This unique home is perfectly positioned only a 1.5 kilometre walk from the Dubbo City Centre (now known as Dubbo Square) yet is located in one of the most private and secluded spots in Dubbo.
The short, very wide, tree lined section of street, where the home is located, has a traffic island of trees bisecting one end and the magnificent Macquarie River as a backdrop at the other end, which makes for a very picturesque and exclusive location that very few get to enjoy. There is no other area like it in Dubbo. Be quick as houses rarely come up for sale in this highly sought after location.
The home, positioned on the high side of the river, has stood the test of time and no recorded flood has ever reached it.
Very solidly built from Cypress pine and partially renovated, it has nine foot ceilings with decorative cornices, floating ceilings in the bathroom and toilet for ventilation and beautiful wooden floorboards throughout.
Upon entering the home you will notice the living areas and kitchen face in a northerly direction, with sunshine streaming in and beautiful views of the lovely backyard which is quite often filled with fairy wrens and honeyeaters.
There is a verandah out from the living areas to have your breakfast outside in the sun or alternatively there is a 20 metre long deck facing East towards the river with a beautiful outlook of nothing but trees.
For year round comfort, there is a ducted reverse cycle air con with controls in each room and a gas point for a gas heater in the lounge room.
There is gas, solar and electric hot water ensuring that you never run out of hot water.
The neat and tidy modern kitchen has plenty of bench space, soft close drawers/doors and a gas top, stainless steel stove with electric, fan forced oven making cooking a breeze.
There is a surveillance camera system installed outside, with its own alarm giving you peace of mind, but being in one of the best neighborhoods in Dubbo hardly necessary.
A large 20mx4m council approved shed has been constructed, up to lock up stage, fully insulated and connected to sewer for a bathroom and washtub, yet to be installed.
An extensive stormwater drainage system and all stormwater pipes on the property renewed ensures the shed remains dry, giving you peace of mind when you line the shed with gyprock and finish it off as per council approval.
If you love walking, running or cycling there is a shared use pathway and beautiful parkland extending for many kilometres north and south along the river 80 metres from your driveway. Following it South leads you to the zoo in 2.7 kilometres. Heading North for 1.5 kilometres brings you to the Northern end of the Main Street of Dubbo passing through a beautiful river park on the way.
For nights when you don’t feel like a 1.5 kilometre stroll across the LH Ford Bridge to the heart of the Dubbo CBD and all it has to offer, you can walk 350 metres along Stonehaven Avenue, past million dollar riverfront homes to Club Dubbo where you can socialise and enjoy a meal, with magnificent views of Dubbo.
The Westside Hotel is the same distance in the other direction, another lovely place to socialise and enjoy good food and drinks, both accessed from the rear.
Conveniently a 700 metre walk brings you to an IGA supermarket with other lovely shops, a cafe, restaurants etc at the West Dubbo shopping precinct on Victoria St and Whylandra st.
If you love a hit of golf the Golf Club is a four minute drive and if you need to fly somewhere the airport is only a 7 minute drive.
It really is an amazing location.
There is also parking for a van or boat in the driveway with boat ramp access to the river only 5 minutes away.
If you are looking for a well constructed cosy home in a secluded spot, with no through traffic, close to just about everything with a huge shed, three bedrooms, one bathroom, with a bath, separate shower, separate toilet and laundry, nice kitchen and light filled, north facing living areas, give us a call.
