Set amongst the rolling hills of Goolmangar against a breathtaking rural backdrop, Ponderosa circa 1898 is a timeless Northern Rivers retreat offering peace, privacy, and an idyllic country lifestyle across more than 11 acres of usable land, perfectly suited to horses, hobby farming, or relaxed acreage living.
Beautifully preserved, the three-bedroom Federation residence dating back to the late 1800s is framed by established trees, flourishing gardens, and the timeless charm of a classic white picket fence, creating a warm and welcoming first impression upon arrival.
Rich in period character, the home showcases polished timber floorboards, soaring ceilings, traditional VJ panelling, a cosy fireplace, fully ducted air conditioning, and a full-length sunroom. A charming country-style kitchen connects seamlessly to the open-plan living and dining spaces, flowing onto covered verandahs and entertaining areas that overlook the picturesque gardens and surrounding countryside.
Further enhancing the property is a fully self-contained studio complete with kitchen and bathroom, an expansive garage and barn, an original dairy bale, sparkling in-ground swimming pool, established rose gardens, and a private rainforest sanctuary. A variety of established fruit and nut trees include avocado, mango, lemon, mandarin, guava, pecan, and passionfruit, while an easement to the creek provides additional access to water supply.
Offering a rare combination of heritage charm, versatile acreage, and lifestyle appeal, Ponderosa circa 1898 is ideally positioned just five minutes from The Channon, 15 minutes to Lismore, and approximately 60 minutes to Byron Bay.
