Your very own house in the Daintree Rainforest
Can you see it? The luscious foliage, with sunlight streaming overhead. The crystal-clear creeks running through mossy stones, accompanied by the sound of trickling water. The bright plumage of kingfishers and fantails scattered among the branches, and melodious bird calls all around you. At 38 Stonewood Road, Daintree, you could wake up to this every single day - because with a home in the world’s oldest living rainforest, all of nature's wonders are right on your doorstep.
With 3.24 acres of natural rainforest and two joining water courses meandering through the property, this sale is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to harness and incredible water licence of spring fed pristine water directly from the Daintree. The property comes with a Queensland state issued water permit lasting until 2111 that allows you to bottle up to 100,000 litres a day.
The pristine waters of the Daintree Rainforest
The property also features a brand-new, purpose-built, fully-sealed bottling shed that is 4.5 m high and measures 6 x 6 metres. The shed comes with bottling stock on hand and business-registered labelling. With the high marketability of Daintree water in the growing bottled water market, this property comes with a guaranteed income stream.
Two residences sit on the property. The one closest to the water bottling shed is the roundhouse, an octagonal two-level loft adjacent to a carport with room for four cars. The lower level consists of an open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area, with a separate laundry room, bathroom, and bedroom. The upper level is a loft space that makes for a perfect master bedroom.
The exquisitely-designed main residence at 38 Stonewood Rd
The other residence, a one-bedroom, one-storey cottage, also comes fully equipped. The cottage features a similar open-plan living and kitchen area. There is also an expansive deck that allows you to enjoy the natural views of the rainforest. Both homes are powered by hydro-electric and solar systems, allowing you to live off the grid.
The property's charming cottage, which could be rented on Airbnb for an additional income stream
These impeccably maintained dwellings allow you to live on site and/or rent one out as a holiday home through Airbnb or a similar business, generating an alternate revenue stream in addition to the water licence. Letting both homes currently generates over $110,000 per annum, making it another successful business opportunity bundled in with purchasing the property.
With swimming holes, natural waterfalls, and a stunning green landscape, this property allows its owners to experience the joys of living in nature in a financially stable way. What's more, you don't have to sacrifice urban comforts and amenities for an outdoors lifestyle with this property - the bustling city of Cairns (with its domestic and international airport) is only two hours away, and the laid-back beach town of Port Douglas just one hour. With a location like this, it's easy to see why this is the first time 38 Stonewood Rd has been on the market in 20 years.
One of the property's numerous waterholes
