This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to own a wonderful and sought-after lot in the private and exclusive Nobby Headland, Magnetic Island. Overlooking the picturesque Picnic Bay beach and jetty with panoramic views to the Coral Sea this piece of paradise sits naturally amongst the bush, boulders and wildlife.
This lot is uniquely situated directly above the beach and has direct access by a short walking track to the golden sand and tranquil waters of Picnic Bay. With an area totaling 1423 sq. metres, there is a generous building envelope to create your dream home in the tropics. The owners have completed their own design of a magnificent residence that is fully compliant and approved within the Nobby Headland covenants and principles. The architectural plans demonstrate what is possible on this site taking full advantage of beautiful views from every room. Unfortunately due to a change in personal circumstances they can no longer retire to Magnetic Island so this opportunity presents itself for an astute purchaser.
Magnetic Island sits in the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park yet only a 25 minute ferry ride from Townsville, but a world away in lifestyle and beauty. Townsville is easily accessible with affordable direct flights from Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Darwin and Cairns.
