FROM COAST TO COUNTRY
Benwerrin — a legacy of love and labour
By Jil Hogan
IN THE rolling hills of Mooball, where the morning mist parts to reveal sweeping views from the valley to the Pacific Ocean, stands Benwerrin, a 200-acre testament to one family’s dedication spanning over seven decades.
The story of Benwerrin, now seeking its next custodian, is a chronicle of Australian rural ingenuity and family legacy.
The story began over 70 years ago when Jack and Lydia Catterall first acquired the property. What started as a humble dairy farm would, through three generations of careful stewardship, evolve into a thriving sugar cane and beef cattle enterprise that stands as one of the Northern Rivers’ most impressive rural estates.
“The property holds countless stories within its walls,” a family member said.
At the heart of many of these tales is John Catterall (known locally as Jack), who, while serving as managing director of Sly Brothers Electric Sawmill in Murwillumbah, helped shape not just Benwerrin but the wider community.
His fingerprints can be found on numerous local landmarks, from the Branding Rail at Murwillumbah Showground to the All Saints Anglican Church.
Despite having no formal building qualifications, Jack’s extraordinary talent for
construction became legendary.
Working alongside his sons, he created many of the structures that still stand proudly on the property today.
roads, new fencing, and multiple farm sheds.
The largest shed, equipped with three-phase power and office quarters, speaks to the property’s commercial potential.
But it’s not just the human-made elements that make Benwerrin special. Nature has blessed this land abundantly. A spring-fed dam provides year-round water security, while historic Bangalow palms stand sentinel over the wetlands and Burringbar Creek.
His appreciation for quality timber is evident throughout — from the hardwood fences and cattle shelters to the exquisite teak floors in the main house and custom-made red cedar furniture that became family heirlooms.
Today, Benwerrin stands as a masterpiece of rural planning and sustainable living. The property has two well-maintained homes, one currently providing rental income, and extensive infrastructure that includes quality bitumen

Location-wise, Benwerrin offers the best of both worlds. While the property feels worlds away from urban bustle, it’s just ten minutes from the pristine Tweed Coast beaches, 30 minutes from Byron Bay, and 30 minutes to Gold Coast Airport.

The village of Mooball, with its iconic Moo Moo Café and Victory Hotel, is within walking distance, while the Northern Rivers Rail Trail passes right by the back entrance.
Perhaps the property’s most captivating feature is its views. Each day begins with the sun rising over the valley and ends with it setting behind Mount Warning — nature’s own light show best enjoyed from either house’s verandah. The majestic fig trees and white fences complete a picture-perfect rural scene that feels lifted from an artist’s canvas.
“Imagine tranquil afternoons walking by the spring-fed dam, listening to birdsong, embracing nature,” the current owner says.
“Then take a quick drive to Pottsville Beach for a refreshing ocean swim after a day’s work. This is a place where adventure and relaxation coexist.”
As Benwerrin prepares for its next chapter, it stands ready for new custodians to write their own story. With its versatile infrastructure, natural beauty, and prime location, the property offers countless possibilities — from continuing its agricultural legacy to exploring new commercial ventures.
This is a special opportunity to become part of a continuing story that began over 70 years ago with one family’s dream. Now, as this chapter closes, “Benwerrin” awaits its next visionaries to take up the mantle and write their own pages in its rich history.
