Positioned high above the Northern Rivers on approximately 40.07 hectares (99 acres), this remarkable ridgeline property presents one of the region's most significant landholding opportunities. Elevated, exceptionally private and largely untouched, it commands sweeping views across rolling hinterland to the Pacific Ocean, with the Cape Byron Lighthouse visible on the eastern horizon.
Offering an extraordinary combination of scale, natural beauty and future potential, the property is zoned RU2 Rural Landscape and benefits from dwelling entitlement (STCA), allowing buyers to create an exceptional private residence designed to embrace its commanding position. Preliminary planning advice identifies a preferred ridgeline building envelope, while the expansive holding also offers potential for compatible rural, tourism or visitor accommodation uses, subject to the necessary approvals.
The landscape is richly diverse, encompassing subtropical rainforest, wet sclerophyll forest, open ridgeline vegetation, native palm groves and an abundance of established wildlife habitat. Every aspect of the property has been preserved to showcase the area's remarkable ecological character while providing a rare sense of privacy and seclusion.
Despite its peaceful setting, the property remains exceptionally well connected, located approximately 20 minutes from the Tweed Valley, 30 minutes from Byron Bay, 45 minutes to the Gold Coast, and around 90 minutes from Brisbane, placing world-class beaches, airports and everyday conveniences within easy reach.
Whether envisioned as a landmark private estate, an architectural retreat or a carefully considered nature-based destination (STCA), this is a rare opportunity to secure one of the Northern Rivers' most impressive elevated landholdings.
