	This cute 1950's cottage has been beautifully renovated inside and is set on 716 sq m of lusciously landscaped native gardens, across the road from the primary school and just 500m from the Bellingen CBD. Offering 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, polished timber floors, renovated kitchen, high ceilings, covered verandah and patio, and lock up timber workshop/shed this is a rare opportunity in one of Bellingens most popular streets.

If you're looking for something with character and privacy, close to schools and shops, then you would be well advised to inspect this property. It's a classic 50's fibro cottage, literally across the road from Bellingen Public School, 200m from the Bellingen Bowling and Sporting Club and just 650m from the heart of Bellingen with its creative café culture and bourgeoning boutique businesses. As soon as you walk into this home it sort of makes you smile as it takes you back to a bygone era with polished timber floors, frosted glass, French doors, and high ceilings. There are 2 large bedrooms to the left of the living area as you enter, either side of the renovated bathroom with shower, toilet and timber vanity. One bedroom has a built in wardrobe and the other opens onto its own private verandah overlooking the landscaped gardens.

The living room opens onto an enclosed verandah that now serves as a dining room/office/music room and also overlooks the luscious native gardens. There's a slow combustion log burner for those cold winter nights and the kitchen has been recently renovated and provides reasonable bench space, double sink, plenty of drawers, cupboards, and a small pantry as well as a Smeg (brand) 4 burner gas cook top and an Ilve (brand) electric oven.

The 3rd bedroom/study looks through a timber, double hung sash window to the covered verandah and gardens beyond, while the 2nd bathroom with bath, toilet and hand basin is adjacent and adjoining the laundry. The polished timber floors have all been 'done' in recent years and extend throughout the whole house providing a warmth and character all of their own.

Outside it's an absolute delight - if you are into Australian native gardens and Australian native birds then you will just love these lusciously landscaped native gardens. As a centerpiece there is a simply huge macadamias tree that is a prolific producer of nuts, and there's lots of grevilleas, tree ferns, bottle brush and more, as well as lemon, lime, orange and mandarin trees. This garden is an absolute delight to be in or to look at, and provides a setting that is completely private, with the fully mulched grounds offering little paths leading to private nooks and crannies all over the place.

Another fantastic recent addition is the covered patio area, adjoining the covered verandah out the back, looking over the gardens and just perfect for a cool drink on those hot summer days. Then to finish it off there's an old original timber workshop/shed that's well away from the house and provides valuable storage space both inside and underneath.
