Last Listing description (December 2022)

The sleepy beachside community of Newell Beach is one of Far North Queensland's best kept secrets. Just 20 minutes north of Port Douglas, Newell is for those who enjoy life away from people, noise, diaries, appointments, . It's just palm trees, sun and sand, on the doorstep of 2 UNESCO World Heritage areas, the Daintree Rainforest and The Great Barrier Reef. It's little wonder that David Attenborough called this area the most extraordinary place on Earth!

'Pearl' was lovingly designed and built by the current owners around 15 years ago, to be their getaway, a regular escape from their hectic city lives, to give their family an alternate environmental experience, a world of coconuts, sand cays, fishing, snorkelling, water dragons, cassowaries and turtles!

There's really nothing quite like absolute beachfront, but these properties are rare. Nothing between you and the beach, no traffic noise, just the tropical breeze in the palm trees above and the vast view of the sun sparkling on the ocean through the beach almond trees. At night, the feature lighting displays the trees on the foreshore and you can also see the twinkle of the lights of Port Douglas to the south and the lighthouse on Low Isles to the east. You can only imagine how wonderful it is at sunrise! The two and half kilometre Newell Beach is clean and pristine. There's a local convenience store for groceries and for anything else, the sugar town of Mossman is just down the road.

Upon arrival, the electronic gates reveal the cobblestone driveway which then leads you to a double-door entry and pots with lotus lilies. Once inside, it all opens up in front of you, with a view all the way out to the pool and the ocean.

Purpose built for the location, this is a large 4 bedroom/3 bathroom home on an enormous block of 1012sqm, made to feel even larger with the expanse of cleared land between it and the beach. This home is luxurious in both design and quality. You just wouldn't build a house like this in any other climate. Every space opens-up entirely with bi-folding doors, bringing the tropical landscaping in and bringing you out into the surrounding tropical paradise.

Internally, the extra high ceilings really add to the feeling of spaciousness. Every room has ceiling fans and air-conditioning, but through most of the year you'll enjoy it all open with the cooling easterly breezes. The galley style kitchen is complete with European appliances and features a gorgeous breakfast counter within a tropical garden courtyard. There are 2 very separate living spaces to accommodate everyone. Brilliantly designed with two beach-facing master suites, each with walk-in robes and generous en-suites. Two additional king-size bedrooms share a stunning 3rd bathroom.

Pearl has over 150sqm of outdoor undercover dining and living areas, all poolside, to truly embrace the tropical lifestyle. You'll enjoy the outdoor kitchen, which includes a 6-burner gas barbeque, bar-fridge and sink. Such is the size and the design of this fabulous beach house, there are multiple dining areas and courtyards for large groups to enjoy.

This pool is large and inviting, enjoying glorious sunshine through most of the day. Its a saltwater pool and has a heater for the cooler months, so you can swim all year round.

These features all make for a very popular holiday rental property. The owners book their personal time and have it managed locally for holiday bookings and strong income in their absence. You can inherit their future bookings or choose to keep it all for yourself. The choice is yours.

The double car garage is generous and has a large storeroom to the side. This is ideal to keep personal belongings secure whilst the house is holiday-let. In fact the current owners keep a car and a boat in the garage also, all locked away just for their personal use. The Newell boat ramp is conveniently just 100m away, you'll be out enjoying the reef in no time! Snapper Island, surrounded by fringing reef and a Mecca for local anglers, is within 10 minutes by boat or jetski.

Every detail has been considered in this cleverly designed home. It is the ideal beach house, in the ideal location, to make lasting family memories.
