Description

There are few more spectacularly beautiful locations on the North Coast of NSW than Barkers Vale –
home to fast flowing streams, tall rainforest, dramatic mountain views, and the famous recreational
mecca of Hanging Rock Falls.
The most sought-after properties in this location are the hobby-farm-sized properties.
These give the owners a peaceful idyllic lifestyle surrounded by nature’s beauty without the high maintenance of large farms. And with a location just 77 kms from the Gold Coast Airport, you can work from home here and easily travel for meetings in the city, or it could become your perfect weekender! You can easily commute to work or grab a coffee in close-by Kyogle, Nimbin, Lismore or Murwillumbah.
This fabulous offering of 6.85 hectares (approx. 17 acres) has it all, including both a house and a studio to support your dream lifestyle.
The land is gentle, sloping slightly down from both dwellings to take in beautiful views of Blue Knob Mountain and Sphinx Rock. Behind the homes to the west and north-west there’s undulating forests leading ultimately to the Border Ranges…giving you protection from the western heat and winds in Summer. You also have water security with a dam on the property and 4 large tanks on both home and shed. This is ample to keep your many mature fruit trees happy even in the driest of times. And with 17 acres of mostly cleared land you can have animals or dabble in horticultural pursuits.
The north-easterly facing 3 bedroom 1 bathroom home is quite delightful. Like all good Australian country residences it has outdoor covered outdoor areas. There’s a long verandah on one side of the home and a very deep and wide covered deck out front – the perfect spot for relaxing or entertaining.
The home’s interior has been painted in neutrals & whites which contrast beautifully with the polished timber floors and windows.
This creates the perfect canvas for your choice of furnishings, artifacts and artwork. It has high raked ceilings with exposed beams (great for ventilation) and the service areas have all been recently updated.
The single bedroom studio is located inside a big and modern Colorbond shed which faces east and is located remotely from the main home for privacy. There is a storage/workshed section at the back of the studio. This studio has a genuine country ambiance and has received lots of ‘thumbs up’ from all who have visited the property. The owner has created a comfortable ‘home away from home’ space. The old pot belly stove in the stone-surrounded recreation area has ‘country contentment’ written all over it.
Of note are the beautiful selection of native flowering plants surrounding house and studio/shed. In fact this property’s grounds are maintained in a way that will inspire your country dreams. Freshly slashed for the season ahead, there are also mature specimen trees for shade whilst not impeding those stunning mountain views.
