This stunning home offers all the benefits of rural living without the isolation and maintenance associated with many hinterland properties.

Situated right in the centre of the historic hamlet of Newrybar in Northern NSW, this one-acre parcel of land is surrounded by rolling green hills, fertile farmland and coffee plantations — an idyllic setting that creates a feeling of privacy and serenity.

Built more than a century ago, the re-stumped, restored and tastefully renovated Federation home exudes warmth and style. High ceilings, original teak flooring, lead light features and classic Federation fretwork blend beautifully with high-end finishes. This combines a timeless, elegant aesthetic with all the comforts of a contemporary family home.

The newly renovated kitchen is very well-equipped with ample benchtop space and storage — not to mention stunning views — that flow through to the dining area and living room. A large freestanding Smeg oven and gas cooktop along with white subway tiled splashbacks complete the space.

Nearby sliding doors open onto the wraparound deck, maximising space while connecting indoor living and outdoor entertaining. There's a sunken lounge to watch the sunset or host pre-dinner drinks before walking into town to dine at the award-winning Harvest Café.

Two of the three bedrooms have built-in wardrobes, with French Doors that open onto the verandah. The third bedroom makes for a perfect home office or child's bedroom.

The bathroom — specifically the freestanding tub — has arguably one of the best views of all: an elevated view of the lush green hills and roaming cattle from neighbouring farmland.


Endless possibilities

There are already plans in place with Council to expand the home into a sumptuous Hamptons-style homestead equipped with swimming pool, cabana, living area, gym, guest room, outdoor cooking area — and plenty more. It demonstrates the property's potential to add self-contained secondary accommodation with income potential or establish the perfect place for friends and relatives to stay. (Which they will once they see this place!)


Close-knit community

With a permanent population of around 460, Newrybar is a little village with a lot of soul.

First settled in 1881, the hidden hamlet — specifically the main street — is best-known for its historic buildings, close-knit community, boutique stores and the award-winning Harvest Restaurant, Deli and Bakery. These are all just a few minutes' walk from the property.

Despite its secluded atmosphere, it's only a 10-minute drive to Byron Bay, 5 minutes to Bangalow and 15 minutes to Ballina Byron Gateway Airport.
