This is truly rare real estate! It has been many many years since a 500 acre parcel of prime Promised Land acres has been offered. This property comes with the original farm house, since renovated, with four bedrooms, study, bathroom, living, dining, kitchen and gorgeous gardens. The second home is a unique 1970's design which features high ceiling (4 m), two bedrooms, two bathrooms, two living areas, dining, kitchen and amazing views. Plus there are stables, sheds, Olympic size dressage arena, two cattle yards, reliable fences, airstrip, hangar and three creeks, all bordering on heritage listed National Park …. storybook stuff, just 10 minutes drive from Bellingen.

The land here is split approximately 50/50 between prime cleared country and tastefully timbered country which hasn’t been logged (except for use on property) for over 40 years, so that needless to say it provides a rare resource.  The cleared country is all good quality land with a reliable fence, gate and lane system providing easy movement for stock.  There are two sets of cattle yards, machinery shed and many other sheds, stables, tack room, an Olympic size dressage arena and beautiful crystal clear water virtually everywhere, thanks to the three creeks, including Sweetwater Creek and Stoney Gully Creek. If you’re into flying there is a purpose built airstrip and small hanger designed to accommodate a small glider and ideal for ultralites as well. 

Get your popcorn ready: its a six minute video that just scratches the surface of what this property offers.

The original farmhouse is a classic weatherboard/fibro mix that offers three bedrooms, study, living, dining, breakfast/utility room and kitchen.  As you step across the covered verandah and on to the polished Tallowood floors you can’t help but be taken back in time, at least a little bit.  As with many of these old homes some of the verandahs have been enclosed to provide additional rooms, in this case the study, third bedroom and kitchen.  Bedroom one (as it now is) enjoys its own open fireplace and you’ll find those lovely Tallowood floors throughout.

The laundry is separate to the main house (as they always used to be) and it is probably 4-5 times the size of your average laundry today.  The separate guest room is also a great bonus, complete with its own covered verandah, close enough to easily access the house facilities, but far enough away to be nice and private.

Now discover the gorgeous gardens, and surrounding grounds, complete with veggie garden, assorted citrus, Blueberries, Peach, Macadamia, Grapes, Kiwifruit, Brazilian Cherry, Apple, Guava, Lychee, Mango and Avocado.  There are herb gardens, cottage flower garden, Murraya, camellia and brunsfelcia (yesterday, today, tomorrow) hedges, mulberries, roses and many more natives and exotics, with a feature fish pond and master built, luxury chook shed.

Now continue another 400m along the well formed and graveled driveway to the top of the hill and the site for the second home.  The views from here are simply spectacular, with the house snuggled into the lee of mountains and overlooking grazing land, rolling hills, a massive dam/lake and tree lined creeks, to more mountains in the distance.

"Snuggled into the lee of the mountains..."

Park in the circular driveway and enter this unique brick and timber 1970’s designer home with its feature (4m) ceilings, and leadlight windows and, speaking of windows, there are lots and lots of them to take full advantage of the light and the views.  This home offers two bedrooms, two bathrooms and two living areas as well as timber kitchen and luxuriously large laundry.  The covered verandahs afford maximum enjoyment of views, sun and breezes all year round and if you’re a wine buff the expansive cellar under the house will absolutely make your day.

The kitchen offers reasonable bench space, single sink, gas cooktop, and oven and magnificent views.  The “guest wing” is where you will find the bathroom with shower and vanity and the separate dual flush toilet adjacent.  The master bedroom enjoys an en suite bathroom as well as a private dressing room, definitely having the luxury of space offering separate shower and bath, vanity, dual flush toilet and more of those magnificent views.

From here there is easy access to the timbered acres where you can ride or walk for hours and hours through your very own 250 acre rainforest and know that you’re definitely doing “your bit” for carbon credit locally and globally.

Of course the three creeks and four spring fed dams are another huge asset for this property, offering pristine, crystal clear water all year round straight out of the National Park.  In fact both houses on this property enjoy gravity fed crystal clear water through a filter system and straight to the taps.  Both houses are also wired up for generators in times of extended power loss and both have solar hot water systems installed.
