This perfectly private 5 acres is just 1100m from the heart of Bellingen. It offers a solid concrete block home with 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, open plan living/dining/kitchen, polished timber floors and covered verandah 4 sides. There’s a separate guestroom with bathroom adjacent plus there’s a separate studio with timber floors, open plan, with separate room, bathroom and kitchenette. The gardens are well established, there’s a large greenhouse, a workshop, a spring fed dam and an above ground pool – your dream come true?

When you arrive at this property, park in your choice of 2 carports and enter another world. Perfectly privatised from the road with well established native gardens and centrally located on the block to give you lots of space and privacy either side with your own wildlife corridor and dam behind.

Through the courtyard and across the verandah, you’ll step into the open pan living/dining/kitchen area with polished timber floors, slow combustion log burner, reverse cycle split system air conditioner and good natural light. The kitchen is dated, but functional and offers good cupboard and bench space, walkin pantry, electric oven and cooktop, dishwasher and double stainless steel sink overlooking the garden.

The living/dining (12 x 5m) offers plenty of space and 4 doors onto the covered verandah, while bedroom 1 (5 x 4.5m) also has direct access to the covered verandah and bedroom 2 (4 x 3.5m) looks out to the garden. The bathroom is compact but offers separate bath and shower, vanity and toilet.

The 3rd bedroom or guest room (6 x 4m) is just 5m away across the covered courtyard, with another bathroom adjacent offering shower and toilet, and the laundry next door. The courtyard is also the gateway to the above-ground, decked in pool – great on those hot summer days and hidden around the back you’ll find a fantastic little workshop space.

Tucked away privately from the house and overlooking the spring fed dam is the separate studio with open plan area (8 x 5m), separate room (4 x 3m), kitchenette and bathroom with shower, toilet and classic enamel sink. There’s brand new decks front and back with the back deck overlooking the dam and your own “wildlife reserve”.

Now that we’re outside, let’s talk about the approximately 2-3 acres of cleared land, perfect for running livestock of your choice and including some gently sloping, north facing land complete with large greenhouse (15 x 6m) and double garden shed. There’s an abundance of food trees here including mangoes, grapefruit, lemonade, lemons, limes, oranges, strawberry guava, pineapple guava, Brazilian cherry, mandarins, peach and passionfruit.

There are lots of well-established native trees that attract an abundance of birds throughout the year, a great chook house and yard, and good fencing throughout. The property has town water as well as tank water and the natural bushland around the dam attracts a myriad of wildlife and birdlife that you can happily admire, while taking some refreshments on your back verandah.

Set in a well-elevated position, this property enjoys mountain glimpses and fantastic, cool summer breezes and remember, it’s just 1100m stroll from the heart of Bellingen. It also comes with council approved DA for extensive, architect designed additions and renovation if you’d like to transition this property into the world of its “million dollar neighbours”.

A rare offering at a reasonable price.
