A rare point-of-difference property with facilities unparalleled in this market, across ~9 hectares of picturesque Hunter Valley countryside.
Ellington is a landmark Hunter Valley estate set amongst the grand estates and fertile pastures of Roughit, Mitchells Flat and Glendon, on the northern side of the Hunter River — one of the most picturesque parts of the rural Hunter, yet only an hour’s drive to the beaches of Port Stephens and Newcastle.
The property features a fully licensed and operational small and large animal veterinary hospital with state-of-the-art amenities and an entirely separate commercial access, keeping the main residence completely private. For a veterinary professional seeking a practice with lifestyle attached — or an operator looking for a facility ready from day one — this is a genuinely rare find. More on the hospital →
A Development Application for a second dwelling has already been obtained. The approval is in place — the next owner simply needs to build. This opens the door to multi-generational family living, staff or locum accommodation, or additional income generation.
Beyond the automatic gates, the luxurious farmhouse offers four generous bedrooms, open-plan living and two large living spaces, a cosy wood fire and ducted air conditioning throughout, with deep verandahs framing gorgeous views over the creek and valley. Garaging is exceptional — a double garage plus room for up to eight more vehicles and the caravan or boat — and a separate, fully self-contained one-bedroom cottage adds flexible guest, family or income accommodation.

The grounds are equally impressive: an equestrian arena, stockyards and land fully fenced into paddocks of varying sizes; two large air-conditioned stables (currently the Tamaruke breeding facility, with operational kitchens and clinic areas, and readily converted to horse stables or other uses); a double-storey shed for additional kennels; and a four-bay machinery shed. Water security is outstanding — ample tank storage plus a substantial 7-megalitre dam that keeps the grounds lush — while an automatic backup generator ensures continuity throughout.
