Remote island estate is 1400km away from civilisation

This hidden gem is located in one of Australia’s most far-flung corners, and is more than a thousand kilometres away from the nearest city. 

A set of two luxury villas on five acres of pristine land is up for sale on Norfolk Island, one of the most remote territories in Australia. 

The island is 1456km east of Byron Bay, a tiny dot of green in the middle of the South Pacific Ocean. 

Only 2100 people call the island home – most of them long-term residents whose families have lived here for generations. 

It’s an otherworldly place where cows roam free and traffic lights are non-existent. 

Now, a luxury development of two high-end villas has hit the market for $2.25 million.

Clad in sultry black corrugated metal, the buildings are an architectural nod to the island’s black volcanic cliffs. 

From every room are panoramic views over rolling hills to the Pacific Ocean beyond. 

At the heart of each house is a double-height living room with herringbone oak floors, custom fireplaces, and floor-to-ceiling windows. 

The bathrooms are fitted with oversized bathtubs carved out of stone and generous his-and-hers sinks. 

Outside, each property has its own magnesium pool with spectacular views of the coast. 

Each house comes fully furnished – a major bonus in a location where shipping rarely comes cheap. 

The lucky buyer will also receive two Volkswagen Tiguans, an eight-seater luxury Mercedes Valente, and a private golf cart. 

“Glencar Luxury Villas, built to the highest standards, offer a rare blend of luxurious living with the flexibility to either occupy both villas, or reside in one while potentially leasing the other as a 5-star holiday rental,” the listing reads.
