Welcome to 13 Merrybrook Street, Freshwater, where timeless charm meets unlimited potential in one of Cairns' most tightly held and highly sought-after neighbourhoods.
Set on a generous 812m2 allotment backing directly onto tranquil rainforest, this is the kind of property that rarely becomes available. The location is exceptional, the setting is irreplaceable, and the opportunity is simply extraordinary.
Comfortable as it stands, this much-loved home offers incredible scope for those with vision. With a practical floorplan, generous proportions and solid foundations already in place, it's ready for someone to add their own style and create something truly special.
Inside, you'll discover three generous bedrooms, two bathrooms, spacious open-plan living and dining beneath soaring cathedral-style ceilings with striking exposed timber beams, and a functional central kitchen that connects seamlessly to the living spaces. Outdoors, an expansive covered entertaining area overlooks the sparkling in-ground swimming pool and lush backyard, with the rainforest providing a breathtaking natural backdrop and complete privacy from rear neighbours.
A large shed adds outstanding versatility, whether you're searching for a workshop, hobby space, additional storage or the ultimate home project, while the tandem carport provides practical everyday convenience.
Whether you're looking to renovate and reap the rewards, secure a quality investment or purchase your future family home in an unbeatable location, 13 Merrybrook Street presents an opportunity that is becoming increasingly difficult to find.
Currently leased at $710 per week until January 2027, the property provides immediate rental income while you prepare your future plans.

Properties in Merrybrook Street are tightly held for good reason. The lifestyle is exceptional, the community is welcoming, and opportunities to secure a home in this location are becoming increasingly rare.
The foundations have been laid. The location is second to none. The backyard is unforgettable. All that's missing is your vision.
You can renovate a home. You can modernise a kitchen. You can transform a bathroom. But you'll never recreate an 812m² rainforest-backed allotment in one of Freshwater's most tightly held streets. Opportunities like this don't come along often.
