577 Boyle Road, Koonorigan, NSW, 2480, Australia

There is something very comfortable and homely about this property. It has been part of the one family for many generations in various forms and a happy family energy is rooted in the land and home. First time on the market, this is a hidden gem that becomes more and more charming as you wander over it. Set in the foothills of the beautiful Koonorigan Valley this property is a pocket of rural and forested land in one perfect package.

The land is 4.6ha or 11 acres, a rare size and highly desirable for sustainable living. It is studded with mature specimen trees, has manicured and colourfully landscaped backyard-gardens , multiple established fruit trees and a small forest plantation of mature Hoop Pine and cabinet timber on the southern boundary. This, combined with the elevation that gives sweeping valley and mountain views, makes for a picturesque and easily maintainable property. The roomy and very well-presented solid brick residence (with Hardi-plank extensions), nestles into the landscape, completing the picture of the perfect farmlet.

The 4 bedroom 2 bathroom home is both spacious and inviting, with an emphasis on natural light by incorporating lots of windows and skylights into the build. The practical floor plan features the kitchen as the central hub of the home. There's no shortage of places to entertain with a massive dining room/family room, a large lounge room, a deck to the North and a covered Patio/BBQ area to the West, not to mention out under the stars at night around a fire pit.

You enter the home from the Southwest corner and into the Family/Dining Room. An extension of the original house, it is a spacious room with beautiful mixed hardwood floorboards and exposed beams with timber lined ceilings. Windows along the southern wall take in light and views of the surrounding trees. There's enough room for a dining table and a lounge area, making it the perfect family room. The master bedroom is accessed from this room via a private entrance.

From the Family Room you enter a large central entrance room from which the kitchen, bathroom, bedrooms and lounge room are all accessed.

The centrally located Kitchen, complete with walk-in-pantry, is bathed in natural light via a skylight and is fully accessible to the dining area through a wide servery. It has solid timber cabinetry and gas stove and oven.

A separate Lounge Room runs along the N/Eastern side of the home. This light-filled room has beautiful hardwood floorboards, windows on the East and glass doors to the Northerly deck. A large combustion heater warms the room in winter. With ceiling fans and an air-conditioner for the warmer months.

The Northern Deck is beautiful place to catch the winter sun and Summertime nor easterly breezes while watching the birds in the trees. Steps lead you to the garden from here.

Of the four bedrooms, two have floorboards and the two north facing rooms are carpeted. The Master bedroom has exposed beams and a timber lined ceiling with private balcony access, fan and air conditioning, whilst bedroom 2 has a skylight as well as glass-sliding access to the deck via a light-filled study. Three of the bedrooms have full-wall built-in robes.

The Main Bathroom has been delightfully renovated, with bath, separate shower and a flush toilet. A Second Bathroom is accessed from the rear entertainment patio and has a shower and flush toilet, perfect for when you’re working in the garden.

There is a large separate Laundry room opposite the main bathroom with plenty of cupboard space and access to the clothes line via the back patio.

The Back Patio/BBQ Area is large and undercover. With 2 fans and paved with brick it is notably cool in summer! Easy access to the kitchen makes it another perfect place to entertain guests.

Under the home is a fabulous garage that lends itself to more than just parking vehicles. A cool place in the summer for a home gym, ping pong or pool table and maybe you can park 3 cars there sometimes.

The infrastructure with this property can’t be ignored. There’s a large Colorbond shed or workshop w/ cement floor and power plus a garden shed as well as an old piggery which would be perfect for some beautifully plumed poultry, and the land is fenced with 2 paddocks for hooved animals. There’s an array of fruit trees, 4x 22kl rainwater tanks and a 4kl tank. The home has security screens on all doors, grid interactive solar, solar HW with electric backup and what everyone desires… beautiful northerly views from the land. There’s even the classic huge Moreton Bay Fig tree at the top of the land for sitting in the shade and taking in those views.
On a school bus route and with sealed road to Lismore (20km) or Nimbin (14 km) there’s only one other fabulous feature to mention. The price. This property is realistically priced and represents great value.
