The entry to “Eluem” – meaning “I am home” – says it all. The long sunny driveway gives a wonderful introduction to this spacious timber residence built on 163 acres of Dorrigo high country. A stunning vista of prime pasture land, some of it tree-ed, opens up under huge skies. There are 4 spring fed dams.

The land carries 100 head of cattle generally, and it easily takes 80 head of breeders. It is currently agisted. Recently the owner has spent considerable money on weed control/pasture improvement by having the total property cleared of Blackberry, Tobacco bush etc. Hence, the pasture quality/yield from the property will only improve.

Enter this family residence of timber, iron and deluxe polished timber floors, from the informal decks, leading you to where you hang your hat and kick off the gum boots. The very large country style kitchen is surrounded by plenty of cupboards and large windows give an exciting inside/outside feel. The large Stanley cast iron wood fire stove and oven is also used for heating water throughout the house. There is also a gas stove with and electric oven to use during the summer months, if you prefer. There is plenty of bench space and “prep” areas and the fabulous walk-in pantry will house and hide everything you wish it to!

Walk through to the relaxing lounge room and be mesmerized by the extraordinary views from every window and the full length western red cedar bi-fold doors that open easily on to the entertainment deck. Take another breath and enjoy the space this area offers ….. The lounge also hosts a wood fire box for cosy comfort through the cooler days. 4 Large bedrooms and a further room used as an office, gives all the family private space and these rooms are separated by a long hallway.

There are large, mirrored double wardrobes in two of the bedrooms. The master bedroom has walk-in wardrobes and a full en suite with a tiled floor as well as IXL fan and light heaters.
