7 Cambanora Place, Mooroobool, Qld 4870

Elevated within tightly held City View Estate, this stately Federation-inspired residence feels a world away from the traditional Cairns home. From its commanding red-brick façade and English-style gardens to the central fountain, stained glass, ornate fretwork and beautiful heritage-inspired detailing, this is a home with genuine personality.

Built in 1996 and occupying a fully fenced 748m² allotment, the home combines the grandeur and character of an English country residence with the relaxed tropical lifestyle Cairns is famous for.

Step through the formal entrance and the character continues. Formal lounge and dining rooms feature intricate detailing and heritage-style brass toggle switches, while a country timber kitchen and adjoining breakfast area provide a warm and welcoming heart to the home.

The scale of the ground floor is impressive. A separate entertainer's room incorporates its own second kitchen with granite benchtops, built-in fridge, Miele dishwasher and bar, while the expansive family room has an almost conservatory-like feel, surrounded by glass and enhanced by stained-glass features, decorative fretwork and ceiling roses.

Upstairs, all four bedrooms enjoy separation from the living areas. The master suite includes a walk-in robe, ensuite and the wonderfully indulgent addition of a spa bath within the bedroom. Three further bedrooms include built-in robes and are serviced by a character-filled family bathroom with an original-style claw-foot bath, brass detailing, walk-in shower and timber vanity.

Outside is every bit as special. Completely private and framed by a rainforest backdrop, the swimming pool features a waterfall and adjoining air-conditioned pool house, while beyond the pool established fruit trees and a secluded rainforest garden create another little escape of their own.

It's distinctive, wonderfully individual and almost impossible to compare - a home that could have you believing you're on the leafy outskirts of Brisbane rather than minutes from Cairns.
