SELLINGSPRING SEASON

A 100-year-old stunner and a vintage Murbah charmer

By Jo Kennett

THIS WEEK we have more stunning historic homes full of vintage charm and one of them is an absolute gourmet’s delight with the most amazing variety of fruit, nut and citrus trees.

The beautifully renovated Queenslander at 797 Numinbah Road, Crystal Creek, is over 100 years old but age has not weary’d it, that’s for sure.

It is an absolute showstopper with old world charm alongside all the modern goodies that leave more time for fun.

The home sits on an elevated, fully fenced 5,746 m2 (1.75 acre) lush green block with beautiful big trees.

The north-facing home has 13 foot ceilings, polished timber floors, a full-length verandah with a bull-nose roof, a gorgeous inground pool, four bedrooms, three bathrooms, generous storage spaces, a huge covered outdoor area perfect for entertaining and

lovely landscaped grounds.

The property has an incredible array of established food trees including different types of mandarin, oranges, lemons, lime, pomelo, figs, feijoa, apples, a curry tree, tea, kaffir lime, bananas, grapes, kiwi fruit, jaboticabas, star fruit, chocolate pudding, jackfruit, lychee, mangoes, pawpaws, passion fruit, dragon fruit, pomegranate, pecan, loquat, chestnut, persimmon, bunya nut, blueberries and blackberries.

I’m exhausted and starving just thinking about it. It’s a gourmet cook’s absolute dream come true. There are also irrigated garden beds for fresh veggies and a chicken pen.

Crystal Creek Primary School and the amazing local cafe (BYO) are only 200 metres away in case you want to have a long lunch over a wine or two.

It’s just over nine kilometres from Murwillumbah CBD and 30 from Cabarita Beach, and frankly, I
