From the moment you arrive at 223 Riverbend Road, you are greeted with an overwhelming sense of warmth and tranquillity. Nestled amongst 31ha of Australian bushland, with access to the Orara River and a one-of-a-kind design, this property is truly unique in many ways.
It is evident upon arrival that the current owners have had great admiration for the property, with the home being loved for over 30 years. Many of the features of the home such as the exposed rafters, French doors, main centre poles and heavy timber doors add to the warm country cottage ambience. The home itself has also been crafted using Red Ironbark from the property. The kitchen is made up of two areas, with plenty of bench space to prepare and cook delicious meals. The old fuel stove makes for a lovely centrepiece for the smaller section of the kitchen, with some maintenance required to restore it to its former glory. The dining space is adjacent to this area and leads you out through the French doors onto the spacious north-facing verandah.
On ground level, you will also find the open plan living, that includes a wood fire to keep you cosy during the cooler months ahead, as well as 2 bedrooms both fit with built-in wardrobes. The neat and tidy bathroom is equipped with a bathtub, shower, toilet, vanity, linen press, and an exposed timber feature wall that adds to the rustic feel of the home.
Heading upstairs, you'll find the private and light filled main bedroom in the loft. This is the perfect space for parents needing their own haven and with the cool breezes that roam through the timber venetian blinds it makes it the ideal space to unwind at the days end.
Outside, the property leaves nothing to desire with a large 7x10m Colorbond shed with mezzanine floor, tandem carport, 4 dams, a garden shed, greenhouse and potting shed. The current owners have taken great pride in nurturing many different kinds of fruit trees such as blueberries, grapevines, elderberry, olive trees, citrus trees and more.
The property is rectangular in shape with approximately 5 acres of semi-clear area surrounding the home. Approximately 95% of the property is heavily timbered land and comes with a logging permit if this is something you desire.
The house is approximately 149m2 in size and offers a carport off the side, and is free from flooding.
If you love exploring nature and natural creek and river systems, the Beautiful Orara River is under approximately 300m walk from your front door, access is via the creek to the back end of the property. If the salty seas cater more to your taste, you can be swimming in Corindi Beach within 25 minutes.
Grafton CBD is approx. 25 minutes' drive and Coffs Harbour is a 45 minute drive south.
If your dream is to own a rural property with it all, whether you are looking for somewhere you can create a magnificent homestead or have the potential to flip this into a unique farm stay Airbnb, this could be just right for you.
