A chance to grab waterfront allotments in Whitsundays

Ten waterfront allotments, fronting the north-facing beach at Funnel Bay and surrounded by national parks on three sides in North Queensland’s Whitsundays, are up for sale.

The development, called “The Beaches”, recently launched with individual allotments bearing the names of famous beaches like Bondi, Cottesloe, and Waikiki rather than lot numbers.

Prices start from $825,000, with the average being under $900,000.

The marketing is being handled by PRDnationwide.

The site was previously owned by a Resort Corp and approved for 174 apartments as a 6-star lush tropical resort.

A group of local investors and developers have since secured the site and modified the approval to produce 10 waterfront allotments of 1000 sqm and five garden view allotments (each with direct access either to the beach or to the private pool area).

The beachfront lots have an additional 700 sqm or more of landscaping area on each title.

Each allotment is fully serviced but has the feel of a deserted tropical island, with sweeping views across Funnel bay and out to the Great Barrier Reef.

Despite being only six minutes from the main street of Airlie Beach, The Beaches are hidden behind a low ridge giving residents the feeling of being a million miles from anywhere.
