Welcome to “Balun” . Imagine waking to the chorus of kookaburras, sipping your morning coffee on the verandah as mist rises from the gently flowing river, knowing your home is powered entirely by the sun. This is more than a property – it's a lifestyle transformation waiting to unfold on 1.76ha (4 acres) of pristine Tweed Valley paradise.
Escape the grid, embrace freedom, and discover the peace that comes with true self-sufficiency. This architecturally designed retreat offers the ultimate blend of rural privacy and modern comfort, where your family can flourish, your creativity can soar, and every day feels like a holiday.

• Listen to the kookaburras announce each new day like they're laughing at how lucky you are
This isn't just acreage – it's your family's adventure playground, your entertaining paradise, your daily dose of wonder.
Feel your shoulders drop and your breath deepen the moment you pass through the redwood gated entry. Surrounded by regenerating native vegetation and a protected riparian corridor, wildlife thrives here – and so will you. Morning walks along the creek. Afternoon birdwatching from the verandah.

Complete privacy. Profound peace. Pure potential.
