A Reimagined QLD Estate with World-Class Equestrian Facilities - 40 Donnelleys Road, Ridgewood

Set high in the Noosa Hinterland on 69 picturesque acres, Balleyrinn Farm is the kind of property that comes along once in a generation. A meticulously renovated 1920s Queenslander, a competition-grade indoor arena, a complete suite of equestrian infrastructure, an established macadamia plantation, and views that stretch from the Mary Valley to the coast — all on a single, exceptional title. The character is original. The infrastructure is brand new. The setting is breathtaking. // The Home — A Queenslander Reborn The circa-1920s residence retains every ounce of its original charm — high ceilings, VJ and panel board walls, French doors, casement and double-hung windows, wraparound verandahs and decking that wrap the home in light and outlook. A thoughtful, top-to-bottom renovation has brought it firmly into the present without losing a thread of its heritage soul. Inside, a formal entry leads to four bedrooms, two bathrooms, a large updated kitchen, separate living and dining, and a sitting room — generous, light-filled, and built for family life. The master suite is a true retreat with an ensuite featuring a deep clawfoot bath. Large new windows draw the gardens and views inside, while reverse cycle air-conditioning, ceiling fans, and 6kW of solar power keep year-round living effortless. From every verandah, the outlook is extraordinary — including one of the most magnificent Poinciana trees in the district, framed perfectly from the kitchen and dining. // The Equestrian Facilities — Genuinely World-Class This is where Balleyrinn Farm stands apart from anything else on the market. The current custodians have built a complete, competition-grade equestrian set-up of a calibre rarely seen outside dedicated training centres: Olympic-sized indoor arena (60m x 20m) set within a natural amphitheatre overlooking the Mary Valley Premium Martin Collins waxed fibre surface — the surface of choice at international competition venues Angled wooden kick wall and full equestrian lighting for evening rides and events Stables, day yards and a round yard Multiple fully-fenced paddocks ready for rotation, turnout and agistment Tack and feed room and wash bay Sound system and event-ready infrastructure Whether you ride competitively, agist, train, or simply want the very best home for your own horses, the work is done — and done to a standard you'd struggle to replicate from scratch. An established equestrian business currently operates on site — arena hire, agistment, lessons and events under the Balleyrinn Farm brand — and is available for the next custodian to continue, expand, or wind back as they choose. // The Land — 69 Acres of Productive Hinterland The property is accessed via a tranquil avenue of majestic Hoop Pines, creating a breathtaking sense of arrival and privacy. Three dams, extensive fencing, and approximately 200 mature macadamia trees — retained from the original farm — provide a beautiful connection to the property's rich agricultural history. With expansive usable land, the property offers endless potential for cattle, horses, livestock, or boutique agricultural pursuits alongside an exceptional rural lifestyle. A private bridle trail meanders throughout the farm — winding through rolling hills, open pasture, shaded pockets of timber, and the old macadamia orchard. As access across broader trail networks continues to change, having your own dedicated riding trails entirely within the property boundary is increasingly rare and genuinely special. It is a wonderful training and conditioning asset, and one of the most enjoyable aspects of daily life on the property. // Supporting Infrastructure 15m x 7m machinery shed 9m x 7.5m workshop 5 rainwater tanks (100,000L combined capacity) 3 dams Carport adjacent to home 3-phase power 6kW solar Direct line-of-sight to Carters Ridge NBN tower and Black Mountain mobile tower Bitumen road to the front gate; school bus past the gate Additional farming equipment available by negotiation. // The Location Ridgewood sits in the prized Noosa Shire hinterland — quiet, green, and surrounded by some of the best riding country in South East Queensland. Cooroy is 15 minutes away. Noosa Heads and the world-famous beaches are 35 minutes down the road. You are genuinely in the country — and genuinely close to everything. // A Genuinely Rare Offering A renovated heritage Queenslander. A world-class indoor arena. 69 acres of productive, picturesque land. An established macadamia plantation. A turn-key equestrian business. And views that stop visitors in their tracks. Properties of this calibre, in this shire, with this level of infrastructure and this much heart — simply do not come to market. 40 Donnellys Road has to be seen to be believed.
