21-23 Maori Close, Clifton Beach QLD 4879 - More Details
Tropical Acreage Living, Designed to Belong
There are homes that simply sit within their surroundings, and then there are homes that feel as though they were designed to become part of them. Set across an impressive 4,036m² parcel in Clifton Beach, 21-23 Maori Close is very much the latter, a private tropical retreat where space, architecture and the Far North Queensland lifestyle come together beautifully.
Built in 2010 and designed by acclaimed Far North Queensland building designer Chris Van Dyke, the home embodies many of the principles for which his work has become renowned. Natural light, ventilation and a genuine connection between indoors and out have all been carefully considered, creating a residence that doesn't simply accommodate tropical living, but embraces it.
From the moment you enter, beautiful timber floors establish a warmth that continues throughout the home. Generous proportions and multiple living areas provide plenty of room for the family to come together while still allowing everyone their own space. Wide openings, banks of louvres and an abundance of natural light reinforce the home's connection with its leafy surrounds, while the expansive open plan kitchen, dining and living areas form the social heart of the residence.
But it is the relationship between the interior and exterior that truly defines this home. Large bi-fold doors peel away to create an almost uninterrupted transition onto an enormous covered entertaining area, allowing the indoor and outdoor spaces to function as one. Whether it's a quiet morning coffee surrounded by greenery, long lunches with friends or entertaining a crowd, this is a home designed around the way we actually live in the tropics.
From here, the outlook extends across the magnesium swimming pool and established tropical gardens, creating a private resort-like setting at the centre of the property. Beyond the pool, expansive lawns and mature vegetation reinforce the sense of space and seclusion that only a property of this scale can provide. A wood-fired pizza oven adds yet another dimension to the outdoor entertaining, making weekends at home something to look forward to.
The accommodation continues the same thoughtful approach. Four generous bedrooms provide excellent separation and privacy, with the home's orientation, louvred windows and large openings allowing the surrounding greenery to remain a constant part of the experience. With two bathrooms and multiple internal living zones, the floorplan has been created to comfortably accommodate family life without compromising the home's open and relaxed atmosphere.
For those needing serious storage, workspace or room for the toys, the property delivers something increasingly difficult to find. A newly constructed 12m x 12m three-bay block shed provides an exceptional 144m² of additional space, ideal for boats, caravans, vehicles, a workshop or simply the freedom to pursue hobbies without compromise.
Practicality has also been considered on a substantial scale, with two 10.5kW solar systems providing a combined 21kW of solar capacity, an outstanding inclusion for a property of this size.
Yet perhaps the greatest luxury here is simply the feeling of space. More than an acre of land provides room to breathe, room for children to explore and room to entertain on a scale rarely available so close to the beaches of Cairns' Northern Beaches. The established tropical surrounds provide privacy and a wonderful sense of escape, while the home's architecture ensures those surroundings are enjoyed from almost every angle.
21-23 Maori Close is not simply an acreage home. It is a considered piece of tropical architecture, where Chris Van Dyke's design philosophy, beautiful natural materials and an extraordinary connection between indoors and out have created a property perfectly suited to its environment.
Private, spacious and unmistakably tropical, this is acreage living with architectural pedigree and a lifestyle to match.
