183 Whian Whian Road Whian Whian NSW 2480

We are excited to welcome Whian Whian's 'Bella Kiora ' to the market for the first time in over 70 years. Passed down through the current owner's family, this Circa 1915's homestead stands proudly upon the land, with a north eastern aspect and pleasant views across the property.

"Kiora" as it was originally named, was built by the 'Leu' family with timber sourced and milled from the property. It is apparent from old newspaper articles, that the home was the hub of the social scene in the area. With local tennis matches, fancy dress dances, Masquerade Balls and many other successful social evenings. One of the more memorable evenings was organised to help further the local nominee for the "Queen of the Fair ". The evening involved Waltzing competitions, an exquisite supper followed by both Euchre and Ping Pong tournaments, which were all keenly contested.
The current owners have respectfully renovated the home, retaining many of the original features from the era. High ceilings, polished timber floors, ornate timber fretwork and original patterned and coloured windows throughout. The bathroom has been tastefully renovated complete with a claw-foot bath. Blending a modern style with the past. The designer kitchen offers modern appliances, stone benchtops, an island bench and ample storage. The kitchen incorporates the large covered alfresco area and is perfect for entertaining family and friends. The loungeroom is simply superb, with full length windows that frame the view from within. With a northern aspect, this room is bathed in sunlight and warmth on those winter days. You will find it hard to leave as you snuggle up with a good book and your favourite cuppa. There is ample space around the house for the the veggie gardens, chooks and a variety of citrus and fruit trees. The shedding is certainly impressive. There are two sheds, the 14.3m X 8.6m main shed offers 14.3m X 8.6m of storage plus an additional lunch room with bathroom. Perfect for cars, machinery, the boat or caravan and the second machinery shed with carport for additional gear if required. The solar systems and solar hot water will assist with the rising costs of living. The property also offers a near new tiny home providing additional income through Airbnb or accommodation for family & friends when they stay over. It is privately positioned within the orchard with a north east aspect and views. The large covered verandah is perfect for relaxing whilst taking in the views. You would delight in taking advantage of the open-air bath. Ideal for a long soak and a glass of bubbles. The firepit will be perfect on a winters night as you take in the sights and sounds of the property.
The orchard offers further income with approx. 2400 mature macadamia trees. The orchard is a manageable size for the owner operator. The varieties are high yielding and with above average kernel recovery ensuring higher than average returns per kilo. The property has a 17meg irrigation license for when the need arises. There are 2 internal creeks and Rocky Creek forming the boundary on the eastern side. Sub-tropical rainforest lines the creek with two other pockets of rainforest within the orchard.
"Bella Kiora" is located close to the popular Whian Whian falls, swimming holes. Many of the region's other hotspots are an easy drive, such as Byron Bay, Federal, Eureka, Clunes, Eltham, The Channon, Nimbin and Minyon Falls. You can also be at the Byron Bay Ballina airport within 50 minutes.
