A young man is recovering in hospital following a violent home invasion at Farley overnight.
Police say two armed men stormed the home in Mapplewell Circuit just before 11.00pm on Thursday and threatened the five occupants while demanding money.
One of the alleged offenders was armed with a baseball bat.
It's not clear at this stage if their demands were met before they fled.
A 22-year-old man was taken to Maitland Hospital for treatment of non-life threatening injuries.
Police have set up a crime scene as investigations continue.
