This immaculately presented Queenslander offers understated charm & a relaxed tropical village holiday lifestyle, only one street back from the waterfront in highly sought Machans Beach. The home features high ceilings throughout with interesting architectural curved lines, which create an almost nautical ambience. Being legal height, the potential to build underneath is an enormous bonus for those wanting to expand. It also features a fully self contained 2 bedroom 'mini-home' in the back yard allowing for intra generational living or Air B'n'B income enhancement. The three charming light filled bedrooms in the main home feature beautiful casement windows & matching French doors through to the central living space. Two of the bedrooms open directly onto the spacious front verandah overlooking beautiful tropical gardens which create privacy from the street front. Glowing timber floors offer a contrasting "warmth" to the cool tropical home. The functional timber kitchen opens onto a spacious dining area off the central living space. The 'mini-home' comes with a trailer for mobility if required and a new bathroom has been installed adjacent to the laundry downstairs. Machans Beach is only 10 minutes to Cairns City and the international airport, is within the Cairns State High School capture zone and has its own primary school. Just a short walk to the beach, local cafe, post office, general store and local bar & restaurant. Lovers of the outdoors will appreciate the boat ramp, fishing, strolls on the beach, the dedicated dog beach & nature reserve walks. Call Chris or Deb to arrange your private inspection.
