Overview

140 Sandy Flat Road

Offered for the first time in 25 years, this cherished multi-generational family estate presents a unique opportunity to acquire a private, resort-style acreage in one of Northern New South Wales' most sought-after coastal hinterland locations. Situated just 10 minutes from Lennox Head and Ballina, and approximately 25 minutes from Byron Bay, this expansive 162-acre property offers a lifestyle defined by tranquility, space, and promising future potential.

Set within a serene valley boasting panoramic views over abundant wetlands, the north-facing original farmhouse is elevated to maximize the stunning landscape vistas. The bright and airy interiors seamlessly flow to a spacious alfresco deck, ideal for entertaining while enjoying the peaceful surroundings.

Designed to accommodate multi-generational living, the estate comprises three separate dwellings thoughtfully positioned to ensure privacy and flexibility. A charming A-frame guest house is nestled among the trees, complemented by a self-contained studio and a workers cottage, providing additional accommodation options. Each dwelling is independently metered and connected to separate water and sewer infrastructure, enhancing autonomy and convenience.

The property is a true lifestyle sanctuary, featuring resort-style amenities such as a swimming pool, a full-sized floodlit tennis court, and well-maintained grassed walking tracks equipped with mains lighting that link all infrastructure. There is ample space for children, chickens, and cattle to roam freely, making it an ideal rural retreat for families seeking modern comforts in a natural setting.

With over 30 fruit trees and an unlimited water supply sourced from tanks, a spring-fed well, and a bore, the land is perfectly suited for cattle, horses, or other livestock. Rolling cleared areas and fertile soil offer excellent grazing potential, while several elevated future house sites provide opportunities to embrace stunning outlooks, including the possibility of ocean views from the property's highest points.

Bordering the Ballina Nature Reserve, the estate is rich in native wildlife, including Brolgas and Jabiru, offering a rare connection to nature while remaining close to coastal conveniences. Importantly, the property lies within a future growth area identified by Ballina Shire Council, presenting exciting development potential, subject to council approval.
