Last Listing description (February 2026)

Secure your own one-hectare sanctuary in the heart of the Daintree National Parka place where ancient rainforest, coastal beauty, and complete privacy converge.

This exceptional freehold parcel offers lush rainforest exclusivity, with a cleared driveway already in place leading to a private house pad tucked discreetly within the dense landscape. Thoughtfully positioned and naturally secluded, the building envelope can be accessed via either an entrance on Kauri Close or an entrance on Silver Ash Road, providing flexibility, privacy, and ease of access.

With selective and sympathetic clearing, ocean views can be revealed, adding another breathtaking layer to an already remarkable setting. While the property feels a world away, its just a 550 metre stroll to the pristine sands of Cow Bay Beach, where the rainforest meets the Coral Sea.

This is an ideal canvas for those seeking an off-grid lifestyle without compromise. Solar power, rainwater tanks, battery storage, and generator back-up make sustainable living both achievable and comfortable allowing you to live lightly on the land while enjoying modern independence.

Development approval has been granted for a dwelling, with house plans approved, making this a ready-to-build opportunity.

Surrounded by some of the rarest flora and fauna on Earth, the Daintree Rainforest is the oldest continuously surviving tropical rainforest on Earth, estimated to be over 180 million years old and often described as a living encyclopedia of nature, home to species found nowhere else on the planet such as the southern cassowary. Despite welcoming over 400,000 visitors annually, this property remains blissfully hiddenoffering complete discretion, tranquility, and a profound sense of connection to nature. Its a World Heritagelisted landscape where ancient rainforest meets the Great Barrier Reef, creating one of the most biologically rich environments on the planet.

Located just 16.4 kilometres north of the Daintree River Crossing, the property is easily accessed via the daily car ferry, placing Mossman, Port Douglas, and Cairns within comfortable reach for amenities, dining, and world-class recreation.

Opportunities to acquire freehold land of this size, privacy, and proximity to the beach at such an achievable price of $259,000 are exceptionally rare.

This is more than land.
Its a legacy.
A retreat.
A chance to live within one of the most extraordinary ecosystems on Earth.

As Sir David Attenborough once reflected on the Daintree, It is the most extraordinary place on Earth.

Seize this moment and secure your piece of World-Heritage-listed paradise.
