About this property
Rainforest Retreat with Private Pool and Views
Summary:
Set high in the Redlynch Valley, enjoy stunning views and private access to heritage listed tropical rainforest from the comfort of this beautifully styled and well appointed modern home. A great base to explore Cairns CBD, Port Douglas, Palm Cove, Kuranda Village, Daintree Rainforest, and access the Great Barrier Reef. Although with the excellent bushwalking tracks, waterfalls and freshwater swimming so close to the house, you might not want to leave the valley.
The Space:
Where Luxury Meets Ancient Rainforest
Some homes impress. Others leave a lasting impression.
Perched above the lush Redlynch Valley and surrounded by one of the world's oldest tropical rainforests, this extraordinary architect-designed retreat is a private sanctuary where luxury and nature exist in perfect harmony.
Wake to the sounds of native birds echoing through the rainforest. Open the expansive glass doors and let the fresh mountain breeze flow through the home. Spend your days floating in the stunning infinity pool overlooking the valley before gathering with family and friends for sunset drinks on the entertaining deck.
Every space has been thoughtfully designed to blur the line between indoors and out. Natural timbers, soaring ceilings, premium finishes and panoramic rainforest views create a home that feels both sophisticated and deeply connected to its surroundings.
Whether you're enjoying the open-air rain shower in the master suite, relaxing beside the pool or watching butterflies and colourful birdlife from the deck, you'll experience the unique beauty of Tropical North Queensland from every corner of the property.
Despite its peaceful setting, you're only minutes from Crystal Cascades, local cafés and shops, and just a short drive to Cairns, Palm Cove, Kuranda and the Great Barrier Reef.

A Unique Experience
This is more than a holiday home—it's an opportunity to disconnect from everyday life and reconnect with nature, without sacrificing comfort or luxury.
From morning coffee accompanied by birdsong to evenings under a canopy of stars, every moment here feels special. Immerse yourself in the beauty of Tropical North Queensland while enjoying the comfort of a truly luxurious home designed to celebrate its extraordinary natural surroundings.
Guest Access:
You will have access to the whole house and surrounding gardens. Please note the garage is locked and will not be accessible to guests.
The Neighborhood:
Redlynch is in the Freshwater Creek Valley and backs onto the Barron Gorge National Park. With plenty of bushwalking tracks, waterfalls and freshwater swimming it’s a haven for those who enjoy the outdoors.
In 1951 the author Xavier Herbert (1901-84) and his wife, Sadie, settled in Redlynch. He wrote Soldiers Women and Poor Fellow My Country (1975) in Redlynch, and the Herberts' cottage in Kamerunga Road is listed on the Queensland heritage register.
Getting Around:
There is free onsite parking at the house.
If using taxi or Uber, we recommend having them drive you all the way to the house otherwise its a bit of a walk up the driveway. There is room for cars to turn around at the house.
Likewise, if you are ordering a taxi or Uber to the house, be specific and let them know to pick you up at the house at the very top of the driveway.
Example instructions for your driver - "When you reach the T at the top of the street, turn right and continue all the way up. The house is at the top and there is room for your car to turn around."
