Once Upon A Farmhouse
In the early 1900's, the northern rivers was developing a reputation for it's extraordinary dairy industry. The homes that were being built at the time, in the Federation style, became the iconic Australian farmhouse. This has long been one of my favourites, and truly one of the loveliest examples, in our region. It's a local landmark, the original farmhouse of the previous dairy farm and an absolute delight to make a home.
This homestead is only 18km from Lismore on good quality roads. It's set on 6 hectares (just under 15 acres) and enjoys a lofty position with an enviable northerly aspect.
The views here really are spectacular. The soil is rich and fertile. There's an abundance of harvested water including tank and dam. The land is undulating with open grazing paddocks and lush treed areas.
It's a solid yet elegant and stylish home, with high ceilings, original coloured flannel flower patterned glass, French doors, and beautiful teak floors. 4 huge bedrooms open out to verandahs, with the western side closed in to provide all weather uses. Huge built-in robes to two of the bedrooms, seperate laundry, spacious butler's pantry plus a large shed, all support a large family's storage requirements.
A rear family room opens to the covered alfresco, pizza oven and swimming pool. All enjoying those beautiful views across the Keerrong valley.
This is a perfect place to be self-sufficient with ample grazing land, established veggie beds, a dam for irrigation and solar power already here.
Autumnal light currently drenches the homestead. The days are sunny but cooler and it's perfect for preparing veggie gardens for the spring crops. In winter there's the warming wood-fired stove in the kitchen. Summertime enjoy afternoon breezes, sunset drinks and cooling dip in the pool. All year round this dream home delivers a lifestyle, a sanctuary, a retreat……and it rewards its owners with abundance.
