East Gate is located on 20 fabulous hectares, only 10 minutes from Byron Bay. It enjoys the ultimate Byron panorama, encompassing the ocean and its coastline, Julian Rocks and the lighthouse to the north east and has unsurpassed rural views to the North West.
The 450m2 grand home is a faithful recreation of a Federation masterpiece and even the double high pitched carport, huge workshop and pool gazebo have been built in keeping with the Federation style. The home occupies prime position on about 1 1/2 acres of splendid landscaping and overlooks the sparkling 11.5m x 5.5m concrete salt water pool with night lighting and tessellated tiling surrounds.
The home has a grand reception entrance and hallway, 4 large bedrooms (2 with en suites), main bathroom, guest lavatory, sunroom, study, spacious entertainer lounge and dining space, vast country Federation kitchen with walk-in pantry, a large attic with adjoining widow’s walk, storeroom, extensive verandah-ing and entertaining terraces.

Landscaping features are over $100,000 worth of Australian native plants, post and rail fencing of home block, windmill, extensive red gravel walkways, 2 sets of entrance gates and a private 840 metre tared roadway to the house and visitor parking areas.
The house is constructed with adjustable supports to sub-floor framing, galvanized steel piers, a brick plinth around the exterior and colorbond roofing.
Water – today’s diamonds – for the house comes from 2 x 6,500 gallon tanks. A pool tank is located adjacent to the pool housing for topping up the pool level. A holding tank is located at the windmill for garden irrigation. Permanent water is supplied from a spring and is collected in 2 dams. A ring feed water reticulation system is operated by 2 Davey pumps. A large Trine eco sewerage system has been installed.
