This lifestyle property on one of the area's most well regarded streets, is a masterful mix of natural landscapes, a solid elevated building and views that stretch all the way out to the ocean.
Set high-up on approximately 14 acres, this wonderful home caters generously for a family, or is easily uplifted into a stylish entertainer – regardless with this type of privacy yet incredibly convenient access to Ballina, Alstonville, Byron Bay and both the Bruxner and Pacific Highways, the lucky purchasers will get the opportunity to enjoy the best of what the Northern Rivers offers.
With improvements made to much of the gardens and lawns, made easier to mow and maintain, with an array of timber and rock retaining walls, a lot of the land has been conveniently terraced. With an all-year-round spring fed into holding tanks, plus tank water collected from the roofs, your most precious resource is well and truly taken care of. Where the tennis court was once enjoyed and is easily reverted back for sporting pursuits, greater practical uses such as storage, large sheds and or a flat section for animals is all possible.
Coming down the sealed driveway into one of the 4 undercover car parks, you enter the home under a picturesque turret. Walking through the living room, the first thing you notice is the high ceilings and solidness of the build; the home holds a quality that's hard to miss. Then, past the main lounge with stunning open fireplace, you go directly out onto the main deck – this alfresco outside living area is absolutely ideal as a place to enjoy the view whilst having a barbeque, sipping a cup of tea or whatever tickles your fancy. What is even more spectacular about this eastern facing entertaining area, is that it's framed by wildlife and wilderness on both sides all the way to the ocean; it doesn't get more tranquil than this.
With a generous private master bedroom with its own deck and the two separate bedrooms at the other end of the home upstairs, plus another two bedrooms and granny-flat area downstairs, the home is incredibly diverse in its ability to cater for various configurations of family, friends and visitors. It's just such a welcoming environment; each room invites you to enjoy and relax, giving the atmosphere of being in a retreat. At the heart of the home, is the sensational full-size kitchen with stunning granite benchtops, butler's pantry, and pleasant view from the sink to see when people arrive through to the front gardens, or back the other way through the cut and out to sea.
If you're someone who enjoys the outdoors, there are lovely gardens surrounding the home well established and easily tended to. For the adventurous type, one can jump on a quadbike or buggy to explore further down to the dam, carved trails or otherwise make your own. The land is there to be enjoyed or can be left to a simpler maintenance routine, made all the easier by the foresight of the current owners.
If you're looking for a gorgeous home minutes to absolutely everything you could need from the historic village of Alstonville (5.8km), Ballina or the Ballina Byron Airport (13.6km), the happening Byron Bay (39.3km), but you want to live amongst natures best with an ocean view, you have to come and see 178 Gap Road, Alstonville.
