Potential and Possibility on a Private 2-Hectare Rainforest Retreat

Set on 2 hectares in Cow Bay, this unique property boasts privacy. Originally two lots, now merged under a single title, the land is bordered on three sides by roads and on the fourth by state-owned land, creating a private and serene rainforest setting.
Built in 2008, the main 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom cottage is a steel-framed, C2 wind-rated home finished in Newport weatherboard cladding and glass louvres. The design provides resilience, a tasteful coastal aesthetic, and excellent cross-breeze ventilation, enhanced by the cleared land and the valley orientation which captures the prevailing wind. This thoughtful combination ensures a naturally comfortable and airy home, complementing the cleared surroundings to create a practical and low-maintenance rainforest retreat.
The open-plan kitchen, lounge, and dining area flows seamlessly to a generous 38sqm veranda, equipped with shade sails and ceiling fans for relaxed tropical living. Both bedrooms are spacious, complemented by a separate laundry and a bathroom with an independent WC. There are ceiling fans and fly screens fitted throughout - enhancing comfort and usability.
The property includes two further unapproved structures, six water tanks totalling 70,000 litres, and three septic systems, providing excellent infrastructure for future expansion or additional accommodation.
Cow Bay is renowned for its peaceful, nature-filled lifestyle while remaining within reach of essential amenities. The property is just minutes from pristine beaches, local cafés/restaurants and Alexandra Bay Primary School while the surrounding Daintree offers endless opportunities for bushwalking, wildlife encounters, and relaxed tropical living. Cape Tribulation lies 29km to the north and to the south, the Daintree Ferry is 16km away, with Mossman (46km), Port Douglas (65km), and Cairns (120km) all within easy reach for supplies, services, and travel.
