This spacious and immaculately finished timber home features high ceilings, polished hardwood floors throughout, and large expanses of glass offering unimpeded views into the surrounding Eucalypt forest. The property is situated on a community in the scenic and biologically diverse foothills of the Border Ranges in northeast NSW. The exclusively-owned 5 acre share is peaceful and secluded with no near neighbours and your own private swimming holes in the beautiful Websters Creek.
With open plan lounge, kitchen, and dining, three bedrooms plus a loft, and two covered verandahs this large home offers the best in eco-friendly living in a beautiful bush setting. The vibrant colour scheme throughout is created with newly painted low-VOC paints, and the recently polished 6-inch floorboards are finished with natural, non-toxic oils. The 800W stand alone solar power system is supported by a 3.5kVa Gentech back up generator and Woods charger. Two 5,000 gallon rainwater tanks are set up with 12V pumps to service the house and gardens, with a petrol pump option to draw water from the creek if required.
Long camphor slab benches, lots of cupboard space, a generous sink area and gas stove and fridge grace the kitchen whilst the sumptuous bathroom is slate lined with a claw foot bath. The master bedroom is fully glassed on two sides with 4 glass doors opening out to the north and east allowing morning sunlight and melodic birdsong to flood the room. One half of the the double zincalume garage has been fully lined, carpeted and fitted with double glass doors to create a studio/office/teenager retreat away from the house with views to the creek.
The house sits atop a sandstone cliff overlooking the permanently flowing rainforest-lined Websters Creek, with several deep and refreshingly cool swimming holes just minutes from the house. The 5 acre share is covered in mature Eucalypt forest with the house surrounded by an acre of landscaped gardens complete with fruit trees, sub-tropical plants and fully fenced vegetable gardens with tool shed and lean-to for wood storage.
With platypus and turtles living in the creek, the forest is also home to abundant wildlife- including goannas, koalas, frogs, bandicoots, swamp and red-necked wallabies, and a wide variety of birds.
