1239 Bruxner Highway

Take a step back in time to 1887, when this schoolhouse was in full swing, with plenty of memorabilia to go with it and sitting on 4 acres (1.62 ha) of land which has 2 lots. The final school bell rang in 1976, with the honour roll and war memorial relocated to the McKees Hill hall. This property has 4 large pine trees, planted after both world wars and other significant conflicts. The schoolhouse was transformed into a residency by its current owner of 13 years, seeking council approval to bring it up to code. It features beautiful, polished hardwood timber flooring throughout the entire building, they also added an internal bathroom with shower, toilet and vanity along with a galley type kitchen which has a gas cooktop and built-in oven. With no other internal walls, the living space also accommodates a sleeping area which once was originally the stage for the school. It still has exposed beam ceilings and some windows have been replaced with a more modern louvre system. There is also a gas heater which will stay with the property. The property has 2 x 5000 gal water tanks for storage, solar hot water system and a more recent addition is a 2 bay lock-up garage with cement floor and power connected. An old brick incinerator is still standing and remains of the old toilets from the school days. The old headmaster accommodation burnt down many, many years ago and a cement pad remains - this would give someone the option to either relocate a buy back house (STCA) or to have a tiny home or relocatable. The block is flood free and has a large flat area around the house and then a gradual descent to the northern boundary. Most of the top part is fenced and cleaning up the remainder of the land would give you full use of the 4 acres. Located within 10 minutes drive back to Lismore or 12 minutes to Casino.
