A rare jewel. Want a lifestyle change with an income? Be self-sufficient on this truly eco-friendly property. A unique and easily managed home and boutique business in the heart of the Daintree Rainforest and just a few minutes drive from the award winning Cow Bay beach. Daintree Bungalows is a registered commercial bed and breakfast located on 1.152 hectares (approx 3 acres) of freehold land in the Cape Tribulation section of the Daintree National Park, which is approximately 2 hrs drive north of Cairns International Airport in Far North Queensland. This property is listed in Lonely Planet as one of the best Budget Accommodation stays in the Daintree
The land itself is flat and has easy all weather access. It is completely flood free with a permanent creek running thru the property with a water licence in place allowing pumping rights. It consists of approximately 40% virgin tropical rainforest and 60% cleared and landscaped with an established tropical fruit orchard consisting of some 60 assorted fruit trees and an array of various palm trees. Water is supplied by a series of 3 rainwater tanks linked together with a total storage capacity of 55,000 Lts and pumped around the property by a Grundfos solar friendly soft start demand pressure pump (2006) supplying excellent pressure to the entire property. Power is supplied by a professionally installed state of the art solar power system (2006) with 24 large solar panels and diesel generator backup. Satellite broadband is also connected. Recent changes to the local Daintree town plan have made it impossible to replicate this type of property on a block of this size making it unique and ensuring an environment free from future over-development. The fully council approved complex consists of a small timber house (built 2000) with extra sleepout, 4 red cedar ensuite tourist cabins (2 built in 2005 and 2 in 2007) all built by the owner who is a licensed commercial builder, a large 225 sq mt steel shed with toilet, a 6mt x 6mt undercover barbeque/dining area and a small steel mower/generator shed.
