The bathrooms have been tastefully refurbished and the kitchen is well equipped with a 5 burner gas cooker. The lounge and dining rooms are elegant, have fireplaces and have an abundance of space for large furniture. The private rear verandah is a wonderful place to entertain guests or a lovely place to rest, being surrounded by attractive landscaping and looking onto the sparkling in ground pool. Unlike some homes of this era, this home is light and airy, and doesn't require renovation work. Walking distance to the banks of the Hunter River, restaurants and shops, and only 30 mins to Pokolbin wineries, this is truly a unique property. This property was originally built (Circa 1834) for John Hannan and by the end of 1843, Hannan House became a temporary hospital for the district when the Benevolent Asylum situated in Caroline Chisholm's barracks became inadequate for the needs of the community. The house was used in this capacity until the new Maitland Hospital was opened in 1849. The first ten patients were received from Hannan House into the new hospital on 8th November 1849 For further details contact PRDNATIONWIDE
