Tucked away in one of Myocum’s most coveted private enclaves, 231 The Manse Road is an enchanting residence that delivers a secluded family sanctuary, increasingly rare in the Byron hinterland. Set well back from the road and framed by established gardens, mature trees and sweeping lawns, the property offers complete privacy and a true sense of calm, while remaining conveniently connected to Byron Bay, Mullumbimby and the region’s finest beaches. From the moment you arrive, the home’s timeless character is undeniable — a beautifully restored Australian classic featuring wrap-around verandahs, decorative gables and a soft coastal palette that feels instantly welcoming.
Designed for relaxed family living and effortless entertaining, the grounds provide the perfect setting for both play and connection. Expansive, level lawns invite endless games of backyard cricket and basketball, while a sparkling heated pool and generous covered entertaining pavilion set the scene for long summer afternoons with friends. Children will delight in the chicken coop, charming cubby-style studio retreat and the freedom to roam, while parents will appreciate the manageable one-acre parcel overlooking neighbouring acreage and a tranquil rainforest backdrop — offering space and serenity without the upkeep. With a separate self-contained studio, multiple living zones and a thoughtfully designed layout, the home balances togetherness with privacy, allowing every member of the family room to grow.
Inside, the home’s heritage soul is immediately apparent. Original features have been beautifully preserved and enhanced through a meticulous renovation — from magnificent stained-glass windows casting jewel-toned light across polished timber floors, to soaring ceilings adorned with VJ panelling and intricate pressed-metal detailing. A classic bay window seat provides the perfect quiet retreat. Modern inclusions, including underfloor heating and cooling, ensure year-round comfort while honouring the home’s authentic charm. At the heart of the residence, the stunning country kitchen combines a farmhouse sink, stone benchtops, timber cabinetry and a striking pressed-tin ceiling, creating a space that is as functional for everyday living as it is inviting for entertaining. This is a home where lasting memories are made and family stories naturally unfold.
