luxury houses for sale Pokolbin, Australia
Contemporary house with garden and terrace Pokolbin (Australia)
Designed by acclaimed Dorn Architects, this exceptional contemporary residence is a study in proportion, light and restraint — architecturally striking, beautifully resolved and fundamentally practical.Set on a substantial 1,537m² parcel within one of The Vintage's most sought-after gated precincts, the home is naturally bunkered into the landscape, enjoying a spectacular north-facing orientation and sweeping views across the estate towards the Barrington Ranges.Established landscaping creates exceptional privacy, while surrounding parkland and green open space give the property an extraordinary sense of scale. A broad lawn offers genuine usable space for children, pets and entertaining, with carefully positioned glazing borrowing from the landscape beyond the boundary.Arrival is suitably impressive. A monumental pivot door opens to a soaring, skylit foyer, immediately revealing the home's clean architectural lines, sophisticated palette and beautifully framed views.At its heart is an extraordinary open-plan living space, anchored by a dramatic kitchen at one end and a gas log fire set within a panelled moss-green feature wall at the other. Enormous floor-to-ceiling glass walls fold away on both sides, creating a seamless connection to the outdoors, while oversized adjustable shutters allow the home to respond beautifully to the seasons.The dark, moody kitchen features deep grey stone, extensive cabinetry and Miele appliances including double ovens and induction cooking. An enormous butler's pantry provides exceptional preparation and storage space.The main suite occupies its own private wing. A downstairs snug provides an intimate retreat, with a broad staircase and private elevator leading to the elevated bedroom above. Floor-to-ceiling glass captures panoramic views across the golf course towards the Barrington Ranges, while a private balcony is perfectly positioned for morning coffee as hot-air balloons drift across the valley.A vast dressing room and luxurious ensuite complete the suite, with an oversized stone bath beside bi-fold windows, expansive double vanity, underfloor heating and long open triple shower creating the atmosphere of a private spa.At the opposite end of the home, three generous guest bedrooms each feature an ensuite, built-in robes and French-door garden access. The wing can operate beautifully for a family or simply be closed away when guests or grandchildren aren't in residence.A protected alfresco entertaining area incorporates a sleek outdoor kitchen with built-in refrigerator, barbecue and sink, making it ideal for year-round entertaining.Importantly, this is an architectural home that works exceptionally well in everyday life. There is a dedicated home office, impressive wine cellar, substantial walk-in storage, oversized laundry with private drying courtyard, guest powder room and contemporary mudroom.The oversized double garage connects to the residence through a striking glass annexe, while practical features include substantial solar power and automatic irrigation.The established gardens soften the architecture beautifully while still leaving scope for a future owner to make their own mark.The setting is equally compelling. The Vintage has evolved into one of the Hunter Valley's most desirable residential communities, offering kilometres of walking paths, landscaped parkland and the championship golf course, together with dining at Nineteen and Mezze. Optional social membership provides access to swimming pools, gymnasium facilities, tennis courts and recreational spaces.Beyond the estate, world-class wineries, acclaimed restaurants, cellar doors and concert venues are all on the doorstep.Despite the sense of escape, Sydney CBD is approximately two hours away, while Newcastle's beaches and airport are under an hour — making this equally compelling as a permanent residence or luxury Hunter Valley retreat.This is architecture without compromise to liveability: dramatic without being ostentatious, contemporary without being cold, and luxurious without sacrificing practicality.Private. Modern. Exceptionally practical. Utterly spectacular.Inspection by private appointment.

House with pool and garden Pokolbin (Australia)
Set quietly amongst established greenery, framed by pear trees that turn red in autumn and tall hedgerows that close the world out, this is a residence of substance—designed not just to be seen, but to be lived in and enjoyed.It also belongs to a different school of thinking.A time when homes were built with patience. With weight. With materials chosen for how they would age, not just how they would look on day one. The reality is, very few homes are built like this anymore—largely because they simply can't be. The cost, the craftsmanship, the time. Here, none of that was compromised.From the moment you step inside, the scale reveals itself. Cathedral ceilings rise above expansive living spaces, while banks of louvre windows draw in soft, shifting light and invite the breeze to move naturally through the home. It's a house that breathes—cool in summer, warm and grounded in winter. At its heart, the main living pavilion is anchored by a striking sandstone fireplace, with New Guinea Rosewood features woven throughout—rich, tactile and enduring. Marble floors and rich timber underfoot, generous proportions in every direction, and a connection to the outdoors that feels effortless rather than forced.Wide, covered verandahs wrap the home—made for long lunches, late evenings and everything in between. Out here, an outdoor sandstone fireplace, integrated heaters and electric blinds create a space that works year-round. This is where you'll watch the sun drop behind the trees, glass in hand, without ever needing to leave. Or a storm roll in. Or the seasons change colour before your eyes.A central courtyard with in-ground pool sits between the two pavilions, offering privacy, light and a natural focal point. The breezeway that connects them—finished with custom New Guinea Rosewood doors opening both ways—lets the home open up completely or close itself off, depending on the season or mood. Outdoor cinema has been known to happen from time to time. Accommodation is generous and flexible. The main residence offers five bedrooms across two levels, including a private upper-level retreat with its own balcony, while a separate self-contained apartment—overlooking parkland—provides independence for guests, extended family or an additional income stream.Below, an underground wine cellar quietly completes the picture.Importantly, while the home speaks to a more enduring era of construction, it is filled with cutting edge technology. A new solar system paired with a Tesla battery provides modern efficiency and energy resilience—thoughtfully integrated without compromising the character of the home.Generous double garaging plus a workshop or cart store, established Chinese elms, considered landscaping and a setting that feels both private and connected—this is a home that hasn't chased trends, and never needed to.It's a reminder of what can be created when cost isn't the driver—only quality, longevity and the way a home should 'feel'. And that's why it stands alone. And always will. Inspection by private appointment.
