Overview
22 Spurwood Road, COW BAY, Daintree QLD
This beautiful family resort is located in the heart of the Daintree Rainforest, just a few minutes' drive from the spectacular Cow Bay Beach. The property, known as DAINTREE BUNGALOWS, is situated on approximately 1.152 hectares (around 3 acres) of freehold land within the Cape Tribulation section of the Daintree National Park, approximately two hours' drive north of Cairns International Airport in Far North Queensland, Australia.
The land is mostly flat to slightly sloping, offering easy all-weather access. It is flood-free and features a permanent creek running through the property, with a Riparian Water License allowing pumping rights from the creek. The property is composed of roughly 50% virgin tropical rainforest and 50% cleared and landscaped areas, including an established tropical fruit orchard with a diverse assortment of fruit trees and various palm trees.
The council-approved complex includes a small timber house built in 2000, which was refurbished in 2021 to serve as a light and inviting caretaker cottage. Additionally, there are four impressive red cedar self-contained tourist cabins, two built in 2005 and two in 2007, constructed by a licensed commercial builder and maintained to a high standard.
A large 225 square meter steel shed has been refurbished to a high standard and now functions as owner accommodation. It features an expansive tiled undercover verandah, a separate bathroom, and a generous carport. This building is approved by the council as a shed only.
On the grounds, there is a 6m x 6m undercover barbecue and dining area designed to maximize outdoor living in this tropical setting. The property also includes an attractive and practical greenhouse with raised growing beds for cultivating home-grown produce.
Water supply is managed through a series of three food-grade poly rainwater tanks linked together, providing a total storage capacity of 55,000 litres. Water is pumped around the property by a Grundfos soft start demand pressure pump. Additionally, a 30-metre deep bore supplies filtered water from the onsite aquifer. The system includes a spare Grundfos soft start pump, ensuring a reliable water supply that has been time-tested.
Power is supplied by a professionally installed solar power system, upgraded in 2025, which includes 24 large solar panels and a 48-volt lithium battery bank. The property is located in Cow Bay, a completely off-grid area.
Connectivity is supported by satellite broadband and mobile network signal availability on the property.
Years of dedicated effort by the current and previous owners have resulted in this property presenting as a near immaculate offering. It is zoned rural residential, with rates approximately $1800 per year.
This property represents a unique opportunity to own a family resort and home in one of Australia's most magnificent rainforest settings, offering a blend of natural beauty, well-maintained accommodation, and sustainable living features.
