Homestead
Approaching its centenary anniversary, 'Bellamy' retains all of its original character laden charm. From the glazed bricks and huge pillars on the front veranda, through to the 3 metre high ceilings with ornate cornicing and ceiling roses, this home will not disappoint those seeking a classic country homestead.
French doors, leading from the formal lounge room with glazed brick open fireplace and adjacent formal dining room, open to the front verandah and formal garden with ornate slate stone paths and standard roses.
Polished floorboards in the wide hallways lead to the generously sized 4 bedrooms, and bathroom. The 4th bedroom, with combustion heater installed into the original glazed brick fireplace with overhead mantle, makes for a stunning option for a library or study.
The classic country kitchen of generous proportions incorporates solid timber cabinetry and modern facilities. The magnificent classic wood stove in working order is perfect to light up on a cold winter's day to cook your roast or simmer your homemade pot of soup.
The extension to the rear of the home is the perfect addition. The generously sized family and meals area with its large picture windows enables uninterrupted views over your picturesque land and your own private river oasis. A reverse cycle split system and combustion heater provide year round comfort.
Improvements

This character building, with its solid stone walls, rendered interior, pitched internal roof with original beams, large picture windows, own power and reverse cycle air conditioning is perfectly suited to a studio, home office, 5th bedroom or entertainment room.
