This rare offering presents an outstanding opportunity to secure one of the most unique properties currently available in the Cairns market - now made even more compelling with a substantial $150,000 price reduction.
Positioned in the historic fishing village of Machans Beach, this tightly held suburb was once best known as a fisherman's retreat and holiday shack destination. Today, Machans Beach is rapidly evolving, with growing buyer interest, strong lifestyle appeal, and increasing recognition from investors - while still remaining relatively undiscovered compared with many southern markets.
The main residence is a fully renovated 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home with parking for three vehicles. Elevated to capture water views and cooling sea breezes, the home offers a relaxed coastal lifestyle with comfort, character, and charm.
Adding further value is the second dwelling - the former Sea Scouts boatshed - which remains largely in original condition. This presents an exciting opportunity for renovation, reinvention, or future income potential, making the property especially appealing for buyers seeking lifestyle, flexibility, and long-term upside.
Imagine waking to the sound of the ocean, enjoying gentle sea breezes, and being just metres from the boat ramp, Barron River, your boat, and the Coral Sea. This is a lifestyle property in every sense - offering space, water access, character, and opportunity in one exceptional package.
