This beautiful 1930’s heritage home offers 3 large bedrooms, as well as a self contained studio, living room, open plan dining/kitchen and new bathroom. Set on 923 m² in one of Bellingen’s finest streets just 650m from the centre of town, it enjoys mountain views, cool summer breezes and adjoins one of Bellingen’s best hidden parks – a dream come true for kids of all ages. There’s covered verandahs, hardwood timber floors, high ceilings and lots of original features including rare cedar frogs.

Heritage Home

Briner St is home to some of the most attractive heritage homes in Bellingen with its elevated position making it even more attractive in terms of views and breezes. This house is a classic and from the moment you pull up and see the house over the picket fence there’s a sense of delightful anticipation about what you will find inside.

Typically, the formal front door brings you into a central hallway with 3 bedrooms and living room coming off the hallway before it opens up into the open plan dining/kitchen and new covered deck.

The bedrooms are all generous in size (B1 – 5 x 3.6m, B2 – 3.6 x 3.6 m, B3 – 3.6 x 3.6) and all have timber floors (under carpet) and high ceilings (of course) with French doors in bedroom 2 and reverse cycle split system air conditioning in the main bedroom.

The living room (5 x 4.5 m) enjoys bifold picture windows, French doors to the open plan dining/kitchen area, reverse cycle split system air-conditioning and a slow combustion log burner built into the lovely old fireplace with ornate timberwork and mantelpiece.

The kitchen/dining area has 2 sets of bifold French doors to the covered verandah and lovely big glass sliders to the new covered deck as well as an open fireplace and more delightful high ceilings and timber floors. The kitchen itself is fairly basic with single sink and average counter and cupboard space but with a lovely feel and a new Bosch electric oven and gas cooktop as well as grit and chlorine filters fitted to the town water supply.

Fully renovated bathroom

The new bathroom is your own personal lap of luxury with lots of space, marble look tiles, huge bath, separate shower and screened timber louvres with plenty of natural light and ‘mod cons’.

The self contained studio (4 x 6 m) is a great escape space or additional bedroom complete with sink, cupboards and drawers and external as well as internal access. The laundry is spacious and provides an additional shower and toilet as well as easy access to the mostly flat yard.

Outside is delightful, whether you’re relaxing on the covered deck admiring the mountain views and enjoying cool summer breezes or pottering in the garden which abounds in lovely old camellias as well as azaleas, magnolia, gardenia, morraya and dwarf tibouchina. The veggie garden is a great asset, as is the amazing park that adjoins the backyard and creates a magnificent extension to the kids play area as well as a guarantee of ‘no neighbors’ behind you. One of Bellingen’s best kept secrets, this park is generally only accessed by adjoining properties but fully maintained by council.

From the street

Ultimately this is a stately and graceful home with some modern touches added in one of Bellingen’s best locations. There’s a palpable sense of space both inside and out and its just 650m from the centre of town. A fantastic family home, particularly with the bonus park adjoining but not too big to be comfortable for a couple or single. If you’ve been waiting for ‘the right one’ to come up then you’d better have a look at this one.
