Prime position

Northcote Street is one of Bellingen’s most sought after streets with many historic homes having now been renovated and restored including George Moore’s own home (the famous architect & builder responsible for Bellingen Courthouse and The Hammond & Wheatley Emporium.

This property was fully renovated in 2004/5 with further improvements and additions made in the last 18 months by the current owners. So in the last 6 years the property has been re-wired, re-stumped, re-plumbed, fully insulated and extended with no expense spared. There’s now a comfortable, covered rear deck, ‘Crim Safe’ screens on most doors and windows, dimmer switches on all the lights, ceiling fans, European shower head, window awnings, Austar connection, and wait for it…. soft close toilet lid!

As you arrive at this house you are greeted with a classic china-pink hedge, picket gate, cottage gardens, and iconic bullnose verandahs, which immediately take you back to a bygone era. Typically, as you cross the covered verandah and pass through the front door you are greeted with polished timber floors and a bedroom on either side of the hallway. Continuing down the hall we find the spacious bathroom, lots of storage cupboards and another bedroom before we emerge into the new extension bathed in natural light, lots of space, high ceilings and magnificent mountain views.

The bedrooms are all good sizes – B1 is approx 5.5 x 3m with polished timber floors, built in robes, & French doors to the verandah, B2 is approx 5.5 x 3m with polished timber floors, built in robes, & reverse cycle, split system air conditioner, while B3 is approx 3.5 x 3.5m with polished timber floors and French doors to the verandah. The bathroom offers plenty of space with a classic claw foot bath, separate shower, timber vanity and mirror & dual flush toilet. There’s plenty of space in the laundry with even more storage and a separate second toilet.

The northern extension provides lots of space with high ceilings& polished timber floors throughout the kitchen, dining and living areas. The kitchen offers loads of bench space, cupboards and drawers, together with double sink, 6-burner gas cook top, extra large electric stove and topped off with magnificent mountain views. The open plan living/dining area also enjoys those magnificent views and spills onto the covered back deck through super big glass sliders that do an amazing job of bringing the outside in.
