If you are looking for a truly special piece of Tropical North Queensland, this outstanding 18-acre property offers one of the most spectacular outlooks on the Cassowary Coast, with breathtaking views stretching from Cowley Beach to Tully, incredible privacy and no visible neighbours.
With approximately 16 acres of cleared and established land , beautiful tropical surroundings and exciting possibilities for the future, this property has a lot to offer.
Set on 7.265 hectares (approx. 18 acres) in El Arish, the property offers incredible peace and privacy while still being conveniently located.
The property is only 2 minutes from the Bruce Highway, approximately 10 minutes from Garners Beach, Brooks Beach and Bingil Bay, and around 15 minutes from picturesque Mission Beach and Dunk Island. Cairns is approximately 1½ hours away and Townsville approximately 2½ hours away.
From the elevated 600m² cleared building pad at the highest point of the property, the breathtaking outlook stretches from Cowley Beach to Tully, across the Coral Sea and surrounding offshore islands. The view has to be seen to be truly appreciated.
From the rear of the property, the rainforest-covered mountains of the Wet Tropics of Queensland World Heritage Area stretch towards the Atherton Tablelands, creating an amazing natural backdrop.
Approximately 16 acres of the 18-acre property is cleared and established, consisting of gently sloping grassland together with extensive established gardens and tropical fruit trees surrounding the home. This means the vast majority of the property is open, and usable land, suitable for cattle, horses, hobby farming or other agricultural uses.
Two picturesque seasonal creeks run through the property, adding to its beautiful tropical setting, and the property has never flooded.
Another major feature is the established tropical fruit orchard, with over 350 fruit bearing trees , developed over approximately 18 years and containing an exceptional collection of tropical, subtropical and exotic fruit trees. The orchard includes Purple mangosteens, rambutans, lychees, soursops, durians, jackfruit, mangoes, avocados, citrus, coconuts, abiu, sapotes, guavas and many other varieties.
A detailed Tropical Fruit Orchard Tree Inventory is listed in the photo section.
The property features a comfortable 120m² home with an additional 40m² covered verandah, providing plenty of space to relax and enjoy the peaceful tropical surroundings.
The home is fully tiled and air-conditioned throughout and has been built with strength, durability and low maintenance in mind. It is constructed from a combination of Besser block and Colorbond, with an all-steel roof.
An 7.66-metre swimming pool provides the perfect place to cool off and enjoy the North Queensland climate while taking in the breathtaking mountain views.
The established landscaped gardens feature attractive rock borders and a relaxing fire pit area.
The house and pool were Council approved in February 2025, with fully engineered plans for all structures. As part of the Council approval process, all new plumbing works were completed, including new underground plumbing trenches.
Water is supplied by a 37-metre-deep bore with a brand-new Onga pump, together with a two-stage water filtration system and UV purification.
The property also includes a large 12m x 3m shade house and a 3m x 3m garden shed and a vegetable garden providing plenty of space and storage for the garden lover.
The elevated 600m² building pad provides an outstanding location for a second dwelling, subject to Council approval.
With its established tropical fruit orchard, usable land, natural surroundings and proximity to Mission Beach, there is also excellent potential for a future tourism venture, subject to Council approval.
Possibilities could include tourist cabins, farm stays, eco-style accommodation or a tropical fruit tourism business.
