Barbara's Guest House | 5 Burns Street, Byron Bay
Just a 3-minute stroll from Byron's vibrant cafs and boutique shops, and moments from Main Beach and Belongil Beach, you'll find this gorgeous woodcutter's cottage. Currently set up as a guest house, it's a property with a laidback, relaxed vibe that could easily be converted back into a stunning family home.
Out the front, there are beautifully cared for gardens, complete with a striking Boab tree. Stroll down the driveway to the back of the property, and you'll find yourself in the heart of a chilled-out oasis - an indoor/outdoor tropical living area with comfy sofas, a relaxing swing seat, intimate reading/lounge area, and a large communal table.
Inside the main cottage, there are four stunning double bedrooms, all with original wooden floors, fans, aircon, luxurious plantation shutters and access to a private bathroom. The charming suite offers a peaceful retreat. There's private access via the front verandah, a chilling out area with a day bed, a fully kitted out kitchenette and a stunning ensuite.
The luxurious loft room is upstairs in the new extension and has its own separate entrance. It's a light-filled, self-contained apartment with a king-size bed, ensuite, kitchen and lounge area with bi-fold windows that open up the living space and welcome in the cooling sea breeze.
If you're not in the market for a business opportunity, it would be easy to convert this gorgeous property back into a relaxed family home. What's more, the upstairs apartment could work perfectly as a parents' retreat or provide a touch of independence for older teenagers or visiting family and friends.
