“I’ve been in the industry for 35 yrs and this is one of the most exciting properties I’ve ever brought to market,” Barbara Wolveridge told LUXURY LIST WEEKEND.

“As soon as you walk into the lounge room, you see breathtaking views of the Coral Sea and two beautiful beaches: water, water, water everywhere. There are magnificent views of mountains, rainforest and water from every room,” she explained. 

“This property is everything anyone could possibly want.”
