Totally Self-Sustainable Country Lifestyle Retreat - Burringbar, NSW.
Discover a rare sanctuary of privacy and self-sufficient living on over 5 acres in the Burringbar hinterland, Far North Coast NSW, with a flood-free home offering comfort, tranquillity and a lifestyle most only dream of, with sustainable infrastructure in place and potential for income (STCA), ready for its next family to embrace a nature-connected way of life.
From the moment you arrive, the property feels peaceful and secluded. A 30-year-old rainforest of endangered species surrounds the private creek, creating a cool, sheltered microclimate that attracts birdlife and ensures total privacy. Paddocks, gardens and rainforest coexist within a fenced boundary, forming a self-sustaining ecosystem.
The home features wraparound verandahs and a 7x6m covered entertainment deck overlooking the pool and paddocks - perfect for long lunches or quiet mornings watching wallabies. Inside, recent upgrades include a brand-new kitchen with Miele and Neff appliances, new bathroom and flooring, energy-efficient lighting, ceiling fans, a cosy fireplace and soaring ceilings. With seamless indoor-outdoor flow, the home blends modern comfort with a resort-style lifestyle.
The property is powered by an advanced 8kW hybrid solar system with 26 panels, four new lithium batteries, and grid-backup capability ensuring reliable, cost-effective energy. Water security is exceptional, with a spring-fed dam, freshwater creek, well and multiple rainwater tanks totalling over 60,000 litres, providing long-term sustainability and peace of mind.
Enjoy year-round leisure in the heated 8x4m inground concrete magnesium pool, with a covered pool house, or unwind around the outdoor fire pit, perfect for entertaining or relaxing under the stars.
For those passionate about sustainable living, creativity or self-sufficiency, the property includes 26 garden beds and a 5x4m greenhouse, while a newly built 12x9m powered Colourbond farm shed with remote access offers ample shelving and flexible space for tools, equipment or hobbies. The land also accommodates 10 healthy, productive chickens for fresh eggs and plenty of room for horses and cattle, complete with water sources on fertile, flat land.
A council-approved, self-contained studio/office offers complete privacy and versatility - ideal as a standalone space for remote work, a home business or creative pursuits.
All of this is located just minutes from the charming village of Burringbar with its cafe, general store and the Northern Rivers Rail Trail, and within easy reach of Wooyung, South Golden Beach, Brunswick Heads and the wider Tweed Coast.
This is more than a home. It is a private, self-sustaining retreat that blends comfort, creativity and sustainable living in one carefully considered package. For anyone seeking peace, privacy and purposeful living, this is a rare opportunity to secure one of the region's most unique lifestyle properties.
