Escape the hustle and bustle with this countryside retreat, ideal for those seeking peace and tranquility.
Tucked away in Bellinger Valley is a property that can only be described as 'straight out of a fairy tale'. 'Rosevalley' was the original homestead in the Valley, and parts of it are over 130 years old. Much of the original home is solid Rosewood and the floors are Tallowwood. The extensions and renovations have been carried out to retain and compliment the bygone era. The house was fully renovated and substantially extended in 2010 including the installation of fully ducted reverse-cycle air-conditioning as well as a separate (additional) split system air-conditioning in the kitchen and studio. Rosevalley sits beautifully on approx. 6 acres with all the land being accessible. There is a spring-fed stream running through the property flowing into the Bellinger River that runs all year round from a mountain fed spring. This is invaluable for garden and irrigation purposes. The residence, serviced by sealed road from Waterfall Way, is made up of three buildings. The house has 4 bedrooms (or 3 and a study), 3 bathrooms and 2 distinct living areas. The master bedroom is large and has WIR and ensuite. There is a large studio at the rear of the house-garden which could be your music room, accommodate your guests or be the perfect teenage retreat. The large kitchen has a 900cm ILVE electric oven and gas cooker, and ASKO dishwasher. The breakfast nook takes the morning sun and is perfect to sit and read the newspaper or just enjoy the coffee! There are large verandahs and decks on three sides (including a very large deck off the main living room) and a covered patio onto the house-garden. The lawns and gardens are well established and contain many deciduous and exotic trees and plants. The house-garden is fully fenced (dog-proof) and you will not run out of water with 2 x 22,000 litre water tanks, plus reserve (gravity fed) tanks behind studio which flow to the kitchen if required. The current owners have installed a new septic system and all the roofing to all buildings was replaced in 2013 and gutter-guarded. To keep you and your family warm during the winter months there are two wood heater fireplaces, plus several years of split-log wood supply adjacent to the house. The house has hardwood floors throughout, an all-weather driveway and is only a 2 minute walk to the Rosewood River for a cooling swim in summer. For your vehicles there is a 2 car garage that was extended recently by the addition of a carport. It will house two cars, plus holds extensive garden equipment such as your ride-on mower and power tools. The orchard has been planted with apples, apricots, olives, figs, avocados, kaffir limes, oranges, lemons, cumquats, mandarins, grapefruits, mangos and there are Macadamia trees as well. All to keep you and your family bright and healthy. Last and not least is the permanent termite treatment and monitoring. The house, studio and garage are treated every 3 years (most recently 6 months ago) with full records, warranty and certifications available. Please ring Peter on 0413 111 621 to arrange an inspection at any time that suits and we suggest that you hurry for this one!
