Phone enquiries - please quote property ID 9285

Mission Beach in tropical North Queensland is truly one of Australia's most amazing locations. Here World Heritage Rainforest meets the Coral Sea and Great Barrier Reef, separated by a brilliant strip of golden sand.

Cottonwood is arguably Mission Beach's finest lifestyle property.33 acres (13.54ha) of tropical gardens, rolling lawns and pristine rainforest provide a truly stunning setting for Cottonwood.

You'll enjoy 180 degree views of the Coral Sea and nearby islands and you're guaranteed the absolute privacy that only such generous acreage allows. Yet, Cottonwood is centrally located in the heart of Mission Beach, less than 3 minutes drive to many beaches, restaurants and shopping.

Built in the ?Modern Queenslander Style?, the large (55sq) luxury home features a stunning freeform pool that appears to "float" out into the Coral Sea.The home was designed by leading tropical home designer Tony Lawson. A key aspect evident in his work is to have a building that is highly suited to the tropics and the relaxed indoor/outdoor style of living that is so suited to the climate.With Cottonwood, Tony has excelled, there is a sense of casual elegance, a feeling of space and light that engenders a real sense of wellbeing. Indeed many people comment that it ?feels good? to be there.

One of the key features of the home is a sliding ?glass wall? 2.5 metres high and almost 8 metres wide in the living area, this opens to reveal an uninterrupted panoramic ocean view from inside. The master bedroom also features sliding glass walls. The ensuite has a spa whilst the main bathroom features a natural river pebble floor in the huge shower.There is also a surreal private outdoor ?rainforest shower? complete with a stunning ocean view. Having a shower will never be the same again! There are two further large bedrooms in the main house.

The kitchen is in high gloss white, with luxury European appliances and priceless reclaimed solid Queensland Maple bench tops and leads to an outdoor pavilion dining and entertainment area overlooking the pool.

Floors are honey coloured polished bamboo which highlights the ?tropical white? paintwork throughout. There is also a separate completely self contained studio apartment a short distance from the main home. Ideal as guest, teenager or parents accommodation. To top it all off there is a huge shed (15m x 15m) with lock up section, water, separately metered power and phone connected.

Cottonwood is absolutely prime real estate. Stunning ocean views that can never be built out. Thousands of hectares of World Heritage Rainforest to the rear. Gentle sea breezes, no neighbours visible, peace and quiet which is only interrupted by the birds. Cottonwood takes beach living to another level, away from the boring suburbia that so characterises much of Australia's beach front locations.Here are some more reasons why Cottonwood makes sense. Mission Beach is a thriving residential beachside community that also attracts a large number of local and international visitors. In a recent survey of Australia's top 100 towns, Mission Beach was second in Queensland and eighteenth overall.

Cottonwood also lends itself to many other potential uses. As well as short term luxury holiday rental. Cottonwood is currently also used for small weddings and social functions. Corporate uses include boardroom type meetings, training courses and sales meetings. There is a real shortage of premium conference venues in the area so social and corporate function activities could readily be expanded.

The large cleared flat area to the west of the main buildings is ideally suited to the development of an Eco Resort. Accommodation could be in detached units around a central feature such as a lake and gardens, whilst the main house would be ideal for reception, bar and restaurant use.

The amount of land available for development between the protected rainforest and the coral sea is severely limited. In as little as a couple of years, significant acreage properties such as Cottonwood, right on the coast with 180 ocean views will simply not be available? at any price.

However if you wish to simply enjoy an amazing lifestyle all you need to do is move in, everything is ready, so if you are considering a seachange to anywhere in Queensland you owe it to yourself to visit Cottonwood. (click on website link below to view additional photos).

Cottonwood was priced at $2.68M but is now reduced to $1.95m. Be quick, before it is snapped up by an overseas investor! Call owner Today.
