Perched high on a ridge with a stunning north-facing aspect, “Tallowwood” offers the lifestyle many dream of. A beautifully renovated home, well-established equestrian infrastructure including a full-sized arena, and sweeping rural views across 34.8 acres (14.09 hectares).
Enjoy the perfect balance of space, privacy and peaceful country living, all within easy reach of Port Macquarie (40 minutes drive) and Taree (35 minutes drive).
Delivering an immediate sense of wow factor, this beautifully renovated three-bedroom steel frame residence has been thoughtfully designed for effortless open-plan living, perfectly aligned with modern country luxury. Rich spotted gum flooring anchors the interiors, complemented by ducted air conditioning, LED lighting and ceiling fans in all bedrooms, creating a home that is both sophisticated and supremely comfortable. Expansive windows invite in natural light while framing picturesque rural vistas from every room, enhancing the sense of space and connection to the landscape. At its centre, a statement combustion fireplace with an integrated oven below offers both ambience and functionality — a true lifestyle feature, perfect for slow living, from baking artisan bread to woodfired pizza or a classic roast.
The heart of the home is the spacious open-plan living and dining zone, with an additional flexible area currently utilised as a play space. This versatile layout can easily accommodate formal and informal dining, a media zone or home office, making it ideal for both growing families and entertaining.
The master suite provides a private and beautifully appointed retreat, complete with built-in robes and a bespoke make-up nook concealed behind barn doors — a thoughtful and functional design feature. The ensuite is simply stunning, finished with a custom spotted gum vanity that perfectly complements the flooring, creating a cohesive and elevated aesthetic.
Throughout the home, the renovation has been executed with exceptional attention to detail, embracing a neutral, nature-inspired palette that will appeal to a wide range of buyers while maintaining a timeless, sophisticated feel.
Seamless indoor-outdoor living is a highlight, with direct access to the verandah — the perfect setting for morning coffee or evening drinks while overlooking the surrounding paddocks and watching your horses or livestock graze.
Designed with both lifestyle and practicality in mind, the property is exceptionally well suited to equestrian or rural pursuits. Infrastructure includes a full-sized horse arena, six fenced paddocks plus one open paddock, and stables complete with tack, feed and storage room, all supported by a reliable water system supplying troughs throughout the property.
Water security is a standout feature, with a 35,000L house tank, three additional 5,000L tanks, and a 50,000L header tank pumped from the dam and gravity-fed to paddocks. The property also features an Envirocycle septic system and a Pixie smart-home system, allowing lighting and selected power points to be controlled via an app — including the ability to operate horse fencing remotely.
The elevated position captures uninterrupted rural views across the property, best enjoyed from the full-length verandah. Downstairs, a large undercover entertaining area provides the ideal space for BBQs and relaxed gatherings, while a rear deck off the kitchen offers a peaceful setting for a morning coffee or herb garden.
Additional improvements include three-car garaging, a double freestanding carport, and an additional garage/workshop with its own bathroom (shower, vanity, toilet and washing machine space). While original, this space presents excellent potential for conversion into guest accommodation, a granny flat or separate quarters (STCA).
Move-in ready and thoughtfully upgraded, the property combines modern comfort with quality infrastructure for horses or livestock. With sweeping rural views, exceptional water security and key improvements already in place — including a 6.6kW solar system — this is a rare opportunity to secure a premium lifestyle property in a tightly held location.
