5/5 Tropic Court, Port Douglas, Qld 4877

Every so often a Port Douglas apartment comes along that suits almost everyone who walks through the door. 5 Tamarind is one of them: modern, residential zoning, two bedrooms, fully furnished, vacant possession, a reasonable body corporate, and a 450 metre walk to Four Mile Beach without crossing a single road.

Tamarind is a small complex of just six apartments gathered around a lagoon pool and barbecue area. Number 5 sits upstairs on the first floor and is reached by its own private staircase, so nobody walks past your door and nobody lives above you. Inside, 105 square metres have been renovated in a clean, modern style that has not dated: an open plan living and dining space, a modern kitchen with timber benchtops, a smart bathroom with laundry, timber look flooring through the living areas and bedrooms, built in wardrobes and a linen cupboard.

Two balconies give you a choice of where to spend the day. The rear balcony opens from the main bedroom and catches the morning light, which makes it the place for the first coffee. The front balcony runs the full width of the living area and faces the setting sun, and it is large enough for a proper dining table, so dinner outside becomes the routine rather than the occasion.

What makes this apartment unusual is how many different buyers it works for. If you are moving to Port Douglas, you can arrive with a suitcase and be living here the day you settle. If you are buying your first home or downsizing, residential zoning means you can live here permanently, and pets are welcome subject to body corporate approval. If you want a lock and leave base in the tropics, a small, quiet complex with a private entrance is exactly that. And if you are investing, the apartment is vacant and ready for a tenant, with a current rental appraisal of approximately $600 per week and a reasonable body corporate.

The location does the rest. Four Mile Park, with its playground, barbecue pavilions and beach access, is a flat 450 metre stroll. The off leash stretch of Four Mile Beach starts from the park and loops back towards the Four Mile Tavern and the Beach Shack, a locals favourite serving breakfast, lunch and dinner seven days a week. The takeaway and bottle shop are just around the corner, and Port Douglas State School and the IGA shopping centre are 1.4 kilometres away.

Apartments this easy to own, this close to the beach, rarely sit for long. To arrange an inspection, call Matthew Essex on 0481 126 732 or email [email protected].
