This is a quality crafted, large, north facing, Australian colonial residence on an easily managed 5 acres only minutes from the township of Bellingen. The address is very quiet and private and does not take the morning and afternoon heavy traffic of the main road into Bellingen from the Pacific Highway. Apart from the house, there is a fully lined more-than-double “garage” with power that could be guest accommodation or a studio.
The house is built of split face concrete block and sits on cement foundations. It has wide verandas surrounding the entire house and the corrugated iron roof with its bullnose veranda roofing makes this a very attractive dwelling with simple lines. Lawns and landscaped gardens including mature frangipanis, a lavender and rosemary garden, together with a vegetable garden overlook the pasture lands and dam of the property and then onto the fields and mountains in the background.
The open plan living, dining and kitchen areas have tiled floors and the 4 bedrooms are carpeted. The main bedroom has its own private bathroom and toilet and the second bathroom is for the use of the other 3 bedrooms. There is another separate toilet, an office, a large walk in linen “pantry” and a spacious laundry leading outside to the drying courtyard.
Other features of this property include the living area’s slow combustion wood heater, plenty of water in the tanks which is gravity fed to the house by a permanent spring fed dam, the garden’s timed, irrigation system, the natural light throughout the house and the barbecue and entertaining areas on the bricked courtyard and veranda.
This is a perfect property for a family. It is close to local schools and facilities, and only 20 minutes to schools in Coffs, the university, good hospitals – and a jet airport only 55 minutes from Sydney or Brisbane!
A property this size is becoming rarer and harder to find in this area.
