On the banks of Wollombi Brook in the heart of Broke Fordwich, an original soldier settler's cottage sits on approximately 32 acres of Hunter Valley Wine Country. With rows of Chardonnay and Semillon and the quiet of the brook, it's the sort of place that invites you to put the kettle on and open a bottle of local wine.
The two-bedroom, one-bathroom cottage is intimate and full of character. It would make a lovely country home or a weekend retreat, with Broke Fordwich's small cellar doors and long lunches close at hand. The cottage is currently tenanted and is expected to be vacant in January 2027.
Approximately 5.2 hectares of the 12.97-hectare holding are planted to Chardonnay and Semillon, two of the Hunter Valley's signature white varieties. There is an established market for the fruit, offering an incoming owner the opportunity to continue supplying grapes from a productive boutique vineyard.
The vines are supported by a Broke Fordwich PID irrigation allocation, a Water Access Licence associated with Wollombi Brook and a large, lined irrigation dam for on-site storage. Machinery shedding and agricultural infrastructure support the vineyard's day-to-day operation. The property is zoned RU4 Primary Production Small Lots within the Singleton local government area.
It is approximately 2 hours (160km) from Sydney and 1 hour (80km) from Newcastle.
Inspection by private apointment.
