Looking for views? You will not be disappointed here with northerly mountain AND river views, together with elevation and cool summer breezes. This one-owner, timber home offers 3 bedrooms plus study (easily made into a 4 bed and study), open-plan living/dining/chef’s kitchen, covered deck and high ceilings set on close to 4 acres with well-established, minimum maintenance gardens, east of Bellingen.
As many would know, Fernmount is a sought-after and tightly-held area offering small-acre lifestyle properties east of Bellingen. When you arrive at this property, with the home sited in an idyllic, north-facing, elevated location, you’ll park in the double carport and enjoy the short path through lovely gardens to the front, covered, entry deck.
You’ll step through the door and take a deep breath as you enjoy the panoramic, northerly mountain and river views. The entry is tiled, leading to carpet that continues throughout the living and bedroom areas. There’s ‘space a-plenty’ – the living/dining, which leads to the ever-popular, covered deck which probably ranks as the favourite ‘room’ in the house.
The timber kitchen is an absolute delight and enjoys those magnificent mountain and river views while offering good bench, cupboard and drawer space, walk-in pantry, 5-burner gas cook top, double electric oven, Bosch dishwasher and double stainless steel sink. The kitchen adjoins and looks through the family room to those amazing views and opens directly onto the covered deck.
At this end of the house we also find the spacious (4.4 x 6.6m) guest room which has actually been designed and wired to be easily converted to 2 bedrooms if required. You’ll also enjoy those fantastic views and direct access to the covered deck from the guest room as well.
The main bathroom is adjacent, with shower over spa bath, small vanity and dual-flush toilet, cleverly teamed up with the ‘laundry in a cupboard’.
At the other end of the house, we find the main bedroom (4.2 x 3.5m) with walk-in robe, direct access to the covered deck and, oh, did I mention the incredible views? You’ll find another private bathroom here, with shower, small vanity and dual-flush toilet, which can be accessed by guests without going through the bedroom.
Adjacent to the main bedroom is the study (3.2 x 3.2m approx.) with, yes, you guessed it, direct access to the covered deck and more of those splendiferous views.
Downstairs, now, we find a totally private, additional bedroom/studio space with its own covered veranda and yes, of course, river and mountain views.
Well, if you have the impression that the views here are something of a feature, you’d be right – but there’s lots more to go with the views. The one-owner timber home as described, town water, no internal load-bearing walls, fantastic mobile phone and TV reception, lots of storage (including lock-up (5 x 2.5m) space at rear of carport), heaps of power points (14 in the kitchen alone!), lily-covered dam and yes, of course, the first and last word(s)…THE VIEW!
