Set within established parkland at the gateway to the Hunter Valley, The Hermitage is a thoughtfully masterplanned land lease community for active over 55s.
Shaped by the land’s natural contours, three neighbourhood precincts unfold around a central community hub, with expansive green space, a gated sense of privacy, and the revival of former Stonebridge golf holes creating a place defined by openness, character and connection.

Once shaped by its working roots, the Hunter region now draws people seeking space and community. Minutes from Pokolbin’s vineyards, The Hermitage balances rural calm with everyday convenience.
Set on the border of Cessnock and Pokolbin, The Hermitage embraces the natural beauty and community spirit that define the Hunter Valley. Cessnock’s shops and services are just 2.4km away, Pokolbin’s vineyards minutes down the road, and Newcastle’s beaches an hour’s drive. It’s a place ready for a new chapter.
Throughout The Hermitage, curated indoor and outdoor spaces have been carefully planned to bring people together while still celebrating the openness of the landscape.
