Historic 'Shildon', located on a picturesque near level 5 acres offers a reminder of past days by retaining many of its original features. French doors open to wide verandahs, 12 foot high ceilings, wide teak floorboards, white beech internal lining and red cedar features. The external walls are mixed hardwood with all timbers sourced from the old Clunes sawmill.

This homestead is set amongst lush, tropical landscaped gardens combined with level  lawn areas bounded by dry stone rock walls and garden. They provide privacy and a welcoming and relaxing environment as well as a great place for parties.
 
There are several living and sitting areas, three double bedrooms and two bathrooms. A child's nursery is adjacent to one bedroom and an ensuite and dressing room off the master bedroom.  The large open plan kitchen flows to a generous dining area with folding doors to covered entertaining deck. The majestic view from these spaces overlooks farmland and beyond to Nightcap National Park. In addition to the home there is a freestanding office, an artist's studio with ample light and very generous workshop, garaging and storage areas.

This property has been tightly held with only five owners since construction 128 years ago. For almost a century it was operated as a dairy, pig and then cattle farm by one family. The current owners are reluctantly downsizing after creating some unique and beautiful landscaping over the last 18 years. The property is offering a lifestyle combined with the best aspects of Byron hinterland living. There are five gently sloping acres divided into three paddocks: the house/garden area, an open paddock for a pony or two which then backs onto an area of dedicated rainforest, lovingly regenerated and featuring a spring fed creek.

- History combined with luscious grounds so rarely available
- Character, charm and appeal wrapped in one
- Wonderful acreage enjoying all day sun
- Rainforest and creek backs onto reserve land for ensured privacy 
- Eureka Primary school 4 mins drive, school buses to Lismore and Bangalow
- Clunes 3-minute drive, Bangalow 12 mins and Byron Bay only 28 mins

"Shildon" Circa 1896
A beautiful property with a great history

The tiny sleepy village of Eureka sits in the heart of the beautiful hinterland of Byron Bay. It enjoys a feeling of being far away from the rest of the world, yet it is only a five minute drive to Federal village with its wonderful general store and bottle shop and great cafes, and 10 minutes to Bangalow with its cafes, shops, restaurants and pub.

Nightcap Cottage is a little gem, so often sought but rarely found, nestled on a low maintenance residential sized 740sqm block with stunning, expansive views (almost 270 degrees) overlooking the lush rolling hills to Minyon Falls and Nightcap National Park.  The views are captured from a large, covered wrap-around verandah which also provides an extended living and entertaining area. 

This very well-presented and cared for character timber cottage, featuring high ceilings, polished timber floors and with excellent natural light, creates a relaxed environment in a rural setting without the work of acreage property. It's ideally suited for a weekend getaway, holiday rental or a permanent home for the next lucky owners.
