This classic 40’s/50’s fibro cottage set on an elevated 620 sq m block is in one of Bellingen’s best locations with mountain views and cool summer breezes & within easy walk of everything that Bellingen has to offer. Recent renovations have provided a new kitchen & bathroom, bi-fold doors to covered patio, air-conditioning to office/study, and more to compliment the polished timber floors & high ceilings not often seen these days. Offering 3 bedroom plus office/study, open plan living/kitchen/dining and fully fenced backyard with rear lane access and off-street parking, this property will appeal to many.
Located just 650m from the heart of Bellingen this property is within easy walk of shops, cafes, clubs, tennis courts, swimming pool, schools, playing fields and more. One of the great things about this location is that you can choose to leave the car at home and walk to everything you need and with the rear lane access there’s plenty of room to park 2 cars plus a boat or trailer.
