BYRON BAY - David Bowie was inspired to re-write his 1983 hit China Girl during a two week stay on these stunning 4.56 hectare Wagawn property just inside the New South Wales border to Queensland. The sprawling 619 sq metre Nurimbah homestead, built around the original 1883 house, offers four en- suite bedrooms, unmatchable 270 degree views, a saltwater swimming pool purpose-built stables for four horses with a tack room, as well as parking for seven vehicles - together with the music shed where Bowie wrote the lyrics on the wall. Perched on an old stock route at 500m above sea level on the caldera of the extinct Tweed Volcano, Wagawn catches Australia's first light with its 70 km views as the sun rises over the Pacific Ocean and has views of World Heritage National Parks of Springbrook and Mt Warning - with three more national parks close by. Zoned Rural 1 this totally private eerie is redolent with commercial possibilities - an exclusive eco-lodge, boutique farm or brewery/distillery utilising the 22 million litres of pristine mountain water available each year to use under two water licences. A total of 250,000 litres of water can be stored across 6 tanks for this "off the grid" opportunity It's all in the water, says Linda Catelan, who is moving to nearby Murwillumbah after 25 years on the property, crediting it with her good health and regular compliments about her youthful good looks. "It is the cleanest water in Australia high in minerals and with perfect pH levels I truly believe it has been the secret to my good health. The property is completely private you cannot see any neighbours and it's the perfect place for the peace and tranquillity which has also helped to nurture me," Catelan said. The music shed was renovated by previous owners unfortunately removing Bowie's lyrics from the walls but added that she had spent many hours recording songs with her brothers, she added. The shed is separate to the main house, luxuriously renovated and upgraded only ten years ago by Catelan and her late husband to feature New Guinea Rosewood timber for the bespoke cabinet work Mongolian black marble for benchtops and Miele kitchen and laundry. A full security CCTV system protects the home from every angle and the design of the homestead celebrates the nature that surrounds it with dozens of doors and windows that create the natural breezeways. The property is home to two horses and a camel that Catelan describes as "the perfect lawnmowers" and could be part of the package for the right buyer "I am sure that the next custodian of Wagawn - which means crow's nest in the local indigenous language - will be here for many decades. It's just a wonderful place, on a clear day you can see the lighthouse on Cape Byron, Australia's eastern tip." The property is just a 20 minute drive to the thriving river town Murwillumbah only 45 minutes from both Coolangatta International Airport and the buzzing hub of Byron Bay and 10 minutes away is the picturesque village of Chillingham with its terrific general store and post office and a primary school.
