Last Listing description (June 2026)

Immersed within the world's oldest living rainforest, Kurangee (place of many Cassowaries) is an architecturally designed tropical retreat where luxury, sustainability and nature exist in complete harmony.

Completed in 2023, this contemporary pavilion-style residence has been thoughtfully crafted for the Far North Queensland climate, with elevated covered walkways connecting beautifully appointed living spaces designed to embrace natural light, rainforest outlooks and cooling breezes.

Privately positioned at either end of the home are two luxurious bedroom pavilions, each featuring elegant ensuites with timber vanities, stone basins and rain showers, opening via timber bifold doors onto their own covered decks. The king suite also enjoys an outdoor freestanding bath immersed in the rainforest canopy.

The central entertaining pavilion forms the heart of the home, offering open-plan kitchen, dining and lounge spaces that flow seamlessly to the pool pavilion and firepit terrace - an exceptional setting for relaxed tropical living and entertaining.

Designed for self-sufficient living without compromise, the property is supported by an advanced, automated off-grid system including 18 solar panels, 12kW lithium battery storage, Fronius inverter technology and automatic Kubota diesel generator backup. Water is supplied via a natural spring bore servicing substantial storage tanks.

Beyond the residence, walking tracks meander through areas of untouched lowland rainforest featuring ancient cycads, towering fan palms, fern groves, and Cassowaries, while a peaceful creek borders the rear of the property.

Currently operating as the highly rated "Kurangee Rainforest Pavilion" Airbnb guest retreat, the property offers flexibility as a private sanctuary, luxury escape or income-producing eco-retreat.

Located approximately 4km from Cow Bay Beach (full cycling and walking concreted path the entire way) and close to restaurants, national park boardwalks and iconic Daintree attractions, this is a rare opportunity to secure a refined rainforest lifestyle in one of the world's most extraordinary natural environments.
