It has been decided that after 26 family and fun-filled years this original 1900′s homestead is to be listed for sale.
Located at Dorroughby in the Byron Hinterland it is just half an hour’s drive to the beaches at Byron and less to the cafes of Bangalow.
The homestead, whilst comfortable, is ripe for restoration and has the most fabulous bones.
A magnificent formal lounge with 12″ceilings, ornate cornices, ceiling roses and classic timber paneling is the heart of the home.
An impressive hallway links the four generous bedrooms, a country style kitchen and a sunny conservatory. Polished timber floors, wide verandahs, French doors, bay windows, original timber vertical boards and classic glass panels add to the historic integrity of the home.
The views are splendid, from the Nightcap Range right across to the plateau above Ballina and the home, is totally private set amongst established feature trees and magnificent figs.
70 grazing acres extend down to long frontage to Boomerang Creek complete with swimming holes and picnic places.
There is a substantial farm shed with stable and the added bonus of town water to the house.
The family has loved it you will too!
