If your dream is to own a secluded luxury waterfront retreat in a tropical paradise, look no further. Sotheby's is proud to present the first release of this architect-inspired residence - a property without peer within the Cairns hinterland.
This exceptional home offers a rare opportunity for an absolute waterfront lifestyle in the cool air of the tablelands on the naturally forested Peterson's Creek peninsula of Lake Tinaroo. Within the exclusive Kulara Waters Estate, the property shares an extensive buffer zone of tropical rainforest and tall eucalypt woodland that can never be built on, ensuring a high level of seclusion and privacy.
Despite its remarkable privacy, the property is within easy walking distance to schools, shopping and other facilities in the charming heritage village of Yungaburra. Offered for sale for the first time in over 30 years, this home was modelled on an architectural design, offering a unique lifestyle combining ecological values and seclusion.
Whether as a private executive residence, boutique retreat, or multi-generational sanctuary, 18 Allumbah Drive offers a lifestyle of peace, natural beauty and enduring value.
Set within a richly diverse ecological landscape, this property is home to an extraordinary variety of native flora and fauna - from wallabies and tree-kangaroos to platypuses and tropical bird species rarely seen near urban areas.
Here, in the cool air of the Atherton Tablelands, you can unwind while taking in breathtaking lake views, explore the adjoining rainforest and woodlands, or fish for world-record barramundi from your own shoreline.
