15 Cockatoo Crescent

Mullumbimby NSW 2482

The home's connection to climate and landscape is further enhanced by both north and south-facing decks, with large sliders that allow you to respond intuitively to changing conditions, welcoming cooling breezes in summer and capturing warmth and light in winter. The enormous north-facing deck with its cantilevered roof is bathed in winter sun yet perfectly shaded in summer, creating an effortless indoor-outdoor connection.

Sliding walls in the bathroom and master bedroom open directly to the surrounding forest canopy, offering a rare opportunity to shower amongst the trees or relax in bed while watching the antics of black cockatoos passing through.

Natural, sustainable finishes define the interiors, including low-VOC harvested plywood, rough-sawn hardwood feature walls, formply kitchen joinery with locally grown and milled hoop pine benchtops, hardwood floors, and natural paints and oils. Every detail reflects a commitment to both environmental performance and aesthetic warmth.

Elevated to capture sweeping views to Mount Chincogan and a stunning 'big-sky' outlook, the home enjoys a deep connection to its landscape. Established gardens by Elemental Gardens and Landscaping feature basalt retaining walls and steps, native plantings, orchards and productive raised beds, all set amongst expansive bush gardens with mature Tallowood and Brushbox trees. A custom chicken coop and fire pit under the forest canopy, along with direct access to the Mooibal Spur walking track traversing the ridgeline behind the house, further enhance the lifestyle offering.

There is ample space to grow food, garden and connect with nature, while still enjoying the convenience of being able to ride, via local bike paths, or walk into Mullumbimby's vibrant town centre. The area is known for its welcoming, family-friendly feel, with a strong sense of community and children playing in the street.

With public land bordering three sides, privacy and outlook are protected, while abundant wildlife, including nesting kookaburras and butcher birds, echidnas, bandicoots, blue-tongue lizards, sugar gliders and possums, adds to the immersive natural setting. By day, the home is alive with birdsong, while evenings bring the gentle, grounding sounds of the surrounding bush.

Located in a quiet, no-through street, the property offers the perfect balance of seclusion and connection, just 10 minutes from the beaches of Brunswick Heads, 20 minutes to Byron Bay, and 45 minutes to Gold Coast Airport.

There is also ample space for future expansion, with concept plans (unapproved) for a self-contained studio thoughtfully positioned to capture views into the adjoining reserve.
