399 Summervilles Road

Set across 40 acres of pristine riverfront land, this exceptional estate captures the essence of refined country living where architectural presence, natural beauty, and timeless craftsmanship combine to create a property of remarkable distinction. From the moment you arrive, there is a sense of arrival that is difficult to replicate. The home's commanding, almost castle-like presence sits harmoniously within its landscape, framed by established trees, manicured grounds, and sweeping north-easterly views stretching toward the Gondwanaland rainforest mountains. A Residence of Substance and Enduring Quality Master-built in solid double brick construction, the residence has been thoughtfully enhanced through extensive premium renovations, ensuring both structural integrity and modern comfort. Inside, generous proportions and carefully considered design create a home that is both impressive and welcoming. High ceilings, quality materials, and a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living spaces reflect a commitment to craftsmanship rarely found in contemporary builds. Designed for Living, Entertaining and Retreat The home offers five spacious bedrooms, each appointed with built-in wardrobes, French red cedar doors and windows, and direct access to private balconies creating individual retreats that embrace the surrounding landscape. A flexible floorplan provides excellent separation of space, with one bedroom located on the lower level and four positioned upstairs. The master suite is a true sanctuary, featuring a private ensuite, walk-in dressing area, and an expansive entertainment zone. A spa bath opening onto the verandah invites a connection with the outdoors, elevating everyday living into something far more indulgent. An additional attic room provides valuable flexibility, ideal as guest accommodation, a home office, or creative studio. Living Spaces Framed by Nature At the heart of the home, the open-plan living and dining area is designed to capture the extraordinary outlook, with bay windows framing uninterrupted mountain views. Fully tiled floors ensure easy-care living, while red cedar-lined ceilings add warmth, texture, and timeless character. Whether hosting guests or enjoying quiet evenings, this space remains connected to the landscape at every moment. A Productive and Self-Sufficient Estate Beyond the residence, the land itself offers both beauty and functionality. Rich alluvial soils support established citrus orchards, pecan and macadamia trees, along with mango and avocado plantings providing a strong foundation for sustainable living or boutique agricultural pursuits. A fully integrated irrigation system, supported by river access and a private dam, ensures reliable water supply across the property, while a greenhouse allows for year-round cultivation and true farm-to-table living. Direct access to the Bellinger River provides deep, clear waterholes ideal for swimming, kayaking, and fishing, further enhancing the lifestyle on offer.
