Welcome to "Yonderly", a wonderful 10 acre property situated 5 minutes east of Wauchope and only 22 kms to Port Macquarie CBD. This was the home of Densey Clyne who was a writer of 30 books, photographer, speaker, TV presenter and producer and has scripted documentaries and worked with the legendary Sir David Attenborough. Densey also presented natural history segments for eight years on Burke's Backyard.
Her lifetime was dedicated to exploring, understanding and sharing knowledge about the natural world.
"Yonderly" has a rich history and the outstanding features of this property are the gardens and outdoor living areas with a diverse range of plantings, from a cottage garden to wonderful Bougainvilleas which were her favourite plants.
The home is a classic country style with wide verandahs, high ceilings and spacious rooms that look out to the gardens. The layout of the home has a grand, oversized master bedroom with ensuite, sunroom and walk in robe at the eastern side of the home. This bedroom is accessed through the library which could also be used as a parent's retreat.
Off the library is an office or extra, large bedroom and second bathroom with freestanding bath and separate shower. The country gas kitchen with a bay window that overlooks the rear lily pond and yard adjoins the casual dining room, which leads out to the rear covered verandah. The sizeable main lounge room has a formal dining space at one end and has a separate sitting room adjacent which could be an extra bedroom. Currently there are three bedrooms, two with their own ensuites, with the potential to have 5 bedrooms if required.
A separate, long double garage sits off the western side of the home and has an attached carport to fit 3 more cars or a caravan/boat. As expected, there is a shade house off the carport and a bathroom with shower and toilet. Split system air conditioners cover the master bedroom, lounge room, sitting room and 3rd bedroom.
Solar hot water and solar electricity panels help the sustainability footprint.
This home would make a great family escape with delightful gardens, room for the kids to play and only a few minutes to shopping at Wauchope or an easy 20 minute trip in to Port Macquarie and the beaches.
Just off the rear verandah is a lily pond with pavilions at either end that is a perfect setting to enjoy the serenity of this rural escape.
