A prestigious property by any measure, “Tyumba” is both a commercially successful Macadamia farm and a beautifully developed and maintained, historical property to call home.
The main residence is elegantly designed by the current owners to capture an abundance of natural light and features a host of quality contemporary finishes throughout, such as the beautiful timber flooring featured in all the living rooms.
The impressive entrance hall opens out into a formal sitting room with high ceilings and a dual sided brick hearth, that also serves the adjoining music room that overlooks the pretty gardens.
The well-thought out design and contemporary floorplan provides the new owners with multiple living spaces, and a variety of family lifestyle options, especially for impressive entertaining.
The light and airy conservatory entertaining space is grand both by design and in scale with its unique conservatory entertaining space. Complete with an automatic Vergolas opening roof that runs the full width of the house and operates – depending on your choice and the prevailing weather.
Impeccably maintained, the main residence has four spacious bedrooms, each with their own ensuite bathroom, while the master bedroom features an ensuite with an elegant marble vanity and flooring, plus a lovely, cast iron bath.
The chef’s kitchen would impress even the most enthusiastic home entertainer, with its spacious double oven, two dishwashers, a walk-in pantry and quality stone benchtops. The dining options at “Tyumba” are numerous, including formal dining, al fresco dining or casual dining in the kitchen.
The upstairs space features a spacious, double study that is utilised as an impressive home office that is accessed by a stylishly designed timber stairway.
The home is fitted out with Allventilation throughout (a dehumidifying and dust removal system), plus there are split A/C systems in the Kitchen/Family living areas and the upstairs office space. As well, there are ceiling fans throughout, plus the home is equipped with both gas hot water and solar power systems.
For the extended family, guests or as a commercial holiday accommodation option, there is a spacious two bedroom, fully self-contained apartment with a split AC system. The separate accommodation is connected by a covered portico to the main residence.
The home is surrounded by beautifully manicured lawns and well-tended gardens. The lush, green sweeping lawns and mature trees create an ambience of genteel, country living – on a grand scale!
With 80 acres (approx. 32 Hectares) of rich volcanic land “Tyumba” boasts 7500 well-maintained Macadamia trees. This is a Macadamia farm of integrity, with Macadamia trees ranging in age from 16-32 years old and producing on average, 100 tons of macadamias per year.
To support the commercial farm, there are 4 sheds, 3 phase power, 4 head dehusker, 2 delivery hoppers plus an all-weather road to the hub of the farm. There are also small areas of protected rainforest, individual rainforest trees and a pretty waterway that runs through the property. Importantly, there is also a water licence on the permanent creek and a bore at the main shed.
This is one of the best managed Macadamia farms in the Northern Rivers region, one that has been well planned and beautifully maintained to protect continued strong production and commercial viability well into the future. Full Machinery list and comprehensive figures available on request.
For those interested in history, “Tyumba” is also home to an historic railway station waiting room – on the old Booyong to Ballina line. Once a lifeline for the historical dairy farming region, Tyumba, Teven, and Ballina were the three stations on the railway line. Today, the historic Tyumba railway station waiting room remains preserved on the property.
Located an easy and pretty, 15-minute country drive to the beachside village of Lennox Head and 20 minutes to the iconic coastal township of Byron Bay, “Tyumba” on Kirklands Lane offers the best of all worlds.
