85 Richardson Road, Raymond Terrace NSW 2324

Bushland backing | north-facing light | 2.5 acres | rare privacy | renovation potential The buying case rests on a rare combination: a private bushland setting with no rear neighbours, north-facing light across the day, and a 1.01-hectare block that offers genuine separation without leaving town. The existing 337m² building provides a solid shell for renovation or extension, and the 3% building coverage leaves ample room for reconfiguration or future subdivision potential if zoning permits. This property best suits a buyer seeking a long-term lifestyle upgrade with scope to add value through capital works, rather than a turnkey purchase. The bushfire overlay is the primary risk—it will increase insurance costs and impose stricter building standards for any extension or new structure, which a buyer must factor into budget and timeline. No flood or heritage constraints simplify approvals. Reliable NBN and 5G support remote work, reinforcing the semi-rural appeal. The rental estimate of $625 per week suggests modest income yield, so the property is better held for capital growth and personal use than as a pure investment. Buy for the land and privacy, then improve the house at your own pace.
