Character filled home in the heart of Macksville

 

 

Step back in time and discover this enchanting 1908 cottage, lovingly restored to showcase its enduring charm and character. As the original home on the site, it exudes history from the moment you step through the wrought-iron garden gates and feel yourself slip into a peaceful slice of Macksville’s past.

Surrounded by established weeping gums and framed by an inviting wide bullnose verandah, the cottage features two generous bedrooms, all enhanced by beautifully maintained hardwood floors, walls, and ceilings. A separate additional room captures breathtaking views toward the Bellingen mountains—ideal as a third bedroom, home office, or a relaxed sitting room where you can unwind and admire the scenery.

The cosy lounge area, complete with a delightful original open fireplace, flows seamlessly into the spacious kitchen. Here, timber benches, porcelain sinks, and a well-appointed butler’s pantry (with dishwasher) elevate everyday living. The kitchen also offers ample storage, induction cooking, a modern oven, and the added charm of an original Bega No. 3 wood-fired stove with flue.

The renovated bathroom is a retreat in itself—featuring a luxurious double shower, double vanity, WC, and a bathtub positioned perfectly to enjoy the serene outlook. A generous laundry with space for both washing machine and dryer adds practicality.

Step outside onto the wide covered rear deck, where stairs lead into an abundant yard filled with manicured gardens and a variety of fruiting trees and vines—grapes, limes, avocados, grapefruit, and more. It’s the perfect blend of beauty and self-sufficiency.

A self-contained motorized garage with private rear-lane access enhances convenience, while secure fencing and mature hedges provide privacy.

Whether you’re seeking a peaceful lifestyle or dreaming of a charming Airbnb opportunity, this cottage is sure to delight.
