45B Lawler Road, Terania Creek NSW 2480

Set in the beautiful hinterland area of the Terania Creek Valley is the most wonderful 88 acre property comprising about 2/3 rainforest and 1/3 open pasture land. The forested sections are truly inspiring with mature palm-filled rainforest leading to the spectacular fast-flowing, crystal clear and cascading creek complete with wide swimming holes and platypus hideaways. Whilst this long creek frontage is what most buyers want, the rarest and most desirable feature of all is the spectacular 80ft permanent waterfall on the land along with smaller waterfalls in years of higher rainfall. Is this painting an idyllic picture? That's because it IS idyllic!
And it's not just the land you'll fall in love with. There are two dwellings on the property; the main home is a delightful refurbished 3 bedroom, 1 bathroom, 2 toilets farmhouse which sits on an elevated plateau surrounded by a grassy knoll and dotted with mature flowering trees. The feature tree next to the home is a stunning large Pink Flowering Flamboyant Tree. The secondary dwelling is a converted Dairy Bales which is now a very spacious 2 bedroom 1 bathroom home set in a rainforest glade with tropical gardens. Each building has its own unique character, and both will delight with their tasteful renovations. Both are also on mains power.
The smaller of the two dwellings features the warmth of various timbers including hardwood floors, exposed beams, wide-board walls and pine-lined ceilings. It has been extended to include covered verandah areas which take in the valley views and maximise the living spaces. Located well away from the main dwelling, this well-appointed renovation has been kept deliberately rustic in nature, whilst containing every creature comfort for modern living, including solar hot water, wood heater and ceiling fans.
The main dwelling is finished in an eclectic mix of 'shabby-chic' design and crisp white palette, mixed with warm timber window trims and doors and original hardwood floors, and finished with pops of colour (even a dash of artistic work to delight the senses) in most rooms including a lovely stained-glass window. The lovely exterior, under a multi-hipped roofline, has three sides of deep covered verandahs for outdoor living – perfect to look out over the valley views to the surrounding mountains or just to soak up the sounds of the water below. Inside, the rooms feel connected to the outside through wide louvres and French doors, and the home's attention to detail for modern living give it a contemporary twist to an original farmhouse building without losing the feel of its heritage. Indeed it is a lovely mix of the old and the new! The trendy sage-green kitchen with wooden counters on a white backdrop and a gas stove is a delight, and the original hardwood floors complete the picture. The mod-cons are not forgotten, with an 18 panel 5 kw grid feed solar system as well as solar hot water, lovely light fittings, solar tubes and a velux skylight to maximise the light, ceiling fans and an 'alcoved' wood heater.
Vehicles and storage are taken care of with a 3-bay shed – one bay a LUG and 2 as carports or could easily fit tractors or Motorhomes. There are old tracks traversing the land for the avid bushwalker or nature-reserve lover, and access to your swimming holes can be via the entrance driveway or internal tracks. The open paddocks will support a few hooved animals for the hobby farmer, and the rich soils will grow any manner of sustainable crops or additions to the existing prolific established fruit trees.
This property with so much more to offer than your average large acreage is one to inspect – but be quick.
