Pull up a chair under the entertaining gazebo and drink in the panoramic mountain and Bellinger River views from this tranquil Repton acreage, which feels a world away from town but is only 10 minutes in the car from a major shopping centre at Toormina or 15 minutes to the regional airport at Coffs Harbour.
Located on a hidden knoll with sweeping valley views across to the mountains in the distance, the owners have enjoyed watching everything from golden sunsets to storms and rainbows from this beautiful property, which has easy driveway access, a gigantic 18m x 6m shed for garaging and tools, a separate car/van/boat parking platform and a wide timber deck to enjoy those stellar vistas.
Contemporary gardens with splashes of colour complement the classically-styled three bedroom home, which has a formal second living area with generous ceiling height and high windows. Convert this to a fourth bedroom wing if required or simply enjoy as is, with ample room for the kids to watch TV in one lounge area while you read in the other.
All three bedrooms are a good size, with one enjoying the country views out over the deck and the master with a great sized ensuite and a sliding door to the deck beyond. The main bathroom is generously-proportioned (yes there's a bath) and the kitchen is centrally located to service both living areas. With a walk in pantry, gas cook top, electric oven, open fridge space and dishwasher, you can cook up a storm and then send platters out to the entertaining pavilion and gazebo overlooking the grounds and the valley.
Wallabies and king parrots have been frequently seen on the property, while koalas are occasionally spied below. If you're loathe to spend your weekends on a ride on mower think again, most of this three acre property has been left as a bush block, with the remaining grounds taking about an hour with a hand mower (or less on a ride on). Poinsettia, Golden Trumpet, Irises, Cordylines and Frangipani are among the established plantings which provide splashes of colour, while the lemon, orange and lemonade shrubs are currently laden with fruit. There is nothing to plant here, except for your favourite herbs in the two sets of planter boxes.
Keep all the plants happy by watering from the on site bore, which the owners advise has been tested to potable drinking standards. Town water is also connected and there's a bin service to the area - enjoy the beauty of a rural location with most of the services of town.
It's approximately 10 minutes in the car from here to Boambee East and Toormina, it's 20 minutes drive to Coffs Harbour and the local beach at Tuckers Rock is just a few minutes drive away. Take your boat from its parking platform down the hill and launch in the Bellinger River for a day's fishing or water skiing or enjoy a freshly-made local coffee, order a burger at the café or perhaps a Chinese meal down the road at Mylestom. Urunga, with its well known pub and boardwalk is also an easy drive away or head over to Bellingen for the local markets, boutiques or restaurants.
The owners have considered their home a centrally-located 'hamlet' and over the past 12 years they've established the gardens, extended the shed, added a second living area and extended the deck, now it's time for them to downsize and for another family to make the property home. Don't miss the opportunity if you're seeking this style of tranquil lifestyle.
