Nestled amongst the foothills of the beautiful Korora Basin Valley and perched 100m above sea level to capture the elevated views and sea breezes is this exquisite contemporary styled home. It has been designed to retain the character and charm of an older era, whilst being modern and sophisticated in design, it would not be out of place featured in a Better Homes and Gardens magazine.
As you enter the home you are met with the large open living space that encaptures the views and elevated position of the property. The Living, Dining and Kitchen have ample space and flow together, the modern country style kitchen complements the overall design exquisitely. There is a custom built-in double office space complete with a double desk, USB points and NBN. The perfect home office or spot for the kids' homework station. The 3 bedrooms all have BIW and the generous master bedroom includes a spacious walk-in robe and ensuite, both bathrooms have been designed to incorporate the contemporary cottage design.
The large wrap-around deck overlooks the beautiful mountain range which opens up to an entertaining area to the rear of the house, overlooking the rear fenced yard you can easily watch the kids or pets playing in the backyard whilst enjoying a meal in this picturesque location. As you step down to the yard area there is 600m2 (approx) of buffalo turfed grass, courtyard and veg patch. Plenty of space for kids, dogs or even chickens.
The meticulously maintained small acreage has multiple spots to escape and enjoy nature. Designed to be scenic yet easy to maintain, the outlook is filled with native trees, palms, ferns and terraces. As acreage, all the little details have been considered from the large 60,000L + of water storage, to the reed bed wastewater treatment system, to the sheds, parking and solar system. No details have been missed in considering a beautiful semi-rural lifestyle whilst ensuring you still have time to enjoy the Coffs Coast lifestyle. PLUS there is the option to add a second dwelling (STCA) in a beautiful fern and palm-filled section below the main residence, it would be well suited to a holiday retreat, artist studio or extended family dwelling.
Korora Basin is a picturesque valley nestled at the base of the great dividing ranges only minutes north of Coffs Harbour, with rolling green hills, sub-tropical rainforest and tranquil streams. You feel you are at your own private retreat whilst being only minutes to Coffs Harbour, amazing beaches and surf, the highly regarded Korora Primary School and so much more.
