Privately set within the rolling green hills of Federal, this architecturally reimagined residence offers a rare sense of calm, craftsmanship and seclusion - just moments from the heart of the Byron hinterland. Rebuilt to an exceptional standard and thoughtfully influenced by interior architects Handelsmann & Khaw, the home is a study in natural materials, clean lines and effortless indoor-outdoor connection. Warm blackbutt timber floors, cedar feature walls, curated textures and a restrained palette create a space that feels both grounded and refined - a true retreat from the everyday.

Set on 1,055sqm with sweeping valley outlooks, the property delivers an enviable level of privacy rarely found so close to the village. Expansive living zones flow seamlessly outdoors, where a sunlit magnesium pool and surrounding landscape invite long afternoons and slow living. At its heart, the kitchen anchors the home as both a functional workspace and a gathering place - designed for connection, entertaining and daily life in equal measure. Each of the four bedrooms offers a quiet, restorative atmosphere, while the overall layout has been carefully considered to balance openness with retreat.

Beyond its aesthetic appeal, the home is thoughtfully future-proofed for modern living - fully electric and underpinned by a robust 12kW solar system and 13kWh Tesla Powerwall, enabling a more self-sufficient, sustainable lifestyle. This is a home that transcends the typical Federal offering - not simply renovated, but completely reimagined with intention and integrity. A sanctuary where design, landscape and lifestyle come together in a way that feels both elevated and deeply liveable. Moments to Federal village, and within easy reach of Byron Bay's beaches, cultural scene and Ballina airport, this is hinterland living at its most compelling.
