Perched on the top of a mountain and surrounded by rainforest, this stunning property enjoys a panorama of views that has to be seen to be appreciated. Amazing lightning displays in the western sky are prevalent in the summer, with mist rolling slowly over the mountains in the cooler months.

Only 30 minutes drive from the tropical village of Port Douglas and the world heritage listed Great Barrier Reef and Daintree Rainforest, you will enjoy first class restaurants, bars & boutique shopping, only to return home to the peace, privacy and tranquillity.

The cottage itself has been totally and tastefully refurbished to take advantage of the stunning outlook of Mount Lewis, the Rex Range and beyond. Inside you will find two comfortable bedrooms plus an office or third bedroom, an open plan living area with expansive glass doors front and rear allowing for lots of light and taking in the wonderful views and tropical landscaped gardens. A built in fireplace will keep you cosy in winter.

The large modern kitchen comprises two-pac enamel cabinetry and a 900mm gas stove and electric oven making meal preparation a joy. A servery opens out from the kitchen to the undercover entertaining area – the perfect place to relax and soak up the absorbing views. A 6 x 4 metre overhanging deck has been engineered for an outdoor spa if desired with power ready for connection. A large Jasmine covered rainwater tank has an outdoor shower attached.

You will love the abundance of wildlife and birds in the native trees and flowers and splashing in the many birdbaths. Green tree frogs live amongst the foliage and in the evenings bandicoots and wallabies emerge to feed with their young. Many mornings the paddy melon wallabies will come in to graze in the grass. Many tropical fruit and citrus trees also adorn the property.

Julatten averages temperatures 5 degrees lower than the coast and without the high humidity. The property’s elevation allows for total privacy and is one of the very few places in Julatten with perfect mobile reception due to the clear line of sight to the communications tower in the distance.
