Overview
Balleyrinn Farm A Reimagined Queenslander Estate with World-Class Equestrian Facilities
Set high in the Noosa Hinterland on 69 picturesque acres, Balleyrinn Farm is the kind of property that comes along once in a generation. A meticulously renovated 1920s Queenslander, a competition-grade indoor arena, a complete suite of equestrian infrastructure, an established macadamia plantation, and views that stretch from the Mary Valley to the coast all on a single, exceptional title.
The character is original. The infrastructure is brand new. The setting is breathtaking.
// The Home A Queenslander Reborn
The circa-1920s residence retains every ounce of its original charm high ceilings, VJ and panel board walls, French doors, casement and double-hung windows, wraparound verandahs and decking that wrap the home in light and outlook. A thoughtful, top-to-bottom renovation has brought it firmly into the present without losing a thread of its heritage soul.
Inside, a formal entry leads to four bedrooms, two bathrooms, a large updated kitchen, separate living and dining, and a sitting room generous, light-filled, and built for family life. The master suite is a true retreat with an ensuite featuring a deep clawfoot bath. Large new windows draw the gardens and views inside, while reverse cycle air-conditioning, ceiling fans, and 6kW of solar power keep year-round living effortless.
From every verandah, the outlook is extraordinary including one of the most magnificent Poinciana trees in the district, framed perfectly from the kitchen and dining.
// The Equestrian Facilities Genuinely World-Class
This is where Balleyrinn Farm stands apart from anything else on the market. The current custodians have built a complete, competition-grade equestrian set-up of a calibre rarely seen outside dedicated training centres:
- Olympic-sized indoor arena (60m x 20m) set within a natural amphitheatre overlooking the Mary Valley
- Premium Martin Collins waxed fibre surface the surface of choice at international competition venues
- Angled wooden kick wall and full equestrian lighting for evening rides and events
- Stables, day yards and a round yard
- Multiple fully-fenced paddocks ready for rotation, turnout and agistment
- Tack and feed room and wash bay
- Sound system and event-ready infrastructure
Whether you ride competitively, agist, train, or simply want the very best home for your own horses, the work is done and done to a standard you'd struggle to replicate from scratch.
An established equestrian business currently operates on site (arena hire, agistment, lessons and events under the Balleyrinn Farm brand) and is available for the next custodian to continue, expand, or wind back as they choose.
// The Land 69 Acres of Productive Hinterland
Set across sixty-nine acres of elevated and productive countryside, the property is accessed via a tranquil avenue of majestic Hoop Pines, creating a breathtaking sense of arrival and privacy. Three dams, extensive fencing, and approximately 200 mature macadamia trees retained from the original farm provide a beautiful connection to the property's rich agricultural history. With expansive usable land, the property offers endless potential for cattle, horses, livestock, or boutique agricultural pursuits alongside an exceptional rural lifestyle.
For the equestrian buyer, the land mass is the dream space to ride, room for cross-country work, and the privacy that only genuine acreage delivers.
Another unique feature of the property is the private bridle trail that meanders throughout the farm, offering an experience that is becoming increasingly rare in the region. As access and usability across broader trail networks continue to change, having your own dedicated riding trails entirely within the property is incredibly special.
The trail winds through rolling hills, open pasture, shaded pockets of timber, and the beautiful old macadamia orchard, creating a ride that is both functional and scenic. Horses can comfortably stretch out across the open country or enjoy a slower, peaceful meander beneath the trees and through the valleys. It is a wonderful training and conditioning asset, and one of the most enjoyable and calming aspects of daily life on the property.
