Location Location Location!!

Beautifully decorated and maintained to the highest standard this is probably THE most beautiful and conveniently located property in the Tweed Region of Northern NSW - with added bonus of a successful Bed & Breakfast business for part-time income if required.

Welcome to Hillcrest Mountain View Retreat - a multi Tourism Award winning B&B and S/C Cottage which is now offered for sale by the owners who wish to fully retire.

House not quite to your taste? Lay-out is such that it's easily changed. Need more income? there's room for expansion. Want more land? Neighbour is willing to discuss lease or boundary adjustment for more acreage .. but something you WILL NOT find elsewhere is this stunning location with views that have to be seen to be believed. Set high on a hill, well back from a tarmac sealed no-through road, not too far from town and with the most magnificent views in every direction ... they just aren't making any more of these!

Located in prestigious Upper Crystal Creek, just off a main tourist drive in the fast-growing Tweed Coast hinterland, only 12 mins easy drive from the centre of Murwillumbah, 35 minutes from Gold Coast airport, 75 minutes from Brisbane and 45 minutes from Byron Bay, Hillcrest has good established turn-over but still offers room for expansion (with more cottages, “glamping” tents, provision of evening meals and/or catering for weddings) for someone who wants more than a relaxed part-time workload.

Whilst the large (60 square) main house is beautifully decorated and maintained to the highest standard, If the current lay-out doesn't quite suit you the building floor-plan is such that your new home can easily be reverted to a 4 bedroom, 4 bathroom family home with the added bonus of a separate 1 bedroom/ensuite self-contained Cottage, set in its own private rain-forest garden approx 50m from the main house, giving the larger family a total of 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.

With properties close by selling for over $2 million, Hillcrest is competitively priced to sell well below replacement value and is well worth the $1.350 million asking price without taking the business component into account - so if you're looking for a semi-retirement lifestyle business this is the bargain of the century!

Centrally located to a host of activities and beauty spots
Hillcrest enjoys a unique position of seclusion without isolation.
An ideal business opportunity those seeking a "tree-change" to the Northern Rivers with established income
or a perfect family home in a peaceful but central location

Currently owner-operated by a husband and wife team with no extra staff required other than a casual masseuse, Hillcrest enjoys massive internet exposure with extensive editorial and listings on too many to list accommodation directories. Print and internet advertising is in place for both current and future seasons.

Sale price includes fixtures and fittings to guest wing, laundry, kitchen and cottage, three high ranking retail websites, plus one additional website kept exclusively to track print media advertising; copy of accreditation hand-book and time-limited training if required.
