63 Allyn River Road, East Gresford, NSW 2311

A Millpond is a place of still water, and time will stand still for you at Millpond - one of the most magnificently appointed rural estates in the lower Hunter Valley. Millpond holds court on 33 acres covering a quiet bend of the pristine Allyn River, on the outskirts of the historic village of Gresford. The soaring timber and stone home is positioned perfectly to overlook the pastures and passive water below from its grand floor to ceiling windows, complimented by unique vantages from every verandah and parklike surrounds.

The architecturally designed and built home is truly one of a kind, providing plenty of room to entertain under the soaring ceilings, while also delivering all the necessities with a touch of luxury, including the quality appointed and spacious kitchen, multiple living and dining areas and valuing quiet spaces for family to unwind. The bedrooms too are spacious and light, spaced over the full three stories, with ample and relaxing bathrooms on all levels as well. The master-suite is bigger than many inner city units, with incredible mountain vistas over the magnificent Twin River valley surrounds. The central fixture of the winding timber staircase, connects the home beautifully across all floors. 

Millpond utilises different textures and bespoke details such as inlayed feature timber work to create a sense of warmth and connection to the rural surrounds. The windows though, are the true hero, cascading light across all levels, allowing the seasonal changes outside to create living artwork in every room. Extensive efforts have been taken to meld the home with its beautiful rural surrounds with expansive native tree and orchard plantings maturing across the property as well as the well-established homestead garden.

However, this truly is an estate made for entertaining. The home is surrounded by resort standard lifestyle inclusions from the champion size tennis court to family pool area and cabana. There are multiple outdoor entertaining spaces including a grape woven arbour complete with pizza oven, and outdoor fire pit space with sandstone landscaping features throughout. The garage can easily accommodate a family sized gym, and the lowest level of the home includes a media room and billiards table and wine cellar. There is quite literally nothing more to want for. The river itself is easily accessed for a leisurely paddle or picnic, a spot of fishing or just to immerse yourself in the magic of Millpond.
The surrounding pastures include productive river flats that have been sustainably grazed with well maintained fencing and space to run your own livestock. A large multibay machinery shed provides the perfect space for the additional farm equipment - if you ever feel like getting to work that is!!
