Tucked away just a brief 10-minute drive from the heart of Canungra township, O’Reillys Canungra Valley Vineyard beckons you to explore its intriguing blend of history and natural beauty. The venue can also cater to events and weddings, as well as offering a high class restaurant.
A Homestead Transformed
The focal point of this estate is the stunning homestead. The building is a living testament to its remarkable journey from Warwick to its present location. Erected in Warwick in 1958 for the Devine family, this historic structure has witnessed the passage of time for over 65 years. In 1989, it was disassembled into three sections and carefully transported to its current home on Lamington National Park Road, just beyond Canungra’s boundaries. There, it underwent a meticulous restoration process, preserving its original period features and historical charm. As local lore has it, this homestead holds more than just architectural secrets; whispers of a resident ghost add a touch of mystique to its intriguing narrative.
