This home softens the soul with vivacious colour, easy pavilion living and seclusion. Forget the outside world, enjoy your private retreat, it's all been done for you with style and tropical sophistication. This home could suit semi-retired city escapees, those who wish to run a B&B or indeed a young family. Just 5 minutes from Mossman and 15 minutes to the chic coastal hot-spot of Port Douglas, it's close to everything, yet private and concealed, all within 1.7ha (4.3acres) of pristine Nth Qld rainforest.
Comprising 2 large pavilions, both adjacent a tranquil lagoon pool, surrounded by lush, verdant landscaping and rainforest. One pavilion (8x17m of living space not including the spacious wrap-around verandah) contains the very large kitchen/dining/living space, with high vaulted ceilings and several double opening doors out to the verandah. This pavilion breathes in the rainforest air, fully screened, it's cool and inviting. A chef's kitchen, there's no-end of cupboard space, stone benches, perfectly appointed, its one heck of a cooking space!
The second and third bedrooms each have robes and A/C, separate access off the wide verandah, both sharing a beautifully finished bathroom, with cool aquamarine tiles and double vanity. Contemporary high-gloss floor-tiles throughout.
The second pavilion, just 2 years old, is simply an indulgent master suite, (7x20m) comprising large outdoor terrace, spacious sitting-room, then split-level down to the sumptuous bedroom, with ensuite and w/in robe. The dimensions are perfect, it's relaxed, with large openings offering natural light and breeze. Enjoy your shower with floor to ceiling views out to the rainforest, double basins of granite, suspended vanity, and large floor-tiles adding to the luxuriant vibe.
There's a little bit of unique history too, as some years ago the original Kuranda Police Station and Jail were moved to the property and restored. They lie a little lower than the other pavilions, in fact you wouldn't even know they were there. These are currently used as an office, but can be storage, B&B accommodation, kids playhouse, whatever you need it to be. A fabulous bonus to add to this exclusive property.
It's all like staying in your own private resort, only you never have to check-out! A birdwatcher's haven, a wildlife observatory, butterflies aplenty, an orchard of tropical fruit trees, generous car accommodation, solar hot-water??it's all here and it could be yours.
