THIS big, private residence has been home to the same family for about 18 years and is being offered for sale for the first time.

Those wanting to stretch out, work from home or those with larger families will love the flexible floor plan, as will people who want rural-style living with easy, level access and room to breathe (or space to keep extra vehicles, boats, camper trailers etc).

Positioned on the block to take advantage of both the sunlight and the tranquil, towering gums, the home also has wide wrap-around verandahs, which really suit the Aussie bush lifestyle.

Entry is into the spacious open plan living area, which fits a large lounge suite and square eight-seater dining table with ease.

There’s also a Eureka wood fire.

The adjoining galley kitchen with walk-in-pantry has a lovely aspect out to the gardens and there’s a family room beyond to set up a kids’ play area or perhaps a homework station, to supervise the kids while you’re preparing dinner.

Those who work from home will love the fact the fifth bedroom is just beyond this space, allowing the ideal office zone while keeping the other bedrooms more private (the family bathroom is conveniently also on this level).

While not having to share a bedroom is bound to keep the kids of bigger families happy, the parents haven’t been forgotten either, with a serene retreat upstairs.

A bay-style window is the ideal spot to enjoy the tranquil tree-lined outlook, and there’s a deck off here large enough for a bistro setting for your morning cup of tea.

An ensuite and walk-in-robe complete the picture.

Back downstairs and a spacious covered outdoor entertaining area is perfect for barbecues or entertaining friends, and the largely gravel driveway to the double lock up garage provides easy access to this area and beyond.

Bring your van, trailer and perhaps kayaks for Sunday morning trips down to the Bellinger River at Mylestom.

The requisite tanks and garden storage sheds in this area mean you don’t need to clutter the garage, there are two drinking water tanks of approximately 24,500 litres (6,500 gallons) and approximately 32,500 litres (8,500 gallons) along with a third tank for watering the garden which also has a fire pump.

Go for a stroll down the block (or drive your ride-on mower) beyond the bush and out into another open paddock at the rear.

You’re bound to be surprised.

There’s a lot more easily accessible space than you might imagine.

Designed to suit the block, this home still has plenty of scope to add your own personal touches, or simply move in, stretch out and enjoy the easy family living as is!
