Overview

Kanimbla

Set across 4.30 hectares with a serene rainforest backdrop, this exceptional hillside estate offers a unique and private living experience. First time offered for sale in 30 years, the property is accessed via a secure entry gate and a long driveway that winds through lush greenery, revealing a residence that feels completely secluded from the outside world.

The elevated position provides uninterrupted panoramic views stretching across Cairns City to the ocean and Green Island beyond, creating a breathtaking outlook that distinguishes this property.

Held on a single title, the estate comprises three separate dwellings, offering remarkable flexibility for accommodating extended family, integrated living, private retreats, or potential income opportunities.

Main Residence

The main home is designed to capture the stunning views from every angle. Featuring high ceilings and open plan living, the residence creates a spacious and airy atmosphere. Large openings seamlessly connect the interior to the outdoor entertaining area, where a patio overlooks a heated pool, spa, and gazebo, all framed by the city skyline and ocean.

The kitchen is a centerpiece of functionality and quality, equipped with expansive benchtops, gas cooking, integrated Sub Zero refrigeration, a separate butler's pantry, and an internal laundry to keep practical elements out of sight. Adjacent to the kitchen is a stainless steel outdoor covered BBQ and hot plate with an integrated bar fridge, perfect for entertaining.

The layout offers versatile living spaces across two levels. Downstairs includes multiple living zones and a large office/media area positioned to take advantage of the views, ideal for working from home. Bedrooms are well-appointed, including a guest suite with a walk-in robe, ensuite, additional storage, and direct access to the patio and pool.

Upstairs is dedicated to the master retreat, elevated further to capture even broader perspectives of Cairns. This private sanctuary includes a balcony, small kitchenette, walk-in robe, and a spacious bathroom with a freestanding tub overlooking the city.

Additional features include bespoke furniture, rugs, lamps, and artwork selected by a renowned interior designer, which are available with the property. Parking and infrastructure are thoughtfully designed with a double garage, tandem carport, EV charging capability, solar panels, and battery backup.

A fully functional walk-in aviary with a variety of finches is discreetly located away from the main entertaining area.

Studio/Flexible Living

Separate from the main residence, this building offers a flexible studio-style space downstairs, suitable for an art studio, gym, workshop, games room, or teenager's retreat. The lower level is fully tiled, air-conditioned, and includes generous shelving and storage. Upstairs provides an additional living area with a long balcony that takes advantage of the elevated outlook.

The dwelling is supported by a separate shelved storage container, a plant nursery area, and an additional shed positioned behind, ideal for tools, equipment, or overflow storage.

Self-Contained Granny Flat

Privately positioned within the grounds, this dwelling offers fully self-contained accommodation surrounded by rainforest. It includes a kitchenette, bathroom, bedroom, and living space designed for easy day-to-day living. A cozy rear patio provides a tranquil place to unwind while enjoying the natural surroundings. The seasonal flowing creek adds to the peaceful ambiance. With its own carport and separation from the main home, it is well suited for extended family, guests, or longer-term accommodation.
