Various Machinery INCLUDED in sale The Location
Shell Pocket is a quiet rural locality prized for its rainforest valleys, acreage holdings and peaceful natural setting. From Jackson Road, you are close to the local conveniences of El Arish, including the tavern, golf course, post office and everyday services, while still being within easy reach of the Mission Beach coastal strip.
Mission Beach offers approximately 14 kilometres of coastline, cafes, restaurants, beaches, boating access and the gateway appeal of Dunk Island, Bedarra Island and the surrounding reef. Clump Point provides important boating infrastructure for those wanting access to fishing, island-hopping and the Coral Sea. Larger service centres including Tully and Innisfail are also within reach for hospitals, shopping, schools, medical services and broader town facilities.
This is a location that gives you the best of both worlds — a private rainforest retreat with creek frontage and off-grid independence, without being completely isolated from the coast, town services or everyday convenience.Set deep within a spectacular rainforest valley, 265 Jackson Road offers a rare opportunity to secure a private tropical acreage where nature, space and self-sufficient living come together beautifully. Positioned on 3.35 hectares of lush rainforest gardens with Maria Creek frontage, this is the kind of property that feels completely removed from the everyday, yet remains within easy reach of El Arish, Mission Beach, Tully and Innisfail.
Properties with this level of privacy, rainforest beauty, creek frontage and practical infrastructure are rarely found this close to the coast. Whether you are searching for a peaceful permanent home, a private tropical escape or a lifestyle acreage with genuine character, 265 Jackson Road is a property that needs to be experienced in person.
