Last Listing description (January 2025)

Privately situated at the end of a 600m sealed drive on 20 acres outside Mullumbimby, this character-filled home is nestled high on a hilltop with a magnificent outlook over the hinterland and valley.

Positioned to maximise privacy and the northerly aspect, the main house has three bedrooms, a stylish bathroom and offers a comfy country lifestyle. The apartment to the front enjoys panoramic views of the surrounding forest and stars at night from its loft bedroom and has its own private entrance.

Built in the early 1970s, the geodesic dome is a self-contained, energy efficient, unique multi-purpose space. The epicentre of gatherings in the Hippy Era and featured in a documentary series 'Mullumbimby Madness', the iconic dome has been lovingly restored to her former glory, preserving her heritage while adding a dystopian, futuristic edge using a mix of materials and features such as polished concrete floors and industrial light fittings. A covered bus, including amenities and machinery sheds complete the infrastructure package and provide potential for rental income or a communal lifestyle.

Spread over three levels, the spacious primary property was built in the early 1920's, relocated to its current position in the 1960's and has enjoyed a thoughtful renovation that ties in with original features such as timber flooring, architectural cedar church wall panels, and a cast iron fireplace with intricate floral tiling. Making extensive use of native timbers sourced and milled on the property, the renovation includes recycled and reclaimed items; concrete benchtops, timber cabinetry, windows and vintage glass pantry doors to retain the early country charm.

There are wide north/east and west facing verandas to bask in the tranquility of the outdoors reading a book on a daybed or simply watching the birds fly by, and there's plenty of level land with stunning established gardens and vegetable beds. There is also an established fruit forest which includes productive dragonfruit, plum, banana, mango, pomegranate, starfruit, kiwi, and citrus. A sustainable lifestyle is achievable with a 60,000-litre tank water system and an 8kw solar system.

Conveniently located close to the vibrant town of Mullumbimby, the property feels far from the hustle and bustle of life but is also just 30-minutes from Brunswick Heads and Byron Bay, and 45 minutes to the amenities and services on the Gold Coast.
