true treehouse, with large picture windows gazing into the canopy, a walk-in robe and a luxurious ensuite complete with deep soak tub. Downstairs, a second oversized bedroom with ensuite and built-in robes offers flexibility as an alternative master or guest retreat.

The home unfolds through multiple living spaces, a study nook and three additional bedrooms sharing a charming main bathroom with claw-foot bath overlooking the orchard. A huge country kitchen anchors daily life, featuring a fuel stove, extensive storage and a beautiful natural timber island bench — perfect for slow meals, preserving produce and gathering with family and friends.

Wide covered verandas wrap the house on all sides, inviting outdoor living year-round and creating countless quiet spots to read, reflect or simply enjoy the surrounding greenery.
Beyond the main residence, a converted dairy bales provides self-contained accommodation currently used for tourism, equally suited for extended family or visiting friends. There is also an art studio and potting shed within the larger shed, supporting creative pursuits and garden projects alike.

The land itself is a true highlight. Dual creek frontage and two large earth dams provide exceptional water security, while a significant established orchard delivers lemons, limes, oranges, stone fruit, figs, mulberries and much more (full list available on request). Vegetable gardens and a chicken coop complete the picture, allowing you to genuinely live from your own patch.

A stunning in-ground swimming pool with travertine surrounds offers a peaceful place to cool off on warm days, complemented by spectacular leafy surrounds that create privacy and calm in every direction.

Practical comforts include solar power (in addition to mains power) and solar hot water, wood-burning combustion heating, reverse-cycle air conditioning, an oversized modern double garage plus additional double carport.

This is a property for those seeking more than just a home — it's for people who value space, sustainability and connection to the land.
