FROM the charming fusion of tuck-point brickwork and mortared stone to the ornate interior arch, this four-bedroom home is both beautiful and practical.
Your family will love the rural lifestyle offered here. The home sits on 11 acres at McKees Hill, conveniently located only 15 minutes from the CBDs of Lismore and Casino.
The property has six fenced undulating paddocks and a spring-fed dam to guarantee your water supply. The dam supplies water for stock via gravity-fed troughs and the garden through a large ag pump. A variety of sheds, including a two-bay machinery shed, ensure you’ll never want for storage space.
Timber cattle yards, a horse arena and animal shelters provide for a variety of stock. The home block has raised vegetable garden beds for the vegies as well as fruit trees and an aviary/chook pen.
From the outside, the home’s broad covered verandahs and stone and brick construction give it a rustic feel. Inside you’ll find a tasteful combination of modern design with period touches, such as the magnificent stone, timber and glass setting for the slow combustion heater in the lounge.
The kitchen is a delightful space with broad benches and timber cabinetry offering an abundance of storage. There is a large wall-mounted electric oven and an easy-clean ceramic/glass cooktop.
Three of the spacious bedrooms have built-in robes and open onto the verandah through stunning stained-glass French doors.
Skylights fill this comfortable home with natural light and both solar hot water and the solar power system significantly reduce electricity usage.
The kids will love the saltwater swimming pool, which has a built-in self-cleaning system so the only thing you have to do with the pool is enjoy it.
A self-contained studio next to the house offers accommodation for guests or an independent living space for teenage children. Alternatively it would serve well as an office, a studio, music room, or -as it is currently used – a gym.
