ESCAPE TO PALM COVE

This spacious apartment, the size of a small house, combines luxury and privacy with access to exceptional facilities at Palm Cove Sanctuary

NESTLED inside a luxurious Palm Cove complex is this fully furnished apartment – the space of a small house – filled with natural light.

Apartment 10 at 6 Cedar Rd, Palm Cove, will be auctioned on April 14 and could be the ideal purchase for investors or nesters.

The three-bedroom apartment inside Palm Cove’s Sanctuary complex, which has onsite management, has been returning about $70,000 per year as an investment property, but RE/MAX agent Tiffany Krause said the gated community also attracted plenty of owneroccupiers.

“The moment you step foot into the secure gated complex, you are immediately overwhelmed with the feeling of luxury and privacy as you enter a secluded world of living,” she said. “This well-maintained apartment is located on the second floor of the central complex with access to a lift.

“There are owner-occupiers and holiday lets in the complex. There is no other complex like it as it is tucked away in leafy surrounds with privacy being the utmost drawcard.”

One of the standout features of this property is the kitchen, which has quality stainless steel appliances including a four-burner and teppanyaki grill plate, gas cooktop, electric oven, canopy rangehood, built-in microwave and natural marble benchtops.

However, it’s the seamless transition from where the food is prepared to where it’s enjoyed that will delight this apartment’s occupiers the most.

“The kitchen is open plan and extends to a casual dining area which has timber bi-fold doors. These open to a small patio which has exceptional views of the Sanctuary lagoon and the surrounding rainforest,” Ms Krause said.

This apartment includes three spacious bedrooms and an ensuite with the main room as well as a walk-in wardrobe and balcony access.

“The main bathroom features a shower over bath, toilet and vanity plus the addition of a separate large internal laundry with auto taps for the washing machine.”

The complex was built over 1.2ha and features 23 apartments, which all have access to exceptional facilities.

“Enjoy the warmer weather and entertain with the expansive pool and spa which also provides … a private barbecue area,” Ms Krause said. “It’s only a moment’s walk to the Palm Cove jetty and beach, shops, cafes and public transport; you will be hard-pressed to find any other property in this calibre.

“It is like nothing else on the market – it is a bespoke design and complex.”

The property will be up for auction from 5.30pm on April 14.

Due to current government guidelines around COVID-19, RE/MAX will accept phone bids only and the auction will be live-streamed through the agency’s Facebook page.

They are also willing to FaceTime any clients looking to bid.

All bidders must be registered.
