Occupying a commanding ridgeline position on approximately 7 acres adjoining Mount Jerusalem National Park, this exceptional property offers a rare combination of space, privacy and an extraordinary natural setting. Comprising four separate dwellings, the property is positioned to capture expansive north-facing views across the surrounding ranges, extending towards the Queensland border ranges, Mount Nullum and Mount Chowan. Each building has been thoughtfully designed with passive solar principles, making the most of the winter sun while allowing natural airflow and cooling through the warmer months.

The grounds are equally impressive, with an extensive established fruit orchard producing a remarkable variety of fruit including wax jambu, cherry guavas, avocados, banana and Bowen mangoes, macadamia nuts, tamarillo, jackfruit, grapefruit and pawpaw. Throughout the property, a diverse collection of outstanding cacti, euphorbia, rare palms, Alcantarea and cycads adds to the botanical appeal, while approximately an acre of native Hoop Pine farm forestry provides an established timber resource and a naturally fire-retardant species. Numerous rock wall features add texture, character and a strong connection to the surrounding landscape.

With four dwellings, extensive grounds and a unique position bordering national park, this is a property that offers genuine flexibility for family living, extended family, guests or a range of lifestyle uses. The combination of north-facing views, considered passive solar design, productive gardens and established plantings creates a distinctive rural retreat where the natural environment is an integral part of everyday life.

Properties like this don't come up often. This is a genuine sanctuary for anyone drawn to off-grid living, where your own tank water, wood fires and compost systems mean the land looks after you as much as you look after it, without sacrificing the comfort of three considered, well-built homes and decades of established gardens. And despite that sense of total escape, everyday life is never far away. Mullumbimby is a scenic sixteen-minute drive down the valley, Main Arm Upper Public School sits right in the local community, and the crystal-clear swimming holes of Hell Hole Falls in Mount Jerusalem National Park are just up the road, a well-kept local secret most visitors never find. Gold Coast Airport is about an hour away, so when you do want the outside world, it's an easy trip. If a private, elevated, self-sufficient rural retreat like this sounds like what you've been searching for, come and see it for yourself.
