Angela Martin: Hi, I’m Angela Martin. Welcome to 6 Fairyland Road in Kuranda. What a fabulous name, Fairyland Palms. We talk about location, location, location. In this instance, it is an extra location because it is one of the more sought-after locations, positions, places to live, and I mean Fairyland Road in the whole of Kuranda. Notwithstanding its history, notwithstanding the fact that it is just absolutely obscene beautiful.
We’ll talk about that as we go through, you know that we will. In the meantime, we are going to have a wander through 4.5 luxurious acres. Where in Kuranda are you going to find 4.5 acres of land with all the yumminess that goes with it? Let’s go in and have a look, good old explore. Before we do, don’t forget to subscribe, press that notification bell, you’re going to fall in love with it.

I did just say where on earth are we going to find 4.5 acres of pristine, beautiful land? This is it. It’s rare, it’s unheard of, you’ll never find another. Of course, the history too, as I mentioned, you must Google this, on Fairyland, is just phenomenal. This actually was one of the original Palm nurseries in the ’80s. It is called Fairyland Palms. It is just beautiful. To give you a sense of the size of the land, we’ve got about 120 meters across the front and about 140 meters all the way to the back. If you’re going to build, you could use this perhaps just as a little sleepover, but that has fantastic spots over past the dam that we’re going to explore. Let’s go in and let’s start with the shed.
[music]
This is unashamedly about the land, but there just happens to be a shed on there. We’ve got a two entrances, we’ve got just up here on the on this side. Then about 100 north meters along, we’ve actually got another secular bit, if you like, so we can drive all the way round. This is super duper functional. We’ve got concrete floor, we’ve got another, obviously, roller door on the other side. They open and they close. Of course they do, Angela. Then we’ve got a nice big fan, plenty of ventilation. Another little roller door here, which would have been a single place for your car.
We’ve got running water. We’ve got breezes, we’ve got views. Then we’ve got a fabulous little deck out back. That, I don’t know if you can hear. We can actually hear running water. There’s a creek just over on the other side and it has been raining, so it is flowing and it sounds fabulous. Height, fresh air, you could have a cup of tea here whilst you’re building your house. Just a great little spot, could end up like a little rumpus area or an art studio, or something. That down there is your outdoor shower, which we’ll have a look at. In fact, just pop your little head down in here.
We’ve got a shower here. We’ll walk around and we’ll have a look. Then we have a composting loo. Come down this way. Up here, up the little balustrading, into your own little cute outhouse. It works. Don’t know how many people in the bush would have loved these. Of course, it’s actually got, believe it or not, a little bit leadlight window in the side, just for a little bit of extra je ne sine quoi. I think that means that little bit of something. It’s a good, solid shed. It’s got plenty of natural light. It has got running water. We do have power. Beautiful sparkly day. I’m just going to meet you round the other side, and we’re going to an explore of the garden.
[music]
Isn’t it just a brilliant little back area there? You can still hear that music. Then, of course, we’ve got this sparkly, sparkly– Look at the light coming through these palms. Unbelievably fabulous. That’s just a little deck there on the side that we looked at when we were on the inside. That was the other entrance that we spoke about itself. We’re going to head down to the dam. The land, the 4.5 acres is usable, open, bright, and sunny on Fairyland Road section. Then if we actually turn around this way, we can actually see that we start to go into rainforest. It’s open light rainforest.
If you were going to build your dream home, you could be up and over the other side of the dam, and you would think you were in another world. Unbelievably fabulous. Of course, we’ve got to watch because we have had so much rain, you can probably hear my little feet sloshing in the background. Now, the land has been sculpted. It’s easy to get all the way around front to back. I just have to show you this little bit here before we head down. We’ve got a little bit of a road. Let’s just see how we can explain this. We’ve got the road that comes up and goes up there onto Fairyland, that’s a little U shape if you like. You can come in either way.
Then we have this other really beautifully, easy-walk sculpting that goes all the way down here. That takes us round the dam, which is just there. Before we do, I just have to show you this. That’s the bore pump, just in case you’re interested. We have got bore water and as said, we’ve got mains power. This, just watch your little head as you come under here, is fabulous.
