Located on the southern boundary of Deepwater National Park, 'Serenity'  with 554m (approx.) of absolute beach frontage is a 121 hectare (approx.) rural retreat.

Speaking to The Real Estate Conversation the current owners said, "From the moment we first entered the property and took in the flora & fauna, plus the long stretch of golden sandy beach, we felt a sense peace and happiness where we decided to create a beach haven for our friends and family."

Purchasing the land in 2004 with the intent of creating a Queenslander beachside holiday paradise, the massive Queenslander was completed in 2006 and has since been a treasured private holiday home enjoyed by family and friends from Australia and Europe.

"We could watch turtles hatch and immerse ourselves in nature and gave us the feeling of owing a piece of paradise for ourselves. It is a place for your mind, body and soul."

The property is located on the southern boundary of Deepwater National Park, 375 km north of Brisbane. Four different species of turtles nest on the beaches in the park and it is the only mainland site where leatherbacks repeatedly return to lay eggs. Multiple bird species occupy the canopies, emus and kangaroos can also be spotted in the park with oystercatchers and others preferring the beach.

The home enjoys extremely spacious open plan kitchen, living, dining areas with 3 large ensuited bedrooms plus an office or 4th bedroom and separate powder room. The home was designed in traditional Queenslander style to suit the lifestyle and tropical climate with all the living spaces and three ensuited main bedrooms open directly onto a wraparound veranda.

Light and airy this home is situated in a slightly elevated position 200 metres from the beachfront capturing the cooling sea breezes without the sea spray. Designed for seamless living both inside and out with 3m high ceilings, Red Gum timber flooring and tiled bathrooms complemented by ceiling fans and deep wrap around verandas, with screens on all windows and most doors allow for continual air flow.

"‘Serenity’ has been a labour of love for the current joint Australian & European based owners who have only ever enjoyed it as a peaceful holiday haven." Michael told The Real Estate Conversation. "Owning almost 121 hectares of land on the coast in Australia’s tropical paradise of Queensland is a dream for many. Top that off by having 554 metres of unpopulated absolute beach frontage and it is a truly unique opportunity."

Fertile soil is ideal for growing fruit and vegetables with mangos, bananas, peaches, limes, macadamia, lychees onsite, (an old mango plantation was a surpise discovery during construction of the driveway). The land could also be developed as income producing, with nearby macadamia farms one example of a potential crop.

There is a secure garage to accommodate up to 4 vehicles an oversize storeroom and laundry room with abundant storage.

A separate fully self-contained 2-bedroom cottage with a three-bay work shed attached is currently occupied by a fulltime caretaker, however it could also be ideal for family or friends or rented as a holiday home if a caretaker was no longer required.
