Steeped in history, this gorgeous home has been a part of the Nimbin Village since its early farming days. Formerly the top floor of the hospital, located at the Northern end of Cullen St, it was then shifted to the hill at the top of the now Tareeda Way, where it became the Rose family farmhouse for many decades. When the Nimbin Eco Village was developed, it was positioned in its current location and became the first home in the development. A humble old dame, she has been renovated, maintaining her original charm whilst benefitting from modern comforts along the way. High ceilings, hardwood lining boards, polished floorboards, original French doors and casement windows, remind us of the days when quality and longevity were foremost in building and design.
You enter the home via a beautiful South facing porch, which doubles as the perfect place for cooling off in the summer months, into the living room, where a combustion heater gives warmth and ambience in Winter. The original hallway has been removed creating a spacious lounge from which 2 bedrooms are accessed. Original French doors open onto the front porch, great for airflow as well as aesthetics and a reverse cycle air-conditioner moderates temperature all year round.
From there you enter the dining room. A large and bright space, enjoying light from the North and West, with a servery to the kitchen. One bedroom opens onto this room.
The kitchen runs along the Northern end of the home. It overlooks the garden and beyond to views of Blue Knob and the Border Ranges through antique casement windows. The Northerly Winter sunshine pours into this room lighting up and warming a good deal of the home. A covered back verandah/deck extends from the kitchen for enjoying all year round.
The laundry is at the Eastern end of the kitchen and from there you enter the bathroom. The bathroom has a shower over the bath and a flush toilet and vanity.
The home has 3 bedrooms, all larger than usual size. The rooms are carpeted and I am sure that beneath the carpet, the floorboards continue through. The bedrooms run along the Eastern side of the home capturing the morning sunlight and opening onto the living rooms. The middle bedroom has air-conditioning.
Walking distance to town and on the way, you will witness the spectacular views of the unique ranges surrounding Nimbin. Nimbin’s free pool, the Bowling Club and skate park between you and town will cater for the recreational needs of all ages. Then up to town where you will find all you could need to satiate your appetite. Great food, cafes, art, community, clothing and markets. And not a franchise amongst it!
This is a gorgeous and conveniently located home in one of NSW’s most unique and picturesque villages. Close to schools, hospital medical centre and transport. Come and feel yourself unwind as you experience the serenity of country living.
