Where else can you secure a beachfront location without paying a premium? 17 Marlin Drive offers an incredible lifestyle and value for money. Positioned on an 800m² lot, with an attractive street presence, this 3 bedroom property enjoys a floor area of 160m² under roof, spacious living areas, covered parking plus a garage/workshop, and a relaxing garden setting with lagoon style pool, a woodland backdrop and the sound of waves gently crashing on the beach.

Leaving the property via the driveway and you’re confronted by the awesome and imposing lush green mountain range, West of Wonga Beach, or walk through the back garden gate, 100m from the shoreline, and you’re surrounded by an open woodland of Beach She-Oak, Beach Almonds, Calophyllum and Pandanus. Extending 10km along the coastline south of the Daintree River, Wonga Beach forms part of an important conservation area supporting 17 different regional ecosystems. Conservation significant Orchids flourish. Fruiting trees of the Littoral Rainforest provide essential habitat for the Southern Cassowary, whilst larger tree species provide roosting habitat for shorebirds during intertidal periods, and shade and protection for incubating Turtle eggs.

Recreation is engrained into the Wonga Beach lifestyle. Horse riding is popular, and ATVs are considered an important addition to life, providing easy access along the golden sandy beaches to the Daintree River’s excellent fishing opportunities. For the boating enthusiasts, Dayman Point Boat Ramp is only 3km down the road, providing access to the vibrant reefs off shore and the Great Barrier Reef. For the youngsters, Wonga Beach Park is also accessed through the woodland walk, beyond the garden gate, boasting a shaded swing park and bbq facilities. And, only 10-minutes by car, you could be on the ferry to explore the Daintree Rainforest, or travelling into the country township of Mossman; the administrative hub of the Douglas Shire and home to all major services including senior school, hospital, post office, shopping facilities and council offices.

The property is sold unfurnished with tenants in residence until 22/10/2024.
