Old Byron Bay Road, Newrybar: timber pavilions, garden and pool

Newrybar · Northern Rivers

Old Byron Bay Road

A home that opens to the hinterland

Set high above the rolling Newrybar hinterland, this home gathers timber, stone and long views into one calm, grounded retreat. Deep eaves shelter generous decks, and every room turns toward the light and the landscape.

Engaged by Archimages Architecture, we redesigned the home to open it to the landscape, with floor-to-ceiling glazing, blackened timber cladding and skillion roofs. Inside, blackbutt joinery curves through the kitchen and living spaces, grounded by limestone and bold black natural stone. Built by Priestley Building, the kitchen received the 2026 Master Builders NSW Northern Excellence Award for kitchen projects.
