Exterior & Historical Details: As you approach the property, you're immediately drawn to the original features that make this home so special. The home is elevated, sitting proudly on a 699m² flat block with a welcoming front deck, perfect for enjoying your morning coffee or tea. The use of reclaimed building materials from around the area adds a distinct historical touch – a true testament to the craftsmanship of the time. The weatherboards are made from durable red stringybark, and the front and side floors feature the same stunning timber.

Interior Features & Character: Step inside, and you'll be transported back to the golden era of design, where every detail tells a story. The soaring high ceilings and timber floors give a sense of space throughout the home. The living areas feature Queensland Maple solid timber panelling with 95mm picture rails, creating a refined atmosphere that feels warm and inviting.

Signature Features: A standout feature of this home are the large cedar sash windows, measuring an impressive 1380mm wide by 1950mm high. These windows flood the living spaces with natural light, enhancing the sense of openness and providing a connection to the outdoors. The ceilings are adorned with deep pressed metal – a classic touch often seen in old banks – adding to the historic charm of the home.

Two sets of French doors made from Canadian redwood offer access to the sunroom, while the internal doors are solid hoop pine, adding to the home's solid, quality feel. And let's not forget the original stained-glass window at the front of the house, which is truly irreplaceable.

Bedrooms & Living Spaces: The home features two spacious bedrooms, each with its own character. The main bedroom, with ornate horsehair plaster detailing, is a true standout, offering a glimpse into the past with its timeless beauty. This bedroom opens out onto an enclosed sunroom, which could easily become an additional living area, home office, or reading nook."

There's also a large front entrance that could be ideal for a home office or additional living space, providing plenty of versatility depending on your needs. The current owners have added a solar system to utilise the sun in the beautiful Northern Rivers.

Kitchen & Potential: The kitchen features an industrial Waldorf gas free-standing stove – perfect for home chefs – and the original timber cabinetry and timber benches, which offer a wonderful base for anyone looking to bring their personal style into the space.
