Writer Craig McGregor and his family have snappily sold their five-acre farm at Tyagarah, in the Byron hinterland.

It comes with an extended 100-year-old farmhouse with five bedrooms.

Its verandahs over look the grounds that have pool, stable, round yard, orchard, flower beds and treehouse.

It is set 10 minutes from Byron Bay, Bangalow and Mullumbimby. 

The original farmhouse was built in 1904 with views overlooking Koonyum Range, Night Cap Ranges, Mt Jerusalem through to Mt Warning and Mt Chincogan.

The First National agents James Young and Tara Torkkola had $1.1 million hopes and are understood by Title Tattle to have secured $1.05 million.

After five years and two books, and another one on Bob Dylan on the way, the family have reluctantly decided times they are a'changing - as they move back to Byron Bay.

Craig and Jane have decided to buy a house in Byron Bay - designed by Helen McKay, wife of Ian McKay, who designed their original houseat Wategos Beach. 

It was 2010 they sold their Wategos Beach property which had Ian McKay's first Byron Bay architectural commission.
