A RICH PAST, AN EXCEPTIONAL FUTURE: 'MERAH' HITS THE MARKET

Circa 1862, 'Merah' is a stunning heritage residence, steeped in character and exquisite craftsmanship. This remarkable property tells the story of generations past, its timeless beauty reflected in every detail. Over the years, Merah has served many purposes, each adding a new chapter to its rich and storied history. Now, offered to the market for the first time in over 20 years, this iconic home presents a rare opportunity to become part of its enduring legacy.
Set on the fringe of Singleton's main street, Merah's prominent position makes it not only an exquisite family home but also an exceptional opportunity for a boutique business or lifestyle venture (STCA). With MU1 Mixed Use zoning, the potential here is exceptional.
The lower level welcomes you with a grand entry that unfolds to reveal elegant formal living and dining rooms, along with versatile spaces that offer the flexibility to function as bedrooms, dedicated offices, or additional living areas.
The shaker style kitchen is a culinary haven featuring stone benchtops, a fluted English farm sink, four-door pantry, 'Falcon' oven with double stove and gas cooktop, dishwasher and scullery/laundry with ample storage. A fully enclosed entertaining area with café blinds provides a seamless indoor–outdoor flow for year-round gatherings.
The elegant cedar staircase, framed by an ornate archway, leads to the upper level where the main bathroom delights with a freestanding clawfoot bathtub and a bespoke cedar vanity. Each upstairs bedroom opens onto the balcony through French doors, with the master bedroom also enjoying its own private ensuite.
Throughout the home, soaring ceilings and rich Oregon floors continue to impress, while ornate fireplaces and chandeliers enhance the sense of sophistication.
Outside established gardens, fruit trees and vegetable beds create a tranquil setting, complimented by a paved entertaining space and separately fenced rear block with original double storey stables and off street parking spaces.
Also included is an Arlo security system, commercial multi-split air conditioning system and a commercial-grade 19-panel Solarhart solar system, among other quality features.
Singleton is located on the northern edge of the Hunter Valley wine region. The riverside town offers convenient access to nearby bushland, national parks, and boutique wineries with quality cellar doors, restaurants, and concert venues. It's also within a short commute of larger regional centres and some of the region's best beaches.
This is more than a home. It is a legacy - a rare opportunity to own a treasured piece of Singleton's history.
