A Developer's Dream | 2,155m² with Dual Frontage and Flexible Future Potential

Held by the same family for generations since the late 1940s, 37 Machan Street, Machans Beach presents an opportunity that is becoming increasingly rare to find. Occupying an impressive 2,155m² allotment with dual street access, this exceptional property offers unlimited potential just moments from the beachfront and only minutes from Cairns CBD and the International Airport.
Whether you're searching for a substantial family estate, your next renovation project, an investment with future upside or a large-scale development opportunity (STCA), this is a property that rewards vision.
The original residence, dating back to the late 1940s, remains full of character and offers comfortable accommodation while providing the perfect foundation for restoration, extension or complete reinvention. Complementing the home are expansive sheds and workshops, a pebblecrete swimming pool added during the 1990s and an abundance of usable land rarely found this close to the coastline.
With its generous dimensions and dual street frontage, the property presents exciting possibilities for future subdivision, redevelopment or additional dwellings (subject to Council approval), making it equally appealing to developers and long-term investors.
Surrounded by established tropical gardens and positioned within one of Cairns' most tightly held beachside communities, opportunities of this scale and history seldom come to market.
Property Features:
• First time offered for sale in over 80 years
• Expansive 2,155m² allotment
• Valuable dual street access
• Original late-1940s residence with renovation potential
