They really don't make them like this anymore! And they certainly don't come on the market very often.
An early 1900's timber home in almost entirely original and well maintained condition with 8000m2 of land??&Ac irc;???..set on top of the hill with stunning views, yet only a few minutes walk from the iconic village of Nimbin.
The house is situated on a level block of 1800m2 and consists of a 3 bedroom timber home with 12ft ceilings, polished timber floors, fretwork and lining boards throughout.
There is enormous central lounge room (5.5x5.0m). The home has three verandahs, a formal fireplace together with a combustion heater for those cooler winter evenings. A rear breakfast room runs off the kitchen, and a bathroom with large circular bath/shower and separate toilet.
Although the house is connected to town water; it offers a dual system using two large rain water tanks together with a waterless composting toilet for those keen on a small footprint.
The garden has fruit trees including citrus, banana, mango, cherry guava and pecan, as well as a chook run.
There is a very large (100m2) 3-bay industrial/commercial size shed separating the house block from the adjacent 6000m2 land.
This land slopes North-east with spectacular views over Mt Nardi and has at its highest point an approved studio/workshop (8mx4m) with its own verandah overlooking a large pond/pool.
(As a matter in interest this natural pool was featured in the Sydney Morning Herald and ABC's Organic Gardner, it has been neglected but it would not take a lot to return it to its former glory)

This land is zoned residential, and has a separate access allowing the potential to subdivide subject to Council approval in a number of ways. The fully fenced paddock which would ideally suit horses is currently agisted to cattle. Please call Peter Robinson to arrange an inspection.
