Standing proud is this gracious, iconic New Brighton landmark.
A part of our local North Coast history, this coastal Queenslander blends perfectly into the personality and quintessential lifestyle synonymous within the Byron Shire.
Originally established as the Burringbar School House in the early 1900′s this classic traditional residence was moved to its present site almost 30 years ago.
Basking in a Northerly aspect and adjoining nature reserve it is only a short stroll to the idyllic New Brighton beach, river, sports field, weekly Farmers Market, the local General Store and caf.
Within many striking attributes there is a timeless authentic character retained throughout.
11 high ceilings and the original polished hardwood flooring are bounded by broad covered verandahs, where depending on the season one can catch cooling sea breezes or nestle into a warm sunny nook.
The main open plan living incorporates a stainless kitchen with gas cooking and assimilates to a large versatile covered deck featuring a high skillion roof and polished concrete flooring. It acts as a dynamic extension to the living space and is the perfect place to relax and entertain day or night all year round.
There are 4 generous bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, the master with walk in robe and ensuite.
Downstairs there is immense space with secure 4 car parking, an additional bathroom, workshop, office, and plenty of storage.
It is a home immersed within the elements enjoying stunning private aspects into the surrounding native vegetation which provides a haven for abundant birdlife flourishing in their pristine environment.
Of 1012m2 and set amongst rolling lawns, paving and blending into the nature reserve there are fruit trees including mandarin, pawpaw and mango.
There is a stone crafted firepit, exterior shower, rainwater tanks, vegie patches and garden/chook sheds.
A variety of recreational activities and conveniences are at the doorstep with both the beach and river mix catering for almost any water sport. If a more sedate pace of life is preferred, enjoy fresh produce from the weekly Farmers Market, pick up a bottle of wine from the ‘Newy’ General Store or take in a meal at the Yum Yum Tree Caf.
The shopping facilities at Ocean Shores and the vibrant tourist mecca of Brunswick Heads are both within 5-10 minutes drive away respectively.
One of a kind this sanctuary is truly paradise.
Its a genuine peaceful place with a soul, a family home in the true sense.
Embracing the outdoors, it provides that perfect beach side lifestyle.
