24 James Street

Hidden away in the rolling green hills behind The Byron Hinterland, Toorallie is the kind of property that stirs something the moment you arrive. The journey begins as the gates open to a winding 500 metre sealed driveway lined with towering Pencil Pines, evoking the romance of the Tuscan countryside. As the road climbs gently toward the hilltop homestead, the world begins to fall away behind you. The air feels cleaner, the pace slower, and the views stretch endlessly across the mountains and fertile valleys beyond. Built to an exceptional standard, the substantial full brick residence is a home of warmth, elegance, and timeless country luxury. Sunlight pours through expansive living spaces, while the conservatory captures breathtaking mountain vistas that change colour with the passing day. Whether itâs mist rolling across the hills in the morning or golden sunsets enjoyed with a glass of wine in the evening, every window frames a moment worth pausing for. At the heart of the home, the gourmet kitchen has been designed for gathering family dinners, long lunches, and celebrations that spill effortlessly from indoors to out. Every detail has been thoughtfully considered, from the premium appliances to the stunning designer glass chandelier extractor that makes its own statement of style. The five beautifully appointed bedrooms continue the sense of comfort and retreat, none more impressive than the master suite, a private sanctuary complete with luxurious ensuite and an expansive dressing room with custom-built robes. A separate guest wing with its own entrance and bathroom offers flexibility for extended family, visitors, or the potential for self-contained accommodation (STCA). Beyond the home, the land itself is simply spectacular. Approximately 24.42 hectares (60.34 acres) of rich, usable country unfolds around you a landscape designed equally for adventure, relaxation, and productivity. Ride horses through open paddocks, explore on motorbikes or buggies, run cattle, or simply enjoy the freedom and space that only a property of this scale can provide. The huge serpentine dam feels more like a private lake, complete with peaceful picnic spots along the waterâs edge, while creek frontage and a picturesque waterfall add to the propertyâs natural beauty and serenity. Extensive infrastructure, a substantial water licence, large three-phase pump, town water connection and the 200sqm shed ensure the property is as practical as it is beautiful. Yet despite its incredible privacy, Toorallie remains wonderfully connected to the lifestyle that makes this region so sought after. Breakfast at the café in Clunes is just 16 minutes away, while vibrant Byron Bay with its iconic beaches, restaurants, and boutiques is within easy reach for long lunches and afternoons by the ocean. Daily flights from Ballina to Sydney make city connections effortless. Toorallie is more than a home. Itâs a private world of beauty, freedom, and possibility a place where luxury living and the dream of a true hinterland lifestyle come together perfectly. Private inspections are welcome by appointment.
