26 Meadow Road, Armidale, 2350

If you’re looking for a one-off, master crafted home with space both inside and out, then read on…

Everything about this home shouts, “quality”.

From the land on which it is built, to the spacious living areas, the 5 bedrooms, the kitchen, bathrooms and office. The attention to detail is outstanding.

The home takes full advantage of its northerly aspect and 5 acres of fertile land.

Separate outside living areas are shaded in summer and cosy in winter.

The master with ensuite and 2 other bedrooms and a bathroom are on the ground floor, whilst another two bedrooms, bathroom, office and rumpus room are found on the upper level.

And then there’s the shed, 13 X 8 metres with power and a concrete floor.

In addition to the fantastic existing homestead, there is space galore to tailor the property to create the lifestyle you’ve only dreamt about.
