DA Lodged for Golf Clubhouse at Lovedale Farm’s Championship Course

Marking another milestone for the new $1 billion world-class residential golfing community in the heart of Hunter Valley wine country, Capital Corporation has lodged plans for the golf course clubhouse that is set to become a vibrant hub for Lovedale Farm golfers and the wider Hunter Valley community.

The DA lodgement follows the success of Lovedale Farm’s first stage release of designer homes, with over 70% sold, and a combined value of $55M.

Purchasers so far include a mix of local upgraders, Sydney-based buyers, and golf enthusiasts from Newcastle and the Central Coast.

The 1,200 square metre clubhouse is designed to elevate the 18-hole championship golf experience at Lovedale Farm and will include a range of facilities tailored to both golf enthusiasts and lifestyle-focused residents.

Features include a reception lounge, pro-shop, a signature restaurant and bar, an exclusive members’ lounge, and event spaces for weddings, meetings and conferences.

“This Clubhouse is a cornerstone of our British heartland-style golf course with modern golfing amenities and an exceptional hospitality offering for players and residents. The building is designed to complement the natural beauty of the surrounding landscape,” said Jim Hunter, Director of Capital Corporation.

“Lovedale Farm’s residential and tourism precincts have been purposefully designed around the golf course – not the other way around. This is a clear reflection of our commitment to establishing Australia’s leading lifestyle and golfing destination.”

Membership of Lovedale Farm Golf Club will provide preferred tee times, access to the members’ lounge, and exclusive discounts on cart hire, food and beverage and services. Residents of Lovedale Farm will receive additional benefits including waived joining fees and reduced green fees as part of their ownership privileges.

The Lovedale Farm masterplan, developed by award-winning architects Hachem, brings together a considered vision for leisure and community living in Hunter Valley wine country. The Clubhouse sits within the broader vision that includes the championship golf course, a premium resort, a vibrant dining precinct and high-end residential offering.

Capital Corporation has also announced the first release of land, priced from $995,000. This first Lifestyle Land release offers generous blocks ranging from 1,100m² to 3,000m², giving buyers the opportunity to custom-build a home in one of the Hunter Valley’s most sought-after addresses.

“The Lifestyle Land release has been designed to maximise views to the surrounding remnant woodlands,” added Jim Hunter. “These lots offer the perfect mix of luxury and connection to nature.”

Lovedale Farm is expected to deliver approximately 1,250 jobs during construction and inject over $300 million into the local economy. Once complete, the 240-hectare, precinct on Wine Country Drive is projected to contribute $100 million per annum to the Hunter Valley region, further enhancing its reputation as a key tourism and lifestyle destination.

The Lovedale Farm display suite at Hunter Valley Gardens is now open, offering a glimpse into the exceptional lifestyle that awaits future residents and visitors, an experience that’s truly redefining rural luxury.

Lovedale Farm’s first on site display home is scheduled for completion in October 2025.
