Powderfinger Lead Guitarist Sells Hinterland Sanctuary
LOCAL REAL ESTATE NEWS
A home fit for Australian rock royalty is now off the market, with Powderfinger’s lead guitarist Darren Middleton selling his six-acre property at Farrants Hill in the Northern Rivers region.
The six-bedroom masterpiece, which enjoys ocean and hinterland views, sold for $3.5 million.
Middleton bought the property at 22 Farrants Road, Farrants Hill in 2021 and invested more than $1 million dollars on renovations.
The property was sold by Coastal Property Collective agents Greg Costello and Gus D’Anton.
Mr Costello said the property was purchased by a young family.
“They are relocating from the Sunshine Coast,” Mr Costello said.
Enjoying a tranquil hinterland setting, the unique home features soaring cathedral ceilings, a fireplace with a limestone feature wall, oak cabinetry, Taj Mahal Quartzite benchtops and a custom made Italian ‘Ilve’ oven.
“It has ocean views over Cabarita and Hastings,” he said.
“It is pretty amazing. It’s built out of materials used in the Teneriffe Woolstores in Brisbane. It’s got all these beautiful timbers running throughout the house.”
Middleton is relocating to Melbourne to be closer to family.
Middleton was Powderfinger’s lead guitarist and songwriter from 1991-2010
