Overview
This exceptional property offers a unique rainforest retreat experience situated just 12 minutes from Cairns CBD. Nestled within 5,899 square meters of lush and private rainforest, the residence provides an unparalleled sense of peace and space rarely found close to the city.
The home’s expansive scale, featuring seven bedrooms and five bathrooms, caters well to large families, multi-generational living, or those requiring ample room for guests. Its design cleverly separates five bedrooms within the main residence and includes two self-contained studios, each with their own bathroom, accessed externally. This distinctive layout enhances privacy and flexibility, ideal for accommodating various lifestyle needs.
A large swimming pool surrounded by tropical greenery complements two generous outdoor decks, creating inviting spaces to relax and enjoy the tranquil rainforest outlook. The quiet ambience, amplified by the sounds of a nearby freshwater creek and natural swimming hole, further reinforces the property's secluded character.
The property, built circa 2002 and freshly painted inside, blends authentic natural textures and timber accents, particularly in the studios, which harmonize with the rainforest setting. While some elements like deck surrounds could benefit from future improvements, the home’s character, privacy, and setting strongly define its appeal.
Its versatile potential makes it suitable as a private family residence, a tropical holiday base, or an extended family home. The option to explore short-stay accommodation use offers an intriguing investment prospect, delivering a rare combination of accommodation capacity, location, and an immersive natural experience. Proximity to Cairns’ key amenities such as the airport, shopping, reef trips, and recreation ensures convenience without compromising the seclusion the property offers.
