New to the market is this stunning, thoughtfully planned lifestyle property in Kungala, boasting almost one kilometre of serene Orara River frontage. Picturesque, peaceful and highly productive, it offers the perfect balance of recreation and income potential. Ideally positioned just 45 minutes north of Coffs Harbour, 20 minutes south of Grafton and 20 minutes from the popular coastal hub of Arrawarra Beach, it provides an exceptional rural–coastal lifestyle opportunity.
The main residence is positioned to capture a beautiful northeasterly aspect and features three generous bedrooms with built-ins and ceiling fans. The master suite includes an ensuite and walk-in robe. A large enclosed sunroom adjoins all bedrooms, overlooking the pool and flowing seamlessly to the outdoor living area. Additional features include a study nook, an oversized linen press, and a newly renovated main bathroom with a luxurious waterfall shower, freestanding bath and separate toilet.
The newly updated galley kitchen is fitted with a deluxe 110cm European Falcon 6-burner gas cooker with dual oven, Caesarstone benchtops and ample modern storage. A servery connects to the light-filled lounge room, complete with a large combustion fireplace. Widened entryways enhance the flow into the dining area. Both the main home and the adjoining cottage benefit from recently replaced Colorbond roofing.
Outdoor living shines with a salt-chlorinated in-ground pool, overlooked by a newly constructed 7 × 4m undercover merbau timber deck featuring Blackbutt balustrades for seamless indoor–outdoor enjoyment. Established Liquidambar trees provide summer shade, winter sunlight and vibrant autumn colour. The property also includes productive macadamia, fig and finger lime trees and is home to abundant wildlife including bowerbirds, jabirus, brolgas and black cockatoos.
A covered breezeway leads to a fully self-contained, air-conditioned one-bedroom cottage with its own living area, kitchenette and bathroom—ideal for guests or generating passive Airbnb income, with future expansion potential.
The property includes two impressive 200m² Colorbond sheds, both with full concrete slabs and commercial perimeter pallet racking. One shed features a 3 × 18m undercover awning, 6m sliding doors for large vehicle access and an Ascenta 4-tonne car hoist. The second shed includes a 12 × 4m mezzanine with forklift-ready gates and currently houses a successful coffee roasting business, which is available for optional purchase.
A short stroll leads to the breathtaking 900m private stretch of Orara River, ideal for swimming, kayaking and fishing for Australian bass and Eastern cod. A 3ML irrigation licence accompanies the property, with water supplied via both gravity feed and a 50mm centrifugal pump.
The property is fully drought-resilient with more than 130,000L of combined concrete and poly rainwater storage, supported by a recently upgraded pressure pump. Orara River water also services newly installed concrete livestock troughs through an automated polypipe reticulation system.
Currently running 11 head of cattle, the property comfortably carries up to 18. Well-maintained modular steel yards with a crush and loading ramp make livestock handling efficient, and a newly installed fencing system with a central laneway allows for easy stock movement across multiple paddocks.
A profitable garlic cropping operation has been successfully run for the past five years, supported by an efficient irrigation network. This low-effort, high-return enterprise can be continued by the new owners, with relevant machinery available by negotiation.
