112 Mansfield Street, Earlville, Qld 4870 - More Details
Best Offers by COB Wednesday, 9 September 2026
It feels like the Daintree. It just happens to be approximately 12 minutes from the Cairns CBD.
Hidden within your own 5,899m2 of rainforest, 112 Mansfield Street offers a level of space, privacy and atmosphere that is incredibly difficult to find this close to the city.
Mornings begin quietly, surrounded by rainforest with the constant sound of the nearby freshwater creek and swimming hole in the background. It stays with you throughout the day, and by evening, sitting out on the deck looking through the trees, it is genuinely hard to believe you are still in Cairns.
The scale of the home is just as impressive as the setting. Across seven bedrooms and five bathrooms, there is genuine flexibility for a large family, multi-generational living, regular guests or simply the luxury of having room to spread out.
The layout also provides a level of separation that makes the home particularly versatile, with five bedrooms connected to the main residence and two additional studios accessed externally.
It is the kind of property that really does need to be experienced in person. Photos can show the rainforest and the scale, but the privacy, sound of the water and feeling of being completely removed from the city are much harder to capture.

There is a real authenticity to the home that works beautifully with its rainforest setting, particularly through the studios where timber accents, natural textures and original character feel completely at home in the landscape.
There are areas that could be refreshed and improved over time, including the deck surrounds, but that should not overshadow what is already here. The scale, privacy, setting and personality of the home are incredibly difficult to manufacture.
Enjoy what makes it special now, then refine the rest in your own way over time.
Recreating a property offering this combination of accommodation, land, rainforest setting and proximity to Cairns today would come at a significant cost.

The holiday let potential here goes well beyond simply providing accommodation. You are providing an experience.
Guests could wake up surrounded by rainforest, spend the day enjoying the nearby creek and natural swimming hole, then still be close enough to Cairns for restaurants, reef trips, the airport and everything they came north to enjoy.
With seven bedrooms and five bathrooms, the home also has genuine capacity for families and larger groups, opening it to a very different part of the short-stay market. For a buyer considering the property from a longer-term investment perspective, it is the combination of experience, capacity and location that makes the opportunity particularly interesting.
It could be enjoyed as a substantial private residence, a tropical base for part of the year, a place for extended family and friends, or potentially explored as short-stay accommodation when not in personal use, subject to the relevant approvals. This flexibility was also central to the original marketing strategy discussed with the vendor.
