“Merry Fields” is a unique property with an outstanding Tudor styled residence.
Located midway between Lismore’s commercial district and Ballina’s river and beaches; less than forty minutes (whereis) from iconic Byron Bay. There are great schools, both private and government, a University, TAFE, three hospitals and two airports (plus Coolangatta) in the surrounding areas.
There are 9.677 prime hectares (nearly 24 acres) with a section of rainforest trees, a small spring-fed dam and a little creek in the wet season where Marom Creek begins. You also have town water supply as well as tanks and a windmill. A delightful glass conservatorium is the perfect place to entertain friends and celebrate your special occasions. The Tudor styled 12m x 7m ‘shed’ has power and lighting. A beautiful setting for BBQ and outdoor activities looking out across the acreage.
In addition to the stunning residence, Merryfields offers the potential to be self-sufficient with your electricity needs covered with a massive 10 kw of solar power straight from the sun. The panels are set on the ground and follow the sun throughout the day to maximise the harvest. The land is clean and tractor workable . Would suit any livestock or horticultural pursuit, ideal for macadamias or blueberries. There is a small secluded section of rainforest plus approximately 1000 hardwood timber trees planted around the fencelines.
Inside, the residence holds true to character with high decorative ceilings, featured floral wallpaper and Cerabati French tiles. Rosewood features on the stairwell and the kitchen benchtops, with Australian red timber kitchen cupboards. Brass tapware shines bright in both the ensuite and main bathroom. Angled ceilings feature in the guest rooms upstairs and there is a gorgeous big attic for storage, gym or play. High standards and quality are evident throughout this residence.
The location on the Bruxner Highway, the main thoroughfare between Ballina and Lismore gives both visibility and easy access for any tourism activities (subject to council approval). The home is set 200 metres back from the road with mature and flowering trees making a perfect setting for wedding photos and the like. The wrought iron electric entrance gates have lighting. Merryfields would make a fabulous Bed & Breakfast, tea house or for childcare and may even support a helipad (subject to council approval).
