This architect designed eco-friendly home sits privately on 10 restful riverfront acres overlooking the magical Bellinger River, just 7km from Bellingen. Upstairs has polished timber floors throughout and 5 bedrooms all opening onto the magnificent covered verandah, with 2 bathrooms, an amazing chef’s kitchen, and an opulent open plan living area with lots of light opening through the 10 leaf cedar bi-fold doors to the wide deck overlooking the river. Downstairs is a 6th bedroom, 3rd bathroom, kitchenette, and 2nd living/rumpus room, all opening to the lower level verandah.

As you enter this property the Bangalow palms along the edge of the gently curving driveway give a small hint of the delight that awaits you ahead. In absolute privacy the design of this beautiful home is both striking in its obvious quality & style and a little deceptive as it blends so perfectly into the surrounding landscape inviting you to discover for yourself the space within (approx 600sqm inc verandahs).

As you cross the front deck and enter this house your breath is quite literally taken away with the magnificent views and the luxury of natural light filling the space through lots of glass that brings the outside to you. The polished timber floors and slimline glass louvres are just the start as you take in the magnificence of your surroundings through the 10 leaf cedar bi-fold doors opening to the wide covered deck.

The central chef’s kitchen offers an amazing space featuring a 3m long, stone island bench, double St.George electric oven and gas cook top with central grilling plate, and a separate electric cooktop next to the double sink with imported designer tap.  There are loads of drawers and cupboards, a Miele dishwasher, delightful views and lots of light.

The living space has lovely high ceilings and polished timber floors with built-in bookshelves, reverse cycle split system air conditioning, slow combustion log burner, wall mounted plasma TV, and of course lots of natural light. The living space opens onto the wide covered deck through the cedar bifolds with views of the Bellinger River and mountains beyond, while the dining area is framed by a massive floor to ceiling window also enjoying the same river aspect.

The main bedroom is carpeted and set privately away from the living space and away from the other bedrooms.  It enjoys a delightful outlook to the rainforest through floor to ceiling glass and offers a large walk in robe and designer ensuite bathroom as well as cedar French doors to the covered verandah.

Bedrooms 2 & 3 are nested together with polished timber floors, built-in robes and cedar French doors to the adjoining verandah with bedroom 3 enjoying an idyllic view over the 12m pool to the rainforest beyond.  Bedrooms 4 & 5 are also nested together in another space with carpet on the floors built-in robes and big cedar and glass sliding doors onto the wide covered deck overlooking the river and the pool.  The main bathroom and separate toilet is adjacent to bedrooms 4 & 5 with bedroom 5 enjoying ensuite access to this bathroom.

Downstairs the warm glow of the polished rosewood floors is something very special with a handy 2nd living room/rumpus room/office enjoying reverse cycle split system air conditioning and once again lots of natural light with French doors onto the wide covered deck.  Adjoining this room is the 6th bedroom, also with polished rosewood floors, ensuite bathroom, kitchenette and cedar doors to the covered deck.

Outside the delights continue in this completely private natural rainforest setting complimented by low maintenance, well established rainforest garden landscaping around the house as well as terraced garden beds.  The 12m concrete pool with Himalayan sandstone coping and steps in a landscaped rainforest setting is an oasis within an oasis.  The irrigated orchard offers plum, macadamia, mango, hazelnut, lemon, grapefruit, mandarin and lime trees and any chooks lucky enough to live here enjoy their own “Taj Mahal” complete with concrete floor.  The double garage comes with remote control doors and there’s loads of space under the house for tractors, workshop and other machinery.

Now finally the ‘piece de resistance’……The truly amazing views of the Bellinger River and the magnificent mountain range combined with lush flat land running to the river and rolling river flats beyond provide the most amazing environment in which to live, with unsurpassed privacy and a fantastic swimming hole just for you.

So, an absolutely amazing, architect designed home set perfectly privately in rare rainforest cleverly camouflaging the extent of this large (approx 600sqm) 6 bedroom family home. Set on 10 riverfront acres fronting the Bellinger River just 7km from Bellingen in God’s own country complete with 12m pool and all the luxuries you would expect in a home of this calibre.
