IF there’s one thing better than a great home, it’s a great home someone else pays for. This excellent family home at Goonellabah will tick both boxes if you want it to.
The home offers an elegant indoor space with rural views clear to the Nightcap Ranges while the backyard, which has a new fence, gives the kids plenty of space to run and play.
This is a property that will delight owner-occupiers and investors alike.
The two-storey house is divided so the downstairs section can be used as a large one bedroom unit.
Upstairs you have a three bedroom home that has been made into a space of tasteful comfort.
The home’s natural timber flooring has been uncovered and brought to a high shine in the open plan kitchen/dining space and the hallways. The dining space flows onto the home’s back deck, with its views, on one side and, on the other, the carpeted upstairs lounge.
The kitchen is a marvel, and at 4.3 x 3.65 metres, is much bigger than you might expect. An abundance of cupboard and bench space along with the new stainless steel electric oven and under-bench dishwasher will make this space a pleasure to work in.
The three bedrooms are generously-sized and one enjoys the same beautiful rural views you get from the dining and kitchen spaces and the deck.
Downstairs is a large living space leading onto the back patio, which has the same views to be found upstairs. There is a kitchen, shower and toilet along with the home’s laundry. The downstairs bedroom is the biggest in the house, while a second room offers a study/home office or, at a pinch, a second downstairs bedroom.
This is an area that could easily be rented out, potentially slashing your mortgage repayments. Alternatively, it would be excellent for teenage children who want their own space, as guest accommodation for visiting friends or relatives, or simply as an extra living space.
The home is fitted for comfort upstairs and down, with insulation helping to keep the temperature under control on both storeys. Air-conditioning in the upstairs and downstairs lounges will help keep the summer heat at bay, even as the solar hot water system helps keep the electricity bills sane.
It’s an affordable home your family will love.
