Overview
Escape the conventional life and discover a remarkable property in Nimbin spanning approximately 100 acres of prime grazing land facing north-east, offering exceptional productivity and long-term investment security. This expansive rural estate presents gently sloping to flat terrain, fully cleared to lush pasture and supported by robust fencing renewed over the past 2 to 6 years, enhancing its appeal for immediate agricultural or livestock use.
The property features abundant internal paddocks, facilitating versatile agribusiness operations or livestock management. Currently, it generates a dependable agistment income at $700 per month and sustains approximately 40 breeders, highlighting its income potential.
Central to the estate is a substantial dam boasting stunning views of the iconic Nimbin Rocks, providing a picturesque and serene backdrop. This water body, complemented by a 5-megalitre water license for cropping, dual large dams, an electrical pump system, a concrete header tank, and extensive frontage to a perennial creek, ensures outstanding water security. Such features position the property well for irrigation-intensive farming, crop production, or sustainable agriculture.
Additional infrastructure includes powered machinery and storage sheds with dedicated water tanks, stockyards, historic stables, and a concrete-floored old piggery available for repurposing as storage or other uses. The layout supports diversified activities, including development of secluded tourism or farm stay cabins, capitalizing on Nimbin's reputation as an eco-tourism destination without compromising privacy.
The main residence, a relocated 1913 Queenslander originally an antique shop in Lismore, offers practical and spacious living areas with four bedrooms (including three doubles), two bathrooms, office space, a separate lounge and dining room, and a country-style kitchen. The kitchen is well-equipped featuring stone countertops, a commercial six-burner gas cooktop, wall oven, dishwasher, a large island bench, pantry and traditional heating options including a Rayburn wood heater and gas heaters. The home boasts high ceilings, original timber fretwork, open verandahs, established gardens, and an in-ground swimming pool, further enhanced by a solar hot water system and brand new 10kW solar panels.
Complementing the main home is a charming, rustic cottage converted from the original dairy. This structure has been fully rebuilt, rewired, and reroofed, and it features raked ceilings, a commercial oven, air conditioning, a designer wood burner, its own septic system, separate power meter, and two water tanks (plastic and concrete). A new 6.5kW solar array and external toilet with freshwater lines and pump add independent functionality. There is scope for expansion via additional outdoor features such as an awning. This cottage is situated apart from the main dwelling and has the potential to generate rental income estimated at $420 per week after minor cosmetic improvements.
Strategically situated, the property benefits from sealed scenic roads and school bus access directly to the gate. Located approximately 4.3 kilometers from Nimbin village – known for its organic cafes, hemp embassy, markets, live music, and alternative culture – and within manageable distances to regional centers and amenities including 33 kilometers from Lismore, 45 kilometers to Ballina beaches, and 87 kilometers to Gold Coast Airport, this location merges rural tranquility with accessibility.
