The Agent Loves
"Blocks like this are tightly held for a reason. You've got the river wrapping around you, a generous parcel of usable land, and Raymond Terrace right down the road. It's a lifestyle move that makes everyday life beautiful."

The Key Features
● 15.96ha of level, usable grazing country
● Located on a beautiful river bend position
● Waterfrontage to three sides
● RU1 Primary Production zoning with excellent convenience

The Location
Millers Forest is a leafy, semi-rural pocket in the Hunter, where wide blocks, paddocks and bushland give everyday life a calmer rhythm. You're minutes from Raymond Terrace for supermarkets, cafés, medical services and sport, while Maitland's shopping and dining scene is an easy drive in the other direction. Families love the local primary school and the sense of community that comes with a smaller postcode. On weekends, it's simple to swap gum trees for coastline, with Port Stephens' beaches, boat ramps and national park trails within reach, as is Newcastle's airport and city buzz.

Raymond Terrace - 9 min (7.2km)
Maitland - 24 min (21.2km)
Newcastle Airport - 24 min (24.2km)
Newcastle - 40 min (32.0km)

The Opportunity
Set on a sweeping bend of the river, 289 Monkleys Road, is the kind of land offering that makes you pause - because blocks with this much water frontage (yes, to three sides) don't pop up every day. Spanning approximately 15.96 hectares of wide-open, usable country, it's a rare chance to create your own rural reset without feeling miles from everything.

The lay of the land is beautifully simple: big skies, green paddocks, established rural fencing, and fertile soil suited to cattle, horses, or your own produce patch. A flood mound has been recently completed, adding peace of mind and practicality, and there's already DA approval in place for a large shed on the mound - ideal for machinery, storage, or building the bones of your future setup. Town water is available to the site, and town power is close by at the neighbouring rural property, making the next steps feel refreshingly achievable.

Zoned RU1 Primary Production, this is a property with genuine versatility - perfect for hobby farming, equestrian pursuits, or designing a private sanctuary where weekends look like river walks, morning feed rounds, and sunsets that never get old.

Despite the peaceful country setting, you're still incredibly well connected: around 6 minutes to Raymond Terrace for shops, cafés and day-to-day essentials, within easy reach of Maitland's major medical facilities and Green Hills shopping, and roughly 20–30 minutes to Newcastle for beaches, dining, work and entertainment. Newcastle Airport is also within around 20 minutes, keeping travel plans effortless.

If you've been waiting for a substantial parcel of land in a tightly held lifestyle pocket - with water, space, and a head start on the groundwork - 289 Monkleys Road is ready when you are.
