The two-storey property showcases expert craftsmanship, set on 1.3 acres of lush pasture with uninterrupted valley views to Mumbulla Mountain.<\/p>\n<p>Sales agent Candice Pocock from <a href=\"https:\/\/zango.com.au\/agencies\/mcgrath-merimbula\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">McGrath Merimbula<\/a> was captivated by the outlook as soon as she arrived.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou immediately get a sense of how much work went into this build,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe home features extensive floor-to-ceiling windows, all double-glazed, to bring the outside in at every opportunity. You get to take in Bega\u2019s rolling green fields and big open skies from every angle.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe exterior takes inspiration from modern industrial design, with bold horizontal lines and dark metal cladding softened by timber accents. The attention to detail is second to none, and RENSEN Construction spared no expense on top-quality, durable materials throughout.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Despite its grand proportions, the house feels elegant and warm indoors. Guests enter upstairs and are first drawn into the open-plan living, dining and kitchen area, where Scandinavian-inspired design gives off a resort-like feel.<\/p>\n<p><a data-action=\"click\" data-category=\"in-article-ad\" data-label=\"91\" href=\"https:\/\/velocityconveyancing.com.au\/\" rel=\"sponsored noopener nofollow\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Velocity_Sub-menu-Logo.png\" style=\"flex:initial\"\/><\/p>\n<p style=\"color:#232C65\">Get your property on the market faster with zero upfront costs.

It measures 55 square metres and includes a fully integrated six-burner BBQ, sink, glass-fronted bar fridge, and custom full-width blackbutt bench.<\/p>\n<p>A relaxed media room rounds out the upper-level living spaces.<\/p>\n<p>Three upstairs bedrooms each have deck access to take in the incredible valley views. Two offer built-in storage and share a family bathroom with a freestanding tub. The parents\u2019 suite features a custom-fitted walk-in wardrobe and luxurious ensuite, complete with a twin vanity and oversized shower.<\/p>\n<p>The fourth bedroom is downstairs and has its own bathroom, generous wardrobe and rumpus area for added versatility.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe rest of the lower level is taken up by a massive 147 square-metre garage,\u201d Candice says.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFinished with an epoxy-coated floor and accommodating up to six vehicles, it incorporates extensive workshop and storage space. There\u2019s more than enough room for your boat, caravan and other toys.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe grounds are low-maintenance, with native landscaping on one side of the home and lush lawns on the other. There\u2019s plenty of space to set up veggie gardens, a fire pit, pool or spa area \u2013 whatever your heart desires!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Extra features include an as-new rainwater tank and an 8.8 kW solar system to keep electricity costs down.<\/p>\n<p>Bega acts as the rural heart of the Sapphire Coast. Surrounded by rolling dairy pastures, the town has a rich farming history and offers easy access to pristine beaches. Food, art and love for the outdoors are all celebrated here.<\/p>\n<p>This property\u2019s current owners have loved living in the area, noting its family-friendly atmosphere and bustling town centre.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBega feels like an area with plenty of opportunity. People say hello in the street, and there are lots of young families, so it\u2019s been easy to make friends and feel at home,\u201d they say.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ve loved discovering the quieter local spots, especially the beaches we visit year-round.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe still pinch ourselves opening the curtains each morning. Having an afternoon barbecue while taking in the view is pretty hard to beat. The northerly sun is unreal in winter, and there\u2019s always a sheltered spot to sit outside regardless of what the weather is doing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Bega\u2019s shops, eateries, schools, hospital and famous cheese factory are just a quick car ride away from 49 Wumbulwarra Drive.<\/p>\n<p>Candice says the home would best suit an avid entertainer, a multigenerational family or downsizers coming from larger acreage.<\/p>\n<p>For more information on <a href=\"https:\/\/zango.com.au\/property\/96578fc1-d9a3-11eb-a27d-02e23cec637e\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">49 Wumbalwarra Drive<\/a> in Bega, contact <a href=\"https:\/\/zango.com.au\/agents\/candice-pocock\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Candice Pocock<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/zango.com.au\/agents\/taylor-mcneil\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Taylor McNeil<\/a>, and check out all the latest listings on <a href=\"https:\/\/zango.com.au\/sale\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Zango<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"This north-facing residence offers high-end modern living on the peaceful fringes of Bega.
