Quintessential Queenslander In The Daintree Rainforest With Coral Sea Views

Where the ancient rainforest meets the Great Barrier Reef, this elevated 1.16-hectare property delivers a lifestyle found nowhere else on Earth. Just two minutes from Cow Bay Beach, a private 80-metre driveway winds through lush rainforest unveiling a classic Queenslander home perfectly positioned to capture sweeping views across the UNESCO World Heritage–listed Daintree Rainforest and out to the shimmering Coral Sea.

Originally relocated from south of Cairns, the classically beautiful timber Queenslander home has been carefully re-established in this pristine setting and now enjoys complete privacy, surrounded by the enchanting rainforest and tropical landscaping.

Stairs lead up from the double carport to the fully self-contained residence. Inside, the residence is light-filled and inviting, with three bedrooms, a bathroom with bathtub plus second toilet, kitchen, dining, lounge, and laundry. Cooling sea breezes and new ceiling fans keep the home comfortable year-round, while verandahs front and back provide extra living and entertaining space. Perfectly positioned in its surroundings, every room offers a view, while the wide front verandah is the ideal place to watch the sun rise over the ocean each morning.

Designed for self-sufficient living, the property features a newly upgraded solar power system, three large rainwater tanks, and a backup generator. Satellite internet and TV signal ensure modern conveniences, while established tropical fruit trees, including jackfruit, enhance the tropical setting.

Operating as successful holiday accommodation for over a decade, the property offers buyers the opportunity to continue its proven income stream or enjoy it as their own private sanctuary. With nearly half a million visitors exploring the Daintree each year, the appeal is undeniable.

The Daintree Rainforest is of extreme world heritage significance with its extraordinary biodiversity and unique natural landscapes. Visitors might see cassowaries, tree kangaroos, Boyd’s forest dragons, Ulysses butterflies, and rare marsupials and reptiles.

At over 180 million years old, it’s considered the oldest surviving tropical rainforest on Earth and it’s part of the Wet Tropics of Queensland World Heritage Area, recognised for its outstanding universal value containing thousands of plant species, including ancient ferns and towering fan palms.

Despite its sense of seclusion, the property is just 27 minutes from the Daintree Ferry for easy access south, with Cow Bay and the Daintree coast offering a selection of cafés, dining, and everyday amenities nearby.

This property is available to view by private inspection only.
