There are homes... and then there are experiences.
Welcome to one of Macleay Island's most extraordinary residences—a fully council-approved yurt that redefines island living. Nestled on a generous 807m² allotment and surrounded by nature, this remarkable property offers an unforgettable lifestyle, whether you're searching for a private retreat, an inspiring family home, or an exceptional Airbnb investment.
Designed to embrace natural light, fresh breezes and the beauty of its surroundings, this is the not-so-tiny house that delivers an elevated way of living. Warm, welcoming and filled with character, every space has been thoughtfully created to connect you with nature while offering modern comfort.
Floor-to-ceiling wraparound windows bathe the home in sunlight, framing leafy outlooks, abundant birdlife and glimpses of the water beyond. The enchanting loft retreat features a skylight where you can fall asleep beneath the stars, watch the moon rise, and wake to birds soaring overhead—an experience few homes can offer.
Craftsmanship is evident throughout. Bespoke 50mm live-edge camphor slab benchtops, handcrafted by an Italian-trained woodworker, create a stunning focal point, while a cast iron fireplace brings warmth and ambience during winter. A solar-assisted 3kW reverse-cycle air conditioner ensures year-round comfort.
The flexible floorplan includes an upstairs Mezzanine, downstairs bedroom zone with home cinema, study nook, dedicated tea ceremony space and a beautifully engineered alternating-tread staircase leading to the magical loft.
Step outside and the lifestyle continues.
Relax on the expansive wraparound deck, gather around the firepit beneath a canopy of stars, enjoy morning yoga in the outdoor studio, or unwind in your own gym and sauna. Mature shade trees create peaceful garden rooms, while the home's position towards the rear of the block provides exceptional privacy and plenty of room to grow fruit, vegetables or simply enjoy the open space.
Adding to its uniqueness, the property adjoins two protected native conservation reserves, ensuring your tranquil green outlook will remain untouched. Located in a quiet no-through street where neighbours still know one another and children play safely outdoors, this is island living at its very best.
For those seeking an income-producing lifestyle property, The Yurt also presents an outstanding opportunity as boutique accommodation. Fully approved by council, its distinctive architecture and unforgettable guest experience make it ideally suited to the growing demand for unique short-stay accommodation.
Convenience perfectly complements the peaceful setting. Stroll to the waterfront, launch a kayak just a few houses away, or wander to a secluded beach within minutes. Cafés, the farmers market, health food store, fish and chip shop, pet supplies, Art Centre, Bowls Club and everyday essentials are all within easy walking distance.
Macleay Island continues to flourish, offering the perfect balance of relaxed coastal living and modern convenience. Regular passenger and vehicle ferries provide an easy commute to the mainland, while residents enjoy shopping, cafés, restaurants, medical facilities, a primary school, library, arts precinct, bowls club, golf club, markets and an active community—all surrounded by the spectacular waters of Southern Moreton Bay.
Whether you're watching the stars through the loft skylight, sharing stories around the firepit, or enjoying the peaceful sounds of nature from the deck, Starry Night is far more than a home.
It's a destination.
It's a lifestyle.
It's an experience you'll never want to leave.
