Overview

399 Summervilles Road Bellingen NSW 2454

Set across 40 acres of pristine riverfront land, this exceptional estate embodies refined country living where architectural presence, natural beauty, and timeless craftsmanship converge to create a property of remarkable distinction.

Upon arrival, the home’s commanding, almost castle-like presence harmoniously integrates with its landscape, framed by established trees, manicured grounds, and sweeping north-easterly views extending toward the Gondwanaland rainforest mountains.

This residence is master-built in solid double brick construction and has been thoughtfully enhanced through extensive premium renovations, ensuring both structural integrity and modern comfort.

Inside, generous proportions and carefully considered design create a home that is both impressive and welcoming. High ceilings, quality materials, and a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living spaces reflect a commitment to craftsmanship rarely found in contemporary builds.

The home offers five spacious bedrooms, each featuring built-in wardrobes, French red cedar doors and windows, and direct access to private balconies that serve as individual retreats embracing the surrounding landscape.

The flexible floorplan provides excellent separation of space, with one bedroom located on the lower level and four positioned upstairs.

The master suite is a true sanctuary, featuring a private ensuite, walk-in dressing area, and an expansive entertainment zone. A spa bath opening onto the verandah invites a connection with the outdoors, elevating everyday living into a more indulgent experience.

An additional attic room offers valuable flexibility, ideal as guest accommodation, a home office, or creative studio.

At the heart of the home, the open-plan living and dining area is designed to capture the extraordinary outlook, with bay windows framing uninterrupted mountain views.

Fully tiled floors ensure easy-care living, while red cedar-lined ceilings add warmth, texture, and timeless character. Whether hosting guests or enjoying quiet evenings, this space remains connected to the landscape at every moment.

Beyond the residence, the land itself offers both beauty and functionality. Rich alluvial soils support established citrus orchards, pecan and macadamia trees, along with mango and avocado plantings, providing a strong foundation for sustainable living or boutique agricultural pursuits.

A fully integrated irrigation system, supported by river access and a private dam, ensures reliable water supply across the property, while a greenhouse allows for year-round cultivation and true farm-to-table living.

Direct access to the Bellinger River provides deep, clear waterholes ideal for swimming, kayaking, and fishing, further enhancing the lifestyle on offer.

Infrastructure and lifestyle features include 40 acres of gently undulating fertile riverfront land, direct river access with deep swimming and fishing holes, established orchards and productive agricultural infrastructure, a greenhouse for year-round growing, a sophisticated irrigation system supported by river access and dam, an additional private dam enhancing water security, an extensive solar system supporting energy independence, high-capacity water storage ensuring long-term resilience, a large machinery shed and infrastructure for rural operations, a secure bird coop for hobby farming or small livestock, a private salt-chlorinated pool with uninterrupted mountain views, and an additional elevated parcel with cabana and prime second dwelling site.

With infrastructure already in place and a designated site ready for a second dwelling (subject to council approval), this property offers genuine scope for expansion, multi-generational living, or income potential.

Whether as a private family estate, lifestyle retreat, or self-sufficient rural holding, the flexibility here is as compelling as the setting itself.

Properties of this calibre combining riverfront access, architectural presence, established infrastructure, and true self-sufficiency are rarely brought to market. This is more than a home; it is a lifestyle, a legacy, and an opportunity to secure a truly remarkable holding in one of the region’s most sought-after natural environments.
