Cairns marina mansion poised to blitz suburb sales record
A marina mansion is poised to become the first $5 million-plus sale in this Cairns beaches suburb, and if it achieves its asking price, will be just $250,000 shy of the Cairns sales record.
A marina mansion is poised to blitz the Trinity Park suburb record, and if it achieves its asking price, will only be $250,000 shy of the Cairns sales record.
Located at 136 Harbour Drive, the four bedroom, waterfront residence is listed with a price guide of $5.25 million --- a whopping $1.2 million above the suburb record of $4.05 million set for a Ragamuffin Quay address in December last year.
The current residential sales record is $5.5 million, which was achieved by a Trinity Beach showstopper in 2022.
The Trinity Park residence os currently listed with Paradise Property Group agents Sean Thorpe and Jan Hooghe.
“Harnessing the brute strength of commercial grade steel, concrete and glass, this place is cutting-edge and the very best in Australian coastal design where beauty, strength and functionality combine,” the listing says.
“It’s possibly one of the best properties that have ever been built at Blue Water Marina, offering unlimited entertainment space, uninterrupted views over the water and direct access to the Great Barrier Reef.”
Called Belvedere, the custom-built home has a secure gate house with electronic key access and a guest intercom.
It leads through to an impressive 4m-high solid timber entrance door art gallery and reception foyer.
Inside the three-level residence boasts 850sq m under roof, with lift access.
There is also a 10-bay underground garage with high clearance to accommodate SUV and muscle cars, a pool room and gym.
There is also a water sports and tackle room with a workshop and reel bench, custom-built commercial grade steel rod racks and extensive cabinetry for storage, plus direct access to the jetty and pontoon.
Meanwhile, the upper level is home exclusively to the master retreat, which includes a walk-in robe, ensuite and balcony, with voids to the outdoor lounge and indoor lounge below.
The main level is also home to three further bedrooms, each with their own ensuites and robes, an office and laundry.
Also on this level is the vast open plan kitchen, dining and living spaces, which open out to the outdoor lounge and dining spaces overlooking the pool.
The kitchen has black and white custom cabinetry with one-piece hand-cut Italian tile and stone counter and splash backs, premium appliances and a walk-in butler’s pantry.

The outdoor kitchen and entertainment area has a 12-seater outdoor feature high table, a commercial outdoor kitchen, BBQ and grill, a full bar, ice machine, wine and bar fridges.
The residence also boasts its very own 16m private jetty and jet ski pontoon with fully serviced water and power, a motorhome and boat shed.
Other features include a 40kW solar system with a battery storage system, 3-phase power and a generator, all housed in the underground control and communications room, plus an additional 20,000L water storage tank.
The 708sq m property is also framed by block walls and low maintenance tropical gardens with a fully automated watering system and 20m of water frontage.
