Conveniently located in one of Cairns' most beloved suburbs yet tucked away for utter privacy, this elevated home enjoys ample space, stunning views and everything you could want in a home - all in walking distance of your morning coffee and evening cocktail in the hub of Edge Hill.

Set at the end of the street and backing onto rainforest and council land, this home might be unassuming from the front, but for those lucky enough to walk through the gate, something truly special awaits.

Ideal for the tropics, a covered and tiled breezeway links the practical with the playful, the triple high clearance garage and workshop to one side, the eminently modern living areas to the other. Timber features abound, complementing the landscaped gardens and natural greenery past the front decks.

Step through the wide timber door and the home is instantly light and bright, with cool, even lighting and high ceilings throughout , with a surrounding expansive use of glass to bring the outdoors in with natural colour.

Divided into two wings, the front of the home captures both breeze and views with the master suite, main lounge, 2nd lounge, dining and kitchen fronting onto glass bifold doors, giving you the option to relax in peace, quiet (and cool), or embrace the outdoors and flow out to the utterly massive timber deck which runs the majority of the front of the block and frames the in-ground pool.

Walking through this home, everything has been carefully and clearly thought out with an eye both to detail and comfort. Whether it be the tasteful lighting above the kitchen bench or the flow of water into the luxurious bath in the ensuite - there is a lot to like (and even love).

To the rear, the three additional bedrooms are each well-proportioned and positioned for privacy, with mirrored built-ins while the main bathroom offers floor to ceiling tiles, freestanding bath, rain shower and the same high quality of finish evidenced throughout. A clever study can be hidden away and adds practical WFH appeal.

If the inside of the home doesn't have you smitten quite yet, then the outside will clinch it. Beyond the deck (and what a deck), quiet spaces abound to sit and relax or watch children and pets play, the in-ground pool is exceptional and the views offer a perfect mix of city skyline and ocean with a lush carpet of trees that sees more canopy than rooftop and a truly stunning sunrise.

Now take this beautiful home and add the benefit of (both international and domestic) airports and CBD less than 10 minutes' drive, restaurants and café's literally at the end of the street and some of Cairns' most keenly sought school catchments in Edge Hill State School and Cairns State High School. Cairns also offers access to 2 Universities, with 3 campuses.

There is of course more to see - but for the rest, you'll need to either watch our showcase video or come and see this home for yourself. For more information or your private tour, call Tom Quaid at Colliers.

Positioned 2 minutes from the Mareeba high street and within easy commuting distance of Cairns, this country style home offers a high standard of living for all the family on over 5000m2 of riverfront land.

Positioned on a cul-de-sac of just a handful of homes in Ciobo Close, this original clay brick home has been lovingly updated over time to offer modern conveniences while retaining an absolute charm of quality in construction and materials - from the Australian sourced hardwoods in the cabinetry and exposed rafters, through to the brickwork and internal fireplace.

Set across two levels with the majority across a single level, the home provides for a total of 5 bedrooms, with an additional office/reading room displaying beautiful red cedar built-in timber cabinetry and desk. Ideal for larger families or hosting guests, there are also a total of 5 bathrooms, including 3 ensuites and a "wet room" in from the patio, which runs the full way around the home and lets you enjoy the outdoors from virtually anywhere in the home.

Enjoyment really is the theme here, with large living areas inside and out to entertain and relax all year round - whether its in a cosy spot by the fireplace in winter or playing billiards by the family sized pool on those sunny summer days (and with Mareeba averaging 300 sunny days a year....there's a lot of those!). Giving the feel of the quintessential country pub, there is even a built-in bar that serves equally inside or out - whether it's a quiet cold one at the end of the day or serving friends and family well past "close".

Upstairs, the master retreat offers both space and privacy, with an extra large bedroom, modern ensuite and timber deck overlooking the gardens and out to the Barron River at the foot of the property. While the timber stairs are a beautiful feature, for those looking for a more novel mode of transport, there is a hydraulic lift between levels.

Outside, the house is paved and covered all around, with extensive patios around the pool and games area as well as from the kitchen overlooking the Barron River. An expanse of grass and greenery extends down to the water's edge, with no-one between you and the country views.

When it comes to accommodating the toys (or more practical bits), there is a detached high clearance steel frame shed (10mx 14m) with concrete floor, three phase power, lockable workroom, mezzanine storage and even its own bathroom. Perfect for the caravan, boat and more.

