Set amongst established gardens and pockets of tropical rainforest, this charming Federation farmhouse offers a wonderful opportunity to embrace a slower pace of life in the peaceful surrounds of Mullumbimby Creek with views to Koonyum range and surrounding valley. Originally constructed in 1903, the four-bedroom home retains the character and craftsmanship of its era, with weatherboard construction, old-growth timber, VJ panelling, high ceilings and beautiful timber floors.
Positioned on a level, 5,421m² block, the property offers a manageable taste of rural living, with plenty of room for a veggie garden, chickens, family pets and outdoor pursuits. The home has wonderful bones and presents an opportunity to thoughtfully update and enhance, while preserving its Federation character and timeless appeal.
At the rear, a north-facing deck overlooks the backyard, providing a lovely setting to enjoy the sunshine, entertain or simply take in the peaceful surrounds. Tropical rainforest runs along the western boundary and the length of Stones Creek, creating a natural green backdrop and a sense of privacy. Established gardens feature a magnificent royal poinciana, figs, citrus trees and tropical plants, with abundant birdlife bringing the landscape to life.
Water security is well considered, with two above-ground tanks providing a combined 44,000-litre capacity, complemented by a high-end UV filtration system and three-stage cartridge filtration. The land sits more than 20 metres above sea level, and the home has never flooded in over 120 years.
The combination of original features, solid timber construction and a generous, level parcel of land provides an appealing foundation for the next chapter. Everything you need is close by, with Shearwater Steiner School just two minutes along Left Bank Road. Mullumbimby's cafés and restaurants are around six minutes away, and the river and beaches of Brunswick Heads are about 20 minutes' drive.
This is a Federation farmhouse with heart, history and room to grow. A beautiful natural setting and the opportunity to create something truly special.
