Set on almost twenty acres of rolling lawns and in the beating heart of some of the Hunter Valley's finest wineries and restaurants, Thistle Hill Guesthouse is an iconic Wine Country estate complete with resort-style pools, a boutique vineyard, function spaces, owners accommodation and plenty of opportunity for the future. It performs very strongly with approximately $800,000 revenue per annum and is immaculately presented.
The double brick guesthouse consists of eight Hamptons styled ensuited rooms flanked by wide verandas each with its own entrance - all separately air-conditioned and surrounded by beautiful gardens. Magnificent white iceberg roses that have become a signature of the property, border the herringbone pathway to the main entrance. The guesthouse building houses an office, store room, peaceful guest lounge, atrium courtyard flanked by imported French antique gates and further low maintenance gardens. It is also home to the French farmhouse kitchen complete with chandeliers and an open fireplace.
A nearby pavilion is used for private functions, conferences, small weddings and health retreats . Wall to wall bifold glass doors open onto wraparound decks allowing guests to take in beautiful views over the 3 megalitre dam, huge sandstone firepit and boutique Semillon vineyard. Further decking leads you to an inground walled pool, water feature and BBQ area.
Lavender Cottage is a self-contained building that houses two ensuited King bedrooms, a generous lounge, dining and kitchen area, again with wraparound verandahs, private BBQ area and dedicated parking. Located next to the orchard Lavendar cottage has sunset views over a second dam and the vineyard.
An almost-new owners residence with five generous bedrooms and three bathrooms offers owners their own space with several living areas or the opportunity for even more income as the current owners do. The main residence has a chic kitchen with stone tops, stainless appliances and massive butler's pantry. Two of the rooms are ensuited and the master offers a huge lockable walk-in robe. Three living spaces adjoin the dining rooms which flows through wide bifold doors to the covered outdoor entertaining and BBQ and entertaining area. The outside area has a sparkling state of the art swimming pool with limestone surrounds, superb landscaping and manicured lawns and gardens.
A 4 bay shed with additional workshop and adjoining bathroom, covered machinery bay, separate laundry and linen rooms are kept separate to the main guest areas.
