Not only will you feel the instant impressiveness of this lovely property, but a personal tour will reveal that very few properties in this price bracket will offer you the comprehensive list of ‘goodies’ as on offer here. In real estate terms, that’s a big win!
As you meander down the long well-maintained driveway, you’ll be struck by the green spaces, the quiet ambience, the charm of the tall forested pockets, the amazing area views , and not least the lovely architecture of this home and its outbuildings at the end of the driveway. The property sits centrally in 5-acres of a 100+acre community which enjoys over 80 acres of common space. There are only 9 houses (11 share certificates), and being the last lot, your privacy is assured with no through-traffic.
The gorgeous home is built over gently sloping land to maximize your views over the property. These slopes are beautifully terraced and rock-landscaped, integrating food and ornamental gardens with stunning effect. The current owners’ passion for gardening, landscaping and sustainability is not just evident but elevates this property to a lifestyle property above the average. In fact, there are over 2 acres of indigenous forest-edge planting just on this share!
The buildings are packed with potential, from a main dwelling of three bedrooms & 1 bathroom to a large I bedroom studio with separate bathroom, to a smaller 1 bedroom studio attached to a large and multi-functional garage/workshop space.
There’s a sense of artistry about these builds. The main dwelling with attached carport space is primarily a sand/sawdust/cement and hardwood build with extensive use of cabinetry timbers around the kitchen area. There's a wide and welcoming front verandah and an equally welcoming entry space, and notably this dwelling has a delightful floor plan. The main kitchen and dining space have conventional 90-degree walls but with the additional dramatic (yet practical) effect of a large loft space above. The remaining rooms have subtly obtuse angles. These rooms – living, three bedrooms & bathroom - feature clever timber joinery and construction, especially evident in the floors and airy raked timber ceilings. Servicing all these living areas is a wide enclosed sunroom which takes in Northerly views over the beautiful forest. Whilst there is an earthy country aesthetic, mod-cons are not forgotten. The home has air conditioning, ceiling fans, extensive use of louvres to create a wonderful airflow throughout, underground mains power and underground dam water supply for gardens to save your tank water for drinking. Wifi, and NBN satellite are connected.
A few steps below the home is the large and private studio and remote utility room. This spacious build is a tad more rustic than the main dwelling but is well-constructed and well-appointed. Perfect as an artist's retreat or guest house, it would take very little effort to be upgraded.
A few more steps above the home is a very large and beautifully finished shed/workshop. Insulated, it has a large fully lined and serviced annex room which could be an extra living or 5th bedroom space. The 3 undercover patios complete this lovely multipurpose building.
The beauty, the seclusion and the potential are palpable here. Lillian Rock is renowned for its lush green topography, its cascading creeks, its tall rainforest timbers and its location within the rocky outcrops of the Border Ranges. It is also conveniently located 10 kms from the iconic Nimbin Village, and only 75 kms to the Gold Coast Airport or Gold Coast beaches.
