Own the Magic of This Charmingly Renovated Residence ..... This captivating property is priced to sell! Situated in what is becoming known as Bellingen's very own Macquarie Street, is this delightful heritage listed Federation style weatherboard cottage. It is accessible. It is only a minute's walk to the main street of this fast growing community minded township. It is practical. It is zoned both residential and commercial and it can be utilised in so many different ways including home/office, professional suites or simply as a family home to enjoy every day of the year. It is quality. It has stood the test of time and enjoyed continued care over the years; it's a great canvas! Walk through the wrought iron gate, breathe in the perfume of a huge gardenia tree and take a couple of steps up to this beautifully crafted and full-of-character weatherboard cottage. It was built in the early 1900s. There are 3 bedrooms, plus an office or sunroom or library. The spacious living room is private and heated in the short winter months by an open fire or ducted air conditioning. The master bedroom has its own private bathroom with built-in wardrobing and the other bedrooms share a full bathroom and toilet. The French provincial-style kitchen, off the formal dining room, has white painted cupboards, cork flooring and a gas stove and electric oven. These rooms lead to the original wooden north-facing veranda that is half enclosed by wood and dimple glass windows, giving the magical effect of dining a la Oscar & Lucinda! A great space for al fresco entertaining, overlooking the lovely greenery and private backyard, and spending time with family and friends ..... The cottage's charm lies in its totally white interior, oiled wooden floors, wood and dimple glass windows, high ceilings, spacious rooms, the original wash house and garage, a small easy to maintain back lawn with surrounding gardens and a thoroughfare to the laneway behind Hyde Street (the main street in Bellingen). Add to this the wide, wide entrance hall, ceiling fans and ducted air conditioning throughout, carved wood defined "doorways" and picture rails. This is a practical base and a relaxing haven, a space to live or live and work; a space to move and a space to be ..... a beautiful showcase for all your treasures.
