Tucked away in a quiet and leafy pocket of Fernmount with mountain and bushland views, is this delightful five bedroom mud-brick home set on five acres. Bellingen and surrounds offer so many truly unique and outstanding places to call home and this one is well worth the inspection.

The position of this property is exceptional. The northerly aspect is perfect for capturing the warming winter sun and summer’s sea-breezes while the home welcomes you and your family into the inviting open plan living space that features soaring raked ceilings and exposed timber beams.

A wood fired heater keeps you and the family cosy in the cooler months, then in summer throw open the French doors that surround the living space to provide a seamless flow of cooler sea breezes that wrap around the verandah. The lustrous granite kitchen with a large island bench is only months old and incorporates quality stainless steel appliances, including a flash Italian style upright gas cooker.

Away from the living area are the bedrooms. There are four bedrooms and the family bathroom situated in the centre of the home. All the bedrooms are of good size and are separate from the parents’ bedroom. The master suite is both private and away from the main bedrooms for the segregation when required. The master suite includes a built-in wardrobe and en-suite with waterfall shower.

The room opens up via two sets of sliding doors which allow the mountain and bushland views to be a stunning backdrop. A private timber deck flows from the room; a perfect spot to enjoy a morning coffee. The master suite also overlooks the saltwater swimming pool so you can keep an eye on the kids while have a break in your own space.

There is a large flat grassed area which can easily handle whatever the kids require, let them roam in your own pocket of bushland or build a fantastic vegetable garden and orchard and feed the family from your own organic gardens. Then of course there is the summer playground – the inground salt water pool.

The property also includes a four-bay shed with workshop and plenty of space for cars, caravans or boats, a 3kw solar power system, solar hot water and 110,000 litre rainwater tanks.

While beautifully secluded, you can get to Bellingen is under ten minutes and Coffs Harbour in around 25 minutes.

The current owners are keen to sell and may be a little negotiable on their asking price.

However I did say only a “little”!

Please call Peter to arrange an inspection at any time that might suit you.
