Properties in this area do not come on the market very often, especially of this standard, there is nothing like this anywhere on the Mid-North Coast. This without doubt is one of the most pristine and beautiful properties in the region. The main house has a beautiful Sandstone facade, both homes are extensively renovated throughout, and the grounds and landscape are extensively developed. We are offering two newly renovated fully self-contained houses (main house 3 bedrooms) on a magnificent well maintained river frontage 32.5 acre property. The second house (2 bedrooms) was used as an extra income stream for rental and holiday farm-stay letting. Ideal also for family, parents or friends. It is currently owned by an artist and his partner as a studio, gallery and wildlife sanctuary. The second house is used for family, friends. It was once listed with Airbnb and Stayz which proved extremely popular (formerly5-star rated SuperHost), but has many more possibilities for other income streams such as permanent rental, farm stay etc. You can easily gain other income from sheep or cattle (Alpacas are currently part of the family), We feel confident that the first to see this property will fall in love with it. The property boasts a beautiful large water lily-covered dam overlooking is a gazebo and pontoon. Several other smaller water holes and weirs abound. There is a large salt-water swimming pool which is used for the majority of the year. There are many magical grottoes throughout the rainforest areas and pastures, along with our own swimming hole on the Macleay River which is also great for canoeing and fishing. There is an abundance of wildlife including roos wallabies, bandicoots, echidnas etc along with a myriad of birdlife. Many come daily for a feed. Ducks, chickens and guinea fowl are also part of the clan proving an abundance of eggs. The house has solar panels, two huge rainwater tanks are enough to keep everyone with as much water as you would ever need. Two pumps service a watering system that surrounds the property. Both houses are clad either Sandstone, Western Red Cedar, timber panelling inside and out, fully insulated of exceptional construction quality and are fully air-conditioned (but rarely ever needed) as well a huge fireplace that is fantastic on that odd cold winters night. All living areas and bedrooms are huge and of above-average sizes, the main house has all large walk-in wardrobes. All rooms have exceptional views right through to the mountains and the main house has a huge wrap-around verandah again with magnificent views. The kitchen is very functional with all mod cons including gas and electric stove dishwasher and a big walk-in pantry. Downstairs is a large laundry and chilled wine cellar, several storage and garden sheds. There is also a massive 12 car steel farm shed. Sealed tarred road all the way (except the last 500mtrs which is still an excellent road), the property never floods, and access to Kempsey is also flood-free. No noisy neighbours nor any hoons screaming around on motorbikes, however, the birdlife can be noisy at times but amusingly so. There are 2 telephone land lines into the property which are not in use. Mobile reception and wifi with the 2 major carriers is excellent. We are more than happy to answer any inquiries outside of business hours and arrange property inspections on weekends or at any suitable time.
