484 Summervilles Road, Thora

This magnificent 45 acre property is just 18 Km (20 min drive) from Bellingen with approx 250m of frontage to the Bellinger River as well as a pristine creek running out of the mountains and forest through the property. The historic weatherboard farmhouse offers 3 bedrooms, polished timber floors, high ceilings and bullnose verandahs while the old dairy has been renovated and converted into a lovely studio. There are lots more sheds, covered entertainment area, and chook shed along with gorgeous gardens and approximately 15-20 acres of cleared land and 25-30 acres of forest.

Historic Home and outside entertainment area

This property is beautifully private from the road and it’s not until you drive into the circular driveway that you get a taste of what is really here. The bullnose verandahs immediately take you back to a bygone era while modern renovations like the large timber and glass doors bring the outside in, in a way that the original house wouldn’t have done.

Traditional... ...and renovated

The living/dining area offers plenty of space (approx 6 x 5m) and with the slow combustion fire glowing it’s a very cozy space in winter. The kitchen has been opened up to the living/ dining through a large serving window and offers recently refinished timber bench tops, plenty of cupboard space, dishwasher and double sink with delightful garden views.

Kitchen Airy bedroom

All 3 bedrooms are generous in size (each approx 4 x 4m) with polished timber floors, high ceilings, peaceful views and direct access to the bullnose verandahs. The bathroom offers a separate bath and shower, with timber vanity and dual flush toilet with the ‘laundry in a cupboard’ as an added surprise. The bathroom adjoins a utility room with polished timber floors that leads to the kitchen and the living/dining area, as well as providing direct access to the paved back patio.

The converted dairy... ...studio

The converted dairy/ studio is a lovely space with lots of light and plenty of space divided into 3 separate areas to do with as you choose. Of course there’s power and lights here with concrete floors and timber walls, windows and doors as well as 2 lovely lead light feature windows.

The studio has a terrific view of the mountains Studio
   

The shed has 2 bays – 1 open – 1 closed – together with an adjoining carport/ tractor port. There is a separate power box and phone line here too and plenty of space to ‘do your stuff’. The separate covered entertainment area currently houses an extra long dining table with delightful views of the gardens and beyond and as you leave this area and go past the lean to shed and through the citrus orchard you’ll find your way to the magnificent tallowwood stump of the tree that the house was built from and the spacious chook sheds.

View through outside entertainment area to gardens Beautiful mountain views

Outside, as already mentioned, the gardens are just gorgeous, having been crafted by two keen horticulturalist nurserymen, it’s truly a fairy tale like space, particularly when the peacocks parade through on their way to bed. The garden is a delightful mix of natives and tropical’s including palms, frangipani, camellias, azaleas, moraya, red cedar, native orchids and lots more.

View from the hill (studio and house can just be seen)  

The frontage to the Bellinger River is simply magnificent with lots of swimming and fishing holes to choose from plus a quite deep hole at the end of the pristine creek that runs through the property. The cleared land includes both flat and undulating land, all of which is fertile and suited to many agricultural pursuits while the balance of forested land is a delightful escape for walking, horse riding or just relaxing and marvelling at all the amazing bird and wildlife
