This circa 1907 heritage home enjoys 17 fertile, flat, riverfront acres east of Bellingen. It is a classic of its era offering 3 bedrooms, 2 with ensuite bathrooms, and all with French doors onto verandahs.  Featuring pressed metal ceilings, oiled hardwood floors, leadlight windows, and a tasteful new kitchen it offers open plan living spilling onto hedge lined decks with expansive views and beautiful breezes.

As you enter this home you walk into the central living area which has been beautifully opened up and is approximately 5 x 8m, featuring leadlight windows and a unique set of five fold timber French doors that allow the living area to spill onto the hedge lined deck and do the most wonderful job of funnelling the almost ever present cool summer breeze through the whole house.  There’s town water connected and the new kitchen offers 5 burner gas cook top, electric oven, pantry, double sink and views to the mountains and the rivers edge.

The main bedroom is approx 4 x 5.5m, also with feature leadlight windows, a big built in robe, French doors that open to views of the mountains over the private deck and courtyard, and an ensuite bathroom with shower toilet and timber vanity.  The second bedroom is approx 3.5 x3.5m with a walk in robe, French doors that once again open to mountain views, private deck and courtyard, and an ensuite bathroom that includes a beautiful big old bath with overhead shower, dual flush toilet and timber vanity.  Bedroom three is approx 4 x 4m and is currently used as additional living area with its own French doors opening to another deck and views over fertile pasture.

Outside, the well established gardens attract much birdlife throughout the year, plus there’s a double carport, the essential character filled (no not falling down) original garage and a basic 4 bay stable/machinery shed with roof only.  The 17 acres are fantastically fertile and fully fenced with approximately 14 acres currently leased to the adjoining dairy farmer (providing a small income, together with maintenance of land and fences), while the remaining 3 acres provide the perfect ‘house yard & hobby farm’ with plenty of room for ‘lifestyle’ animals like chickens, goats, sheep, alpaca’s or whatever else your heart desires.  Put simply this land is suitable for almost anything that prefers flat country – horses, crops, livestock – you name it, and the riverfront offers a recreational feature not often found for fishing, swimming, canoeing, or boating with the ability to boat from here to the river mouth and onto the beautiful, big, blue ocean.

With over 100 years of history including Bellingen’s dairy farming heydays this property has that special something that you just can’t get in younger homes.  Set on some of the best quality land in our area just 4km east of Bellingen with well established gardens, lovely cool summer breezes, and delightful views to the mountains, this property may be the one for you !
