Development/Land

"113 Arlington Esplanade" represents one of the last substantial direct beachfront access sites in the Cairns northern beaches.

The subject property is a 20* minute drive north of the Cairns International Airport in Clifton Beach, one of the premier residential beach suburbs of Cairns, just five* minutes from the tourist-mecca of Palm Cove, and no more than 45* minutes to Port Douglas.

The site has frontage onto Arlington Esplanade foreshore and secondary street frontage onto Yule Avenue and Euston Close, just one street back. The property is vacant, relatively flat, is built up above street level and is free of vegetation in developable areas.

Physically the land retains a natural watercourse which winds through the property and is covered by an easement to protect the water course for drainage purposes. This easement area is substantially forested and provides a buffer to development as well as an ideal backdrop for outdoor usage areas within the development. A council approved private pedestrian bridge, which has also been constructed across the watercourse and provides for additional amenity to the site, also allows for direct access to the esplanade beachfront. The status of the watercourse easement also allows for it to be included in open space contribution calculations whe...
