Get away from the drizzle & hot humid weather yet only 1 ½ hours drive to Cairns. This property is a rare find in the slightly dryer part of the Tablelands which has as many sunshine days as Mareeba but the cooler Tableland climate. There is an abundance of permanent crystal creek water with sandy beach like banks. It is like being at the beach without the stingers. Great sandy swimming holes and rapids. The water is a drawcard on this unique property. This amazing property is surrounded by water, there is a swimming pool which has been built into the side of the slope and the surface of the water is at lounge room window level so that you can look out from the house to the tranquillity of the pool. The beautifully restored and renovated miner’s cottage boasts 2 bedrooms and a library which could easily be turned into a 3rd bedroom. The main bedroom has an ensuite and all the bedrooms are of generous size. The house has a newly renovated and equipped kitchen with dishwasher, gas oven and cook tops, it also has a wood stove. It has a separate lounge room with an open fireplace and a unique style bar. Outside is a huge 10m x 10m undercover wooden deck to sit back and enjoy the views and sip your champagne by the resort style pool. For the caretaker there is a 7m caravan with tropical awning, shower amenities and composting toilet. This whole property is powered on solar energy with 12 solar panels which power the homestead and an extra 2 panels for the hot water system. The caretaker’s quarters are also separately solar powered. The property has a backup commercial generator and water is pumped from the creek from a Ram system to a holding tank which gravity feeds back to the homestead and the caretaker’s residence.
