About this property

Set across 4.30 hectares with a serene rainforest backdrop, this is a property that stands in a class of its own. First time offered for sale in 30 years. Privately positioned behind a secure entry gate, a long driveway winds through the greenery before revealing a residence that feels completely removed from the outside world. Then the view opens up. Uninterrupted, elevated and stretching across Cairns City to the ocean and Green Island beyond - it's the kind of outlook that instantly sets this property apart. Held on a single title and comprising three separate dwellings, this estate offers a level of flexibility that's rarely seen on this scale. Whether it's accommodating extended family, integrated living, creating a private retreat or exploring income potential, the groundwork is already here. THE MAIN RESIDENCE Positioned to capture the view from every possible angle, the main home is both expansive and considered in its design. High ceilings, and open plan living create a sense of volume, while large openings draw the outside in connecting seamlessly to the entertaining area. This is where the home really comes to life. The patio overlooks the heated pool, spa and gazebo all framed by the city skyline and ocean beyond. It's a space designed for both quiet evenings and large scale entertaining with the backdrop doing most of the work. At the centre the kitchen balances functionality with quality finishes, expansive benchtops, gas cooking, integrated Sub Zero refrigeration complemented by a separate butler's pantry and internal laundry keeping everything practical and out of sight. Close to the kitchen server is a stainless steel outdoor covered bbq/hot plate with integrated bar fridge. The layout offers flexibility across both levels. Downstairs multiple living zones include a large office/media area perfectly positioned to take in the view - ideal for those working from home without compromising on outlook. Bedrooms are well-appointed with a guest suite complete with walk in robe, ensuite, additional storage and direct patio and pool access. Upstairs is dedicated to the master retreat. Elevated even further it captures even a broader perspective across Cairns. A private balcony, small kitchenette, walk-in-robe, spacious bathroom with a freestanding tub overlooking the city complete the space - equal parts private and impressive. Bespoke furniture, rugs, lamps and artwork in outstanding colours selected and installed by a renowned Brisbane based Interior Designer complete the ambience of this sanctuary and are available. Parking and infrastructure are equally well considered with a double garage, tandem carport, EV charging capability with solar panels and battery backup already in place. There is a fully functional walk in aviary with a variety of finches tucked discreetly away from the main entertaining area. STUDIO/FLEXIBLE LIVING Separate from the main dwelling this building introduces a completely different layer of functionality. Currently set up downstairs as a flexible studio-style space it lends itself to a range of uses from art studio or hobby space, gym, workshop, games room, teenagers retreat, etc. This lower level is fully tiled, air conditioned and has generous shelving and storage options. Upstairs is currently an additional living area with a long balcony that again takes advantage of the elevated outlook. Adding further practicality, 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. Comfortable and independent it includes a kitchenette, bathroom, bedroom and living space, all designed for easy day to day living. A cozy rear patio provides a quiet place to unwind looking out to the natural surrounds. The seasonal flowing creek can be heard when active, offering a completely different, more tranquil perspective of the property. With its own carport and separation from the main home its well suited for extended family, guests or longer term accommodation options.
