161 Alcorn Road, Knockrow

116-acre property nestled in Byron Bay's thriving hinterland offers potential for development in Australia's most loved tourism region. Currently operating as an award-winning macadamia farm, this luscious property occupies existing infrastructure and extensive acreage, lending itself to future expansion.

In 2007, the James farm was recognised as a carbon-neutral farm, receiving numerous agricultural accolades including Australian Large Farm of the Year and is a top-performer in benchmarking programs by the Department of Agriculture QLD. What really sets this unsullied property apart is its unique connection to the critically endangered Big Scrub Rainforest, once Australia's largest expanse of lowland subtropical rainforest.

Much of this precious ecosystem is now privately owned or inaccessible to the public, making this property's native biodiversity an exceptionally rare Australian beauty. A walk through the stunning property will lead you to the top of Killen Falls, an enchanting waterfall with preserved cave and freshwater swimming hole that is surrounded by ancient Lilly Pilly, Black Bean, and Fig trees.
