EMBRACING TRANQUILITY AND CELEBRATING CELESTIAL MAJESTY AT 'HIDDEN VALLEY' Nestled amidst the gentle caress of the first rays of the morning sun in Australia, 'Hidden Valley' stands as a truly unparalleled sanctuary, spanning over 95.98 hectares. This pristine ancient property holds within its embrace some of Australia's most culturally significant and closely guarded secrets, inviting those who seek to witness its stories and uncover the depths of its mysteries.
Situated at the base of the majestic Wollumbin Rock Face (formerly Mount Warning), 'Hidden Valley' claims its place as the highest property on the mountain, featuring expansive flat plateaus rarely found in mountainous terrain and sheltered by Wollumbin Ridge (The Caterpillar) to the East. Comprising three separate titles, the property offers virgin soil and water opportunities, is a haven for rare and endangered species, harbours cultural and spiritually significant tales, and exists entirely off the grid.
The distinctive plateau, complemented by a dramatic mountain backdrop, not only provides an ideal private living retreat but also fosters its microclimate, offering a unique shelter from the elements. The main access road, recently resurfaced at a cost of $500,000 ensures seamless entry, while a secondary access road to the North can be activated exclusively in the event of an emergency.
Completely off the grid, the property relies on solar panels, battery storage, and backup generators for electricity. Natural bores and creek water, filtered through ancient volcanic soil, offer pristine water supply. Ample rainwater, sourced from 40,000L tanks, supports the gardens and household needs. The nutrient-rich soil, a result of the property's volcanic nature, supports flourishing food gardens.
Extensive environmental initiatives, including a $400,000 investment in forest farming and erosion prevention, contribute to the property's ecological balance.
Conveniently located just 65km from Byron Bay, 45 minutes from Cabarita Surf Beach and 45 min to Gold Coast International Airport, 'Hidden Valley' offers a serene escape while remaining accessible to local amenities and historic towns.
The property encompasses three residences across three lots, each with its own unique features:
Main Residence: • Two-level, 3-bedroom timber home with a spacious lounge/dining room, combustion heater, and a large master bedroom with a separate office. • Gas cooking, slow combustion stove, and a three-meter-wide veranda overlooking magnificent gardens.
2nd Residence: • Large 3-bedroom rendered block home with hardwood floors, a spacious lounge room with an open fireplace, and a separate dining/kitchen area. • Commanding views to Springbrook from the large kitchen windows and verandah.
3rd Residence: • In need of repair, currently unliveable, providing potential for a third structure on the property.
This unique property offers diverse possibilities, catering to various interests:
• A potential redevelopment for those seeking to establish a high-end, distinctive resort or retreat, tapping into the burgeoning spiritual tourism market while honouring the property's significance. • Preservation enthusiasts looking to safeguard the property's rich natural, historical, and cultural heritage. • Residential redevelopment opportunities, allowing for the creation of an extraordinary personal residence or subdividing the property for resale.
