1 Tumbulgum Road

This is your opportunity to secure the very few true riverside properties in Murwillumbah. If only the walls could talk, as this iconic Murwillumbah landmark building would have a few tales to tell from the 120 years of her existence. Originally the home of the Skinner & Lowe ferries Captain Frank Lowe, where he could keep a watchful eye on the weather with the sweeping, direct views of our magnificent Tweed River right from the rear of the home. For the last 40 years, this distinctive property has offered a place of rest to many a weary traveler and is best known as the quirky Murwillumbah Guesthouse or YHA, which has successfully operated since 1980. Currently split into two separate living quarters, with the Guest House offering five double bedrooms, plus two single bedrooms and three separate bathrooms. A large separate kitchen with ample cooking facilities and prep area leads through to the communal dining/living room. The access to the downstairs area of the Managers Quarters is through the office while delivering one-bedroom / sleepout, own kitchen, and living room with own bathroom & WC. A communal laundry is also shared on this level. Up the spiral staircase, the huge Master bedroom offers a private sanctuary away from Guests. Beautifully positioned on an approx. 1313 M2 river bend block, the low maintenance grounds surrounding this rambling old residence also offers a secure, detached garage along with an enormous covered entertaining area with a concrete staircase directly down to the river. While this is a unique riverfront property, the TSC flood maps indicate that it is set high & dry and is well above flood level. Enjoy the cooling river breezes after you have enjoyed an easy 500 meter walk to the thriving Murwillumbah CBD with its eclectic array of cafes/restaurants/galleries/entertainment venues. Great to continue "as is" or convert to a luxury B & B and capitalise on the fact that it is only 800 meters to the start of the Tweed Valley Rail Trail which has commenced construction and is due to be finished in December 2022, or upgrade this truly unique property into the grandest house on the Tweed.
