A glamorous beachfront property that has hosted international stars and celebrities is well known as a world-class holiday destination. The property, 'Trinity Beach Palace', is now being offered for sale as a private residence - offering a sublime lifestyle in an exclusive tropical paradise. 

Only 15 minutes' drive north of Cairns, Trinity Beach is an upmarket 'boutique' holiday centre with easy access to the Great Barrier Reef and its palm-fringed islands, the rainforest wonderland of Daintree National Park, and the famed attractions of the tropical coast and hinterland.

The home is designed to take full advantage of its idyllic beachfront location. A single-storey linear design, with lofty cathedral ceilings over the main living areas, creates a sense of spaciousness. Floor-to-ceiling glass doors all around provide flow-through ventilation, while individual air conditioning and ceiling fans ensure the perfect indoor climate. Vast open-plan living areas incorporate a choice of sitting and dining areas around a commercial-sized bar and the central gourmet kitchen.

The decor is lavish and exotic, combining African and South Sea island themes, and with an emphasis on natural materials. Columns of quartz from the nearby Atherton tablelands, richly toned timbers and floors of polished marble create an atmosphere of casual elegance.

Five king-sized bedrooms feature silk and velvet fabrics, gilt furniture, and designer bathrooms.

The home includes a safari-themed den and library, a gymnasium, sauna, and golf practice range.

Beyond the wide shady verandah lies an inviting pool with an African-style open bathhouse at one end. Two outdoor bars provide the perfect opportunity to look out over the Coral Sea.
