Proudly positioned high on Hospital Hill is one of Cessnock’s most impressive, historically significant, and admired homes. This renowned Victorian residence is instantly identifiable by its extraordinary street presence, and grand presentation of a bygone era.
Standing stately beyond the picture-perfect, white picket fence and a pretty rose entwined arbor is a path leading to a grand flight of stairs. A top the stairs is a return verandah that takes full advantage of the sweeping vistas stretching to the Watagan Range.
As you step inside, the home envelops you in a homely warmth that goes beyond words, only truly understood through firsthand experience. The wide central foyer, adorned with polished timber floors and ornate ceilings, holds within it over a century's worth of life and memories.
On one side of the foyer is an enormous formal lounge room filled with charming period features, imposing timber fretwork, fireplace, high pressed metal ceilings, and a bay window that floods the room with an abundance of natural light through the beautiful, coloured glass panels whilst also presenting views overlooking the town. On the other side is a large master-suite with walk in robe and ensuite.
Residing in the heart of the home is a modern kitchen that enjoys full exposure to the extensive dining and family area and from this central hub is easy access to the pool & cabana area, courtyard, and stairs to the upstairs loft.
The main bathroom combines elegance and old-world charm with floor to ceiling tiles, large bathtub, open shower, and an antique sideboard that is now an eye-catching vanity.
Situated on one of the largest residential blocks in the highly sought-after hilltop location, this residence has more than enough room for the extensive landscaping and secure lockup garaging that the property possesses.
Convenience is paramount, with close proximity to essential amenities in Cessnock CBD. The location is also just minutes away from schools, the hospital, and within close proximity to numerous desirable attractions in Hunter Valley Wine Country, all reachable within a short 15-minute drive (approximately 15km). The sandy beaches of Newcastle are within an hour's drive (50.7km), and Sydney is less than two hours away (161.2km)..