A welcome "home" whether its year round or just a place to gather the family, this is a rare property, deserving of your inspection.

Ref #: 20673270

Impressively set across a single level without a single internal stair in sight, this elegantly modern home is elevated among the tree tops with views across Cairns, from mountain ranges to the City and bay.

Designed with purpose, central open plan living and dining flows through from the front of the home to the rear, assisted by expansive use of glass and soaring ceilings to bring the outside in and allow you to entertain as you like. Whether relaxing on the front deck enjoying the view and an evening glass of wine, inside by the stunning kitchen enjoying the enticing aromas of dinner or under the cover of the rear patio, overlooking the 26m lap pool, you and your family will be spoilt for choice.

Expanding out from this central hub, the southern wing features 3 ensuited bedrooms, with the master suite offering one of the most opulent (but practical) layouts we have had the pleasure of offering in a home, with full length mirrors and stunning timber cabinetry to the main robe, bath with a view in the ensuite and direct deck access to step out and enjoy from the moment you awaken.

To the northern end, a further 2 bedrooms (home office/study) await, in addition to a dedicated home theatre room with projector and screen, powder room, wine cellar and a laundry befitting the rest of the home - with an enclosed drying balcony, ample storage and room for all the odds and ends you can imagine.

Beyond the home itself, there is internal accommodation for 2 vehicles in addition to a detached, high clearance shed with remote roller door and room for larger boats, caravans, cars, bikes and more, with an attached workshop and even its own WC. A large flat lawn directly in front of the house provides plenty of space for children and pets and the gently winding driveway is of a high standard, combining privacy and all weather access.

Set on over 1.8Ha* of elevated freehold, you could be anywhere, with nary a neighbour in sight, yet you remain just 20 minutes from the middle of the Cairns CBD and less than 30 minutes drive from both domestic and international airports.

Designed and built to the highest of standards, this is a home the likes of which is rarely seen in our market and offered as the original owner relocates south.

Private inspections are welcomed. For more information or to arrange your viewing, contact Tom Quaid at Colliers International.

Inspired by the Italian Renaissance style of Andrea Palladio and overseen by architect Andrew Simpson of Total Project Group, 21 Knott Court, Whitfield is a masterpiece by any measure and now presented to market as its original owners relocate permanently.

One of the Region's finest residences, this home is majestic not just in style but in scale as well, offering a total of 1,441m2* (over 15,000 square feet*) of living, the majority of which sits on a single level, perched upon just shy of 7000m2* of some of Cairns' most sought after residential real estate, high in the foothills of the Whitfield Ranges overlooking the City and framed by rainforest reserve.

Elegant and luxurious throughout, from the graceful porte cochere that greets guests on arrival, to the stunning 5m* high ceilings of the central living area to each panel of hand selected timber in the cabinetry found throughout, nothing has been left to chance in crafting something truly unique in the Australian market.

The main residence features 4 ensuited bedrooms, from a stunning master suite to put the Palazzo Versace to shame, twinned bedrooms sharing a central music room, to a guest suite with private bar and terrace looking out to the surrounding rainforest and rear lawn.

Additional spaces include a dedicated gymnasium (or 5th bedroom) with its own private terrace, two timber panelled offices and a wine cellar with a difference.

In keeping with its old-world design, living spaces are sumptuous and thoughtful, with formal dining as well as both casual and formal lounges, all of which take in breathtaking views of the City. The kitchen is a centrepiece all of its own, with Gaggenau appliances, granite benches, butler's pantry and practical touches throughout.

Downstairs, a completely self-contained guest apartment provides a further two ensuited bedrooms, private living and dining, full kitchen and laundry facilities, private balcony and courtyard and a separate entrance. Perfect for visiting family, guests or staff. Parking is more than provided for with an 8 car underground garage with workshop, and its own city views.

Overlooking the 17m* pool with its stunning blue mosaic style, there are multiple terraces to provide both viewing platforms and break-out areas, combining to create one of the premiere entertaining venues in Far North Queensland.

Held within a single family since construction, the original owners are now committed elsewhere and the time has come for the property to be released into new hands.

Words and images, however good can only take us so far, to truly appreciate the grandeur of this home, you must see it to believe it.

To secure your inspection of one of Far North Queensland's premiere homes, contact Tom Quaid or Jay Beattie at Colliers International, Cairns.

Formal offers encouraged.
