The large kitchen features gas cooking, quality appliances as well as ample bench and storage space. The backyard is an entertainer's dream, featuring an inground swimming pool, spa, fire pit, and pizza oven. The surrounding gardens feature a raised herb garden, chicken coop and numerous tropical and native plants. The unique sunken "secret garden", is serene and private, encircled by dry-packed stone walls - a wonderful place for a peaceful, meditative experience.
A very special and charming feature of this property is the handcrafted and lovingly restored, 120-year-old, former dining carriage of a grand old train. This stunning space offers quality finishes including the use of timbers such as Teak, Silky Oak and American Oak. Perfect for a variety of uses - guest accommodation, yoga, artist's studio or gym - the carriage is complimented by a modern day adjoining self contained area, all in keeping with the bespoke, bygone-era charm, with hardwood floors, gas cooking and a delightful balcony that captures the morning sun and overlooks the creek's swimming hole.
Importantly, there is plenty of water access on this property with a constant spring-fed dam, bore, swimming hole, plus 60,000 litres of water storage and a header tank. There is also a mains backed solar hot water system, adding to the self-sufficiency of this property. This peaceful, serene rural paradise, with its tree-lined, clear stone bottom creek that meanders through the property is incredibly private and a great setting to enjoy the many features of this unique property. Beyond the home your very own native forest beckons, inviting you to explore the ridgeline and take in the sweeping ocean views to the east.
The property is set within minutes of the quaint Crabbes Creek village. Brunswick Heads with its iconic Hotel, river and beaches is only minutes away, with Byron Bay a 29 minute-drive and the Gold Coast International Airport an easy 37-minute drive.
The village of Crabbes Creek offers many events throughout the year providing a strong community spirit and fantastic entertainment. Enjoy the best of both worlds at this country property with only 7.5 k to surfing and fishing beaches.
Peace and tranquility guaranteed with this perfect location, this is most assuredly the "idyllic country retreat". This rural lifestyle property offers the savvy investor many exciting possibilities.
Escape to the country, become self-sustainable and enjoy the sounds of silence.
