Set across 1.1 ha / 2.75 acres of established gardens, rainforest and open lawns, this beautifully preserved c.1910 Byron home offers five bedrooms, three bathrooms, a fully self-contained studio, a large garage and workshop, a secluded garden hideout, expansive entertaining spaces and exceptional infrastructure. Private and peaceful, yet remarkably connected, it is just seven minutes from Bangalow and under 20 minutes from Byron Bay and its beautiful beaches.
The home blends timeless character with thoughtful modern improvements. Original Brushbox timber floors, 10- and 13-foot ceilings, cedar French doors, arched hallways and wide wraparound verandahs create an inviting sense of space, warmth and enduring country charm.
The house comprises four bedrooms and two bathrooms, a living room, an eat-in kitchen with spectacular views over the garden, and a sunroom which functions as the laundry. For entertaining, a fully equipped outdoor kitchen with a wood-fired stove and BBQ creates an ideal setting for long lunches and relaxed gatherings.
Complementing this is a fully self-contained studio wing connected to the home by a covered verandah. With its own entrance and the ability to be completely closed off from the main residence, the studio functions as the fifth bedroom and third bathroom. Its generous living and dining area with a wood-burning heater, a king-size bedroom with ensuite, kitchenette, and laundry offer flexibility for guests, parents, extended family, or additional income.
The established grounds are a defining feature, encompassing pockets of rainforest, tropical and formal gardens, open lawns, a large wildlife pond, plus three raised vegetable gardens. A separate, fully equipped gardener’s hut provides additional workspace, a private retreat, or income, complete with a generous verandah, air conditioning, a fridge, hot and cold water, and an outdoor bathroom. A substantial double garage, with a large undercover workshop and additional recreational space, provides an ideal multi-purpose area for hobbies, storage or leisure.
The property’s infrastructure has been exceptionally well considered, with 50,000 litres of rainwater storage, a reliable private bore, a 9.2kW solar system, a compliant septic system, multiple air-conditioning systems, wood burner and ceiling fans. Multiple access points, established fencing, and ample on-site parking add further practicality.
Peaceful, private and rich in character, this is a rare hinterland lifestyle offering space, flexibility and outstanding infrastructure. Bangalow is just seven minutes away, while Byron Bay, Mullumbimby, Brunswick Heads and Ballina Byron Gateway Airport are all within approx 20 minutes. Gold Coast Airport is 45 minutes away, and the much-loved The Hut restaurant at Possum Creek is just minutes away.
A truly special hinterland property that combines the romance and character of a historic Byron home with the space, amenity, and versatility of modern country living.