We’re not going to go too far, but I just– Oops, come on in. I just had to show you this. Look at how the light changes. Look at how the foliage changes. If ever you wanted a rainforest shower, splish, splish, splash in the rainforest against majestic trees like that, here we go. Then behind us is actually part of the dam which runs all the way through to the other side. You can just have a bit of a quick sneak-peek down in here, and then we are going to go back into the open sunshine, and we’re going to walk round the dam and head to the other side.
[music]
How brilliant was that pandanus? Look at that. Of course, you would have seen those trees with the vines, it is spectacular. We’re just going to walk. It’s quite a long walk, because remember, you have 4.5 acres. We’re going to head down there and I’m going to meet you at the other end, and we’re going to have a look at that dam.
[music]
Isn’t this just absolutely breathtaking? We’ve come down quite a long way that could be a road and we’re going to walk around the dam. We’ve seen the dam from this side as we came down, just so that you know where you’re at. That’s the little shed, just up there. Then Fairyland Road just runs parallel pretty much to where we’re standing. We’re going to have a view of the dam just as we go round the corner. Can you hear that water? You must be able to hear that. Angela, shut up. It’s just with the bamboo, with the water in the creek.
Then you were very own dam. Again, from an orientation point of view, this is where we came down and we’ve walked along the little pathway here. You could swim in that and who would think that? In the good old halcyon days, if you have children, where your kids could walk to school, they could jump on their bikes and collect the other children as they cycle to school, and the fact that we’re at the end of north through road, and we’re only five minutes into Kuranda Village and so close to the Steiner school/ You wouldn’t imagine it in 1 million lifetimes that this could be yours.
It feels absolutely fabulous. We are eventually going to get up to the other side. Now, the dam again, just so that you get a sense of scale. This is less than halfway to the back. We said round about 140 meters from the front of Fairyland Road, all the way up to the end. Look at that fabulous bamboo. The dam is on this side of the half. You’ve probably got, I don’t know, another 70 or 80 meters in that direction that, again, you could build your dream home. We’re just going to take it in. We’re going to head up there and we’re just going to have a sneak peek round the back.
[music]
Wow. This is just like something out of Indonesia where you are just so you could meditate. You could do yoga. It is a very zen feeling, and it’s on your property. We are getting there. We are getting there, we’re nearly there. The walk is just absolutely magic. I’m going to head round that corner, I’m going to see you when we get there.
[music]
We did say, how far away from the modern world would you like to be? You literally are five minutes in the car to Kuranda. Not even that and we are so close to the Aquatic Center. That’s if the kids or you decide not to jump in the dam, but we actually have the swimming pool within 10-minute walk, 5-minute walk. Everything is just so close. We can see, we’ve come all the way around here. We’ve come round a little pathway here and then we’re coming up here. We’ve got a little bit of a tree here, so we’ll just pop under here. Under here, come. Come under.
This is where I was talking about. Now, it goes for ages too. We’re not going to go for ages, for ages, for ages, but it opens up. We have got, again, fabulous palms. Remember in the ’80s, this was one of the original palm nurseries in Kuranda. It’s all open, easily trimmed away. Then if you turn round here and you look at what your potential view would be, you get your very on water view. You can hear the creek. You’re away from the whole world. Can hear the birdsong. You can hear the birdsong. This, I’m just going to walk through so you can see how easy it is.
You can see that it’s flat. It’s not on the side of a hill. You can see that it’s doable. You can see that you have all this absolutely pristine magic space. Take it all in. It’s unique. It’s never to be gotten ever again. You cannot find acreage blocks like this, let alone 4.5. I’m said that for the 300th time because it’s magic, it’s special. You will not replace it and you won’t find it on Fairyland Road, should never say never. The likelihood of you ever finding it on Fairyland Road is zero.
It’s quiet neighbourhood , quiet suburb. Again, you’ve got the water, closeness to school, closeness to village. You’ve got power, you’ve got water, and you’ve got that fabulous little shed that you can start your brand new life in.
