Phone Enquiry ID: 226667

If you’ve ever dreamt of an idyllic tropical island lifestyle within reach of all the modern amenities, then this is for you. Situated in north Queensland, the island has easy access via multiple vehicle and passenger ferry services daily to Townsville. This major centre with regional infrastructure, excellent medical facilities, an airport, university, schools, large retail and commercial outlets and entertainment is only 20 minutes from the island.

Located just 700 m from Magnetic Island’s iconic Horseshoe Bay on the seaward side, this property offers you the chance to build the safe haven of your dreams in a uniquely beautiful, relaxed and healthy environment. With 80% conserved as National Park, the island is fringed by hoop pines and sculpturesque granite boulders tumbling into a turquoise sea perfect for fishing, sailing, diving and other watersports. Discover the island’s numerous walking tracks and hidden waterfalls during the wet season. Encounter wildlife on a daily basis and learn to identify the dozens of bird species and thousands of butterflies that frequent the property seasonally.

The 10 acres are level and encompass eucalyptus stands, native grasses, large established trees and an area of paperbarks and pandanus. Approximately 70% is native forest and the rest is cleared with some established trees. Town water and electricity are in place and a site for a working shed already established. The owners are happy to provide access to their network to facilitate building contractors, suppliers, transport and other contacts to assist.

‘Maggie’ offers her residents a delightful, warm sense of community with a diverse and interesting population from multiple demographics. Groups interested in art, conservation, culture, history and exercise assemble regularly and with doctors, hairdressers, supermarkets, cafes, restaurants and boutiques all located on-island, you really don’t ever need to leave!

There are very few places left in Australia where you can live the remote life free from the daily stresses of urban life, yet be transported to all the wants and requirements of modern life within half an hour.
