WHAT’S HAPPENED THIS WEEK?

Well, its been a busy one! Aside from a serious lack of sleep attributed to the new born Ruby, the real estate world continues to push forward.

Congratulations to Mic and Rebecca on the purchase of the beautiful 1920’s house on Dowle Street, 1.5 acres of riverfront land. The move from Sydney to Bellingen will be welcomed by their two young boys…..land to run, rivers to swim and trees to climb! Congratulations to Kim and Michael also, where will the next move take them? Lani and Terry moved out of their Sunset Ridge home toward Coffs and Lee moved from his hometown of Orange onto the North side. Peter and Fi moved from the stunning Cherrybrook farm into the heart of Bellingen on the South side. Sebastian and Jane are thrilled to be making the move from Sydney close to Chrysalis Steiner School.

It’s interesting the comments and opinions we receive about the difference between the North and South side of town, which is measured by the Bellinger River running through the middle of Bellingen. Is there really that much of a difference? Some say they would rather be close to town. Others feel that wherever you are its always a maximum 10-15min stroll into town regardless.  What about the floods? Well, you actually have just as much chance being cut off from Coffs living on the South side as you do being cut off on the North side. Waterfall Way goes under as does the Bellingen Bridge. Hydes Creek Rd is nearly always open through to Coffs. The North Side has the Providore…..the South side has access to the town centre, however shops often close due to staff being unable to get into town. At the end of the day, living here, floods are part of the rhythm of life and an awesome site to watch. Walking down to the writhing brown mass of the Bellinger River, you are bound to meet and chat with people you haven’t bumped into before.

We are in need of houses priced $400,000 – $500,000. This is the price point many people moving from down South are looking for. If you have, or know of someone who may have a house within this price range, the team at openhomeonline would be very interested in chatting with them. Alternatively, if you or a friend is looking for a particular style of property in the Bellingen area, we would be happy to work with you in finding the right home.

Regards, the team at openhomeonline.
