Hinton NSW 2321

The property has been divided into five fenced areas, including secure and individual pens for chickens, ducks and Penny the pig, while the secure house yard provides peace of mind while children explore their surroundings.

Luxury children's outdoor equipment including a ground recessed trampoline certainly gives this property a truly impressive play space, while the sheer amount of land on offer will keep older, active kids busy with plenty of room for backyard cricket or football matches and an epic game of tips.

The older members of the family will also have plenty to occupy them, with the fenced pens allowing you to indulge in small-scale hobby farm fantasies while the property's established orchard and vegetable plots provide a bountiful and nutritious harvest with an extensive range of fruiting trees and bushes, as well as everything from onions, garlic and herbs to 10 different vegetable varieties.

Plentiful water tanks and a pop-up irrigation system making looking after the landscaped grounds easy, while a huge detached 9m x 14m shed and 3m-high carport towards the rear of the property has more than enough storage space for all your hobby farm equipment and machinery, ride-on mower, boat, caravan, motorbikes or trailer.

The home itself features an oversized triple garage for your everyday family vehicle needs, while a sweeping gravel driveway that leads to both the house and the shed provides ample off-street parking options.

If the property's external inclusions weren't impressive enough, you're sure to fall in love with the elegantly styled and meticulously finished home, which has more than enough space for the largest families.

Custom built by the owner in 2012 with a timber frame, rendered finished and lovely Monument grey Colorbond roof, the grand homestead creates a commanding yet sophisticated first impression complemented by a muted, earthy colour palette that allows it to sit naturally within the landscape.

Established gardens add a lush layer than helps soften the faade, while wide verandahs at the front, rear and one side of the home reinforces the property's traditional country ambience.

The elegant first impression continues inside where natural finishes including gorgeous timber laminate floorboards and a stacked stone-look feature wall behind the cosy wood-burning fireplace add warmth and texture to the rooms.

The earthy tones offer a sense of consistency throughout, while pops of colour on bedroom feature walls allow a touch of character to the private family spaces.

Five king-sized bedrooms ensure the home accommodates larger families, with the master suite offering a parents' oasis with a massive walk-through wardrobe behind the bedhead wall, a stunning ensuite with luxe, modern finishes and more than enough space in the main room to create a private sitting area.

A versatile office located next to the master suite is perfect for parents working from home, with an external door for client-facing convenience, while those who need even more sleeping space could convert this into an additional sixth bedroom.

The family bathroom is as gorgeous as the ensuite, with both having twin basin wall-hung vanities, 40mm stone benchtops and semi-frameless shower recesses, while a built-in bath with tiled surround in the main bathroom is great for those with young children.

The impressive scale of this home comes into focus in the living spaces, with an activities room in the bedroom wing providing a dedicated chill-out space for the children, while both the spacious rumpus room and home theatre offer versatile, soundproofed areas that can be closed off with lovely timber-framed frosted glass doors for added privacy.

The heart of the home is the expansive open plan kitchen, dining and living area, which connects seamlessly to the rear covered alfresco area through sliding glass stacker doors and provides the ideal indoor/outdoor entertaining space.

This space has a homely yet sophisticated feel with premium finishes giving it a sense of understated luxury while the gourmet kitchen, which looks like it has come straight off the pages of a glossy home magazine, is a chef's delight with an abundance of storage and preparation space, quality stainless steel appliances and a walk-in pantry.

Sleek 40mm stone benchtops and waterfall ends on the huge island bench add to the sleek style of the kitchen, complemented by the glass splashback and designer pendant lights.

Higher ceilings, plantation shutters, ducted air conditioning with 10 separate zones and CAT 5 data cabling throughout add to the premium quality finish of this property.

The property is ideally located in the quiet, riverside village of Hinton, where you can enjoy fresh air and wide open spaces while still being just five minutes from the heritage charm of Morpeth and less than 15 minutes from the bustling centres of Maitland, Raymond Terrace and the retail and entertainment hub of Stockland Green Hills Shopping Centre.

Hinton itself is perfect for families, with a range of local amenities just down the road including a lovely small primary school, sporting facilities and a playground perfect for younger children, while the beaches and restaurants of Newcastle are less than 45 minutes away.
