Relocated to its current position, within the Ashby district, from Little Keen Street Lismore, just over 6 years ago, is a beautiful piece of Northern Rivers history. The old weather board home, with all its history and style, sits atop a one bedroom fully self-contained granny flat, giving you the opportunity for some passive income or a unit for extended family or friends. In the sought after Ashby district, this 1.5 ha property will not be on the market too long before someone falls in love with all its charm, character and history.
The upstairs is the original part of the home. It includes three bedrooms, all of a good size, 2 having built-ins and French doors opening onto the side verandah. There is also a beautifully restored bathroom with a free-standing claw foot bath as the main feature.
The kitchen is galley style, with a large Belling range, country style cabinetry, a servery window on to the Northern verandah and pressed metal splash backs. There is a large, walk-in butler's pantry, creating that extra space for storage and preparation of meals.
The lounge room is open plan to the kitchen dining area, air conditioned for year-round comfort and has French doors leading onto the Northern verandah.
The restoration has been sympathetic throughout the old home, keeping the original wall linings and floor boards as features, while not missing the opportunity to bring the 21st century into the property where needed.
To complete the house there is a fully self-contained, one bedroom unit downstairs. With its own bathroom and laundry, it's the complete package for extended family and friends or jump on the band wagon and rent it out through Air Bnb.
With plenty of rain water storage, garden sheds and fire protection assets already in place, you've got a property that's had the hard work completed.
It's not often that a house of this age is presented to the market with the level of finish that 1 Broadwater Road Ashby Heights has. If you're in the market for a property with a real story, this could be for you. With a vendor looking to meet the market, your chance to secure this property is real.
