This residence on almost six acres of beautiful, pristine land was built by the guideline that the most important aspect of a residence is its landscape and that architectural impact should be minimal.
The property with a permanent creek alongside the rear boundary and a natural rock-pool comprises of two individual dwellings, each of them with a concreted driveway and a wrought-iron gate.
The main house accommodates a living area as well as a dining area, kitchen, two bedrooms, bathroom plus a separate one-bedroom retreat with bathroom that would ideally serve as a teenage-accommodation or office and a double lock-up garage.
Central hub for the owners year-round is a patio of grand proportions that captures the scent of the rainforest with undisturbed privacy and views of the tropical landscape and gardens that allows entertaining in style.
The second dwelling is well set back from the main-dwelling and built from masonry block. It features four bedrooms, bathroom and a utility-room. Currently it accommodates a respectable entomology collection but it could be converted to a full-size residence with neither much effort nor costs. A sustainable rental income potential from this secondary residence is estimated to be in the proximity of $400 a week.
A two-room workshop, as well build from masonry block, provides plenty of room for storage and machinery. Due to its construction principles, it can be converted to other purposes with minimal effort.
A quality bore, two rainwater-tanks, a garden-shed, back-up generator, pumps, two shade houses, multiple walking tracks throughout the property and down to the creek provides the opportunity to live in tune with nature.
There is plenty of flat usable land as well as parts that declines moderately towards the propertys creek.
Kuranda, The Village in the Rainforest, provides a well-balanced infrastructure with schools, a shopping centre, a medical centre, a variety of shops, cafes and restaurants, not to mention its many international renowned spectacular sights, is just a couple of minutes down the road.
Most picturesque Coral Sea beaches, Smithfield at Cairns Northern Beaches, James Cook University, the International Airport and the Cairns CBD can be reached in 20-30 minutes.
The seller would prefer a longer settlement or a conventional length settlement with an arrangement to lease-back the property for a few months.
