About this property

Located approximately 10km North of Kyogle at Kilgra, this exceptional historic property spans 10 acres and offers a wealth of charm and potential. The original 'Wyangarie' homestead dates back to the 1840s, constructed by the Bundock family, with a significant addition added in the 1970s. Architecturally significant, the homestead and its grounds serve as a rare surviving example of an original squatter's station. It stands as a direct testament to the earliest European exploration and settlement in the Richmond Valley, situated between the Razor Back and Tooloom ranges. The property exemplifies an 1840s homestead and has maintained a continuous association with pastoral activities. The Bundock family, principal owners until 1898, played a prominent role in the district and were highly regarded by the local community. Historically, the estate covered up to 28,000 hectares around 1867, with much of it subdivided into 200-250 acre lots by the early 1900s. Today, the homestead sits on a manageable 4 hectares. Perched on a gentle knoll, the homestead faces a broad flat plain, beyond which lie the Richmond River and the hills of the Tweed Range. The property features a mix of native remnant eucalypts and exotic plantings, including Moreton Bay Fig Trees, Hoop Pine, Bunya, Burdekin Plum, and Himalayan Cypresses. The homestead was strategically positioned to avoid flooding, catch prevailing winds, and maximize scenic views. The original section of the home, built with rendered locally made bricks and a galvanised iron roof, includes a kitchen with exposed brickwork, gas cooking, and a butler's pantry. It also features a separate office and adjoining bedroom. Two spacious living rooms, connected by solid timber doors, boast high ceilings and fireplaces. A large, covered verandah offers spectacular rural vistas. The 1970s addition is linked via a breezeway/dining area and includes another living room with a fireplace, family bathroom, laundry, and two large bedrooms with ceiling fans. An expansive covered entertaining area adjoins the carport, complemented by a double lockup shed for ample storage. The property also benefits from a bore for water supply. This charming heritage property is filled with original character and is ready for restoration to its former glory. It presents a rare opportunity for renovators who appreciate historic features, offering a unique country lifestyle in a peaceful setting.
