Description
This is unique one of a kind !!!!
Part of an original dairy farmhouse - before Goonellabah became suburbanized - the apartment has just been renovated, including a new kitchen, refurbished bathroom and new air con.
The entrance is via an exclusive tree-shaded pathway that leads via a one-storey flight of external stairs to a covered landing, enclosed in wisteria and Petrea vines.
From the front door, one enters a vestibule which leads on to a cosy new galley kitchen with an adjoining breakfast nook.
A grand open archway gives onto a spacious lounge with built-in cupboards along one entire wall.
A light-filled corner room could serve as a sunroom, sleepout or study.
New LED downlighting combined with the soft muted colours, high traditional ceilings and polished floorboards throughout makes for an understated class property.
Located on the ridge overlooking Southern Cross University, it is a 10-minute walk /5-minute car away from campus and is also on several local bus routes linking to both the campus, local shopping centres, and Lismore CBD.
The property has been planted as an edible permaculture garden with several vegetable plots and an array of standard and exotic tropical fruits for the tenants' use. To minimize carbon footprints all organic green waste is composted on-site and recycled via the garden beds.
There are flower displays during each season with mass highlights of colour in Spring. The front outside walls are pretty well covered in a range of climbers (wisteria, jasmine, Petrea, geranium, orange and yellow trumpet vines) providing winter sun, spring flowers and summer shade.
An added benefit of the mass abundance of greenery is the passive cooling of the interior spaces and a beautiful diffused soft light.
Water charges are borne by the Landlord, whilst gas (hot water) and electricity (for cooking and lighting) are separately metered and paid by the tenant.
Externally there is a communal laundry with fittings for the tenant’s washing machine.
Local wildlife on the property consists of koalas, possums, roadrunner and blue tongue lizards as well as bush turkeys. The birdlife is particularly prolific, with flocks of parrots, currawongs, magpies, kookaburras and butcher birds amongst others in constant chorus and visitation.
The tenant we are looking for is ideally either studying or working, drug-free, a non-smoker, eco-conscious and responsible. The property is only suitable for a single or couple, with no children.
A demonstrable successful rental history is an absolute non-negotiable requirement!!!
The Bond is the normal four weeks rent deposited with NSW Bonds Online, rent is $380 paid weekly via automatic NetBank transfer.
