STYLE
Cape House at Cape Kimberley, Daintree, is a Thai inspired residence of exceptional comfort and total privacy, set within manicured tropical gardens and 145 acres of private virgin Daintree rainforest, adjoining the Daintree National Park. With 180 degree panoramas of the Coral Sea, rainforest, Daintree River, Port Douglas, Low Isles and Cairns, you’ll never want to leave the property.
ACCOMMODATION
Cape House is uniquely furnished with Asian antiques, original artworks, Persian rugs and contemporary homewares. Wide verandahs for relaxing, timber shutters for cooling south east ocean breezes, cathedral ceilings and recycled oak timbers from the old Cairns Brewery and bricks from the Hambledon Sugar Mill complete the 300 sqm of living area.
The master queen bedroom has a huge ensuite opening to a private rainforest verandah. Two further queen bedrooms, guest lounge and second bathroom are located discretely at the opposite end of the residence and all feature views to the Daintree River and Port Douglas. A mezzanine loft offers flexible extra space.
The open plan lounge and dining areas enjoy superb natural ventilation in the warmer months, and are made warm in the winter months by a slow combustion stove and ample firewood available.
FEATURES
Awake from a relaxing sleep and amble through tropical orchards and explore natural creeks, waterfalls and private swimming holes alive with abundant bird and wildlife. Or wander down the road to Cape Kimberley beach.
Spend a lazy afternoon on the deep shaded north facing verandah, overlooking lush rainforest and manicured tropical gardens. Sleep, read or daydream on the Javanese day bed and air chair hammocks. A barbeque and outdoor dining for eight make a long lunch irresistible. The timber chef’s kitchen opens to a further verandah, perfect for watching the evening fall over the rainforest and lights at sea in the distance.
Cape House is the perfect getaway for discerning couples, friends, families or small executive groups needed privacy to write a paper or undertake executive business planning.
