Situated in the pristine Upper Orara Valley in the stunning hinterland of Coffs Harbour, Orara Valley Estate is an approximately 54-acre (23.8ha) property with nearly a kilometre of pristine river frontage.

The country estate was designed by renowned Coffs Coast architect Trevor Jamison, and constructed by respected local builder Frank Maione in the 1980s and features luxury Moroccan inspired design details and handmade artisan finishes, with recent renovations by the current owners.

Speaking to LUXURY LIST, Deborah Cullen said the estate provides a perfect balance of country and coastal living. 

“Whilst nestled in the beautiful hinterland region of Upper Orara and stunning views to The Never Never mountains at Bellingen, it is only a 20 minute drive to the beautiful coastline of Coffs Harbour to swim each morning or evening.

An abundance in accommodation and entertaining spaces make this home such a standout. If you are an avid art collector, the proportions and gallery spaces will have you salivating! Meanwhile the indoor and outdoor living spaces provide entertaining in all seasons and temperatures.”

Located on a scenic hilltop alongside the Orara River with expansive 270-degree views across the surrounding mountains, the designer retreat blends holiday lifestyle and forever home.

The sprawling main residence has five bedrooms, three bathrooms, spacious lounge areas, a large chef’s kitchen, spacious living and dining areas, gallery room, outdoor alfresco terrace with a fireplace, with deep covered verandahs which are perfect for outdoor room entertaining all year round. 

The property also boasts expansive equestrian facilities, a resort-sized swimming pool and gym, a state-of-the-art bushfire suppression system, art gallery lighting to showcase your art collection, security, reverse cycle air-conditioning, an oasis-like courtyard, and extensive gardens.

There is a potential income stream, as the property has previously been offered for use as a venue.  Two freestanding villas and a guest apartment over the garage provide plenty of room for family, friends and guests to stay in.

“Orara Valley Estate is already set up for cattle and horses with fencing and infrastructure already invested,” Richard Royle explained to LUXURY LIST. “With over a kilometre of river frontage and rain forest areas, it provides beautiful trail riding opportunities, with picnic spots and private swimming holes along the way.

This is an exciting time for growth in the Coffs Harbour region with new developments and infrastructure currently being implemented. Travel from Sydney by car or plane is so simple and makes part time or full time living here an easy and relaxing option.”

Orara Valley Estate is located an easy 20 minute drive from Coffs Harbour, providing easy access to beaches, shopping, restaurants, cafés, Southern Cross University, TAFE, a world-class marina, a large regional hospital and a busy airport with an average of five services a day to Sydney, daily flights to Melbourne, Brisbane and regional hubs.

With a price guide of $9 million, it is expected that the property will attract interest from both domestic and international buyers. The mid North Coast property market is already seeing an upswing in property demand with the growth of the population of Coffs Harbour of 80,000 increasing.

New infrastructure underway includes a Hollywood style film studio being created by actor and local resident Russell Crowe, plus a new entertainment centre, the Jetty precinct re- development and the Pacific Highway bypass.
