You can still catch the train to Eungai Rail, but being an “as required stop” you need to arrange to be let off at the unattended station. 60 years ago the story was different with the town hosting a sizeable station and the main activity centring on the timber industry. The quiet North Coast village is located just off the Pacific Highway halfway between Sydney and Brisbane and also in the middle of the coastal centres of Coffs Harbour and Port Macquarie. Scotts Head and Grassy Head beaches are a 15 minute drive away.
The relaxed environment of the town is enhanced even more via this gorgeous hardwood home on a generous 1031m2 block. No matter where you are around the property there is a calming spot to enjoy your day. Three spacious verandahs are cool and comfortable and the private leafy garden is a joy yet easily maintained.
The home was moved onto the block around 20 years ago so enjoys upgraded piers, plumbing and electrical systems. Big rooms and high ceilings are features relished by the owner along with polished floors, carpeted bedrooms, combustion wood fire and gas heating for those cool mornings, and ceilings fans and reverse cycle air-conditioning for summer. Stained glass highlights and French doors maintain the period character of the home.
The layout includes 3 big bedrooms, open plan kitchen/living, separate dining, bathroom and laundry. A carport along the side is provided for car accommodation.
The solar hot water system was connected in 2009 and the following year a 2.2Kw back-to-the-grid solar power system was installed, all assisting enormously to reduce living costs. 2×5000 gallon concrete tanks supply ample water to the house whilst a smaller tank provides for the gardens.
Enjoy a village lifestyle and amaze at how much you relax.
