In a picturesque setting with a historic past, this stunning 22 acre property brings your rural dreams to life. Once a thriving banana farm, the architect-designed main residence rests on a high point and is positioned to capture eastern vistas over the verdant valley. A second residence, the original cottage (circa 1920), has been revived and also rests on the land, offering multi-generational living or an income stream.
Designed by Byron Bay architect Christine Vadasz, the main residence blends seamlessly with the restored dry native rainforest that surrounds it, featuring vaulted ceilings and a sprawling floorplan that catches the prevailing breezes.
