Last Listing description (June 2026)

Set across an extraordinary 129-acre holding in the heart of the Byron hinterland, this is a rare opportunity where scale, approval and natural beauty converge. With DA approval already in place for a 15-lot subdivision, each lot allowing for two dwellings (STCA), the groundwork has been done to unlock significant value in one of the region's most tightly held landscapes.

The land itself is as compelling as the approval. Rolling green meadows, meandering creeks and forested pockets create a rich and varied environment, offering both privacy and a deep connection to nature. Elevated positions capture sweeping panoramic views to the Nightcap Ranges, with a sense of space and openness that is increasingly hard to find.

Currently operating as a working rural holding, the property is fully fenced and running cattle, with existing infrastructure supporting primary production. Importantly, it benefits from primary production status, offering potential land tax advantages that will appeal to both investors and long-term holders.

Beyond its immediate agricultural use, the true value lies in its flexibility. Whether realised as a premium lifestyle subdivision, a legacy landbank, or a private estate with future upside, this is a holding that offers both present-day utility and long-term vision.

Located just minutes from Federal village, with Bangalow and Byron Bay within easy reach, the property strikes a rare balance between seclusion and accessibility.

This is not simply a land offering. It is a strategic acquisition with approval, scale and one of the most compelling natural settings in the Northern Rivers.
