An eleventh hour deal has secured the sale of Alkira, the futuristic property in far north Queensland.

It sold for an undisclosed price on Tuesday night ahead of its no reserve Wednesday auction.

The floating six-bedroom, six-bathroom unique property is located on 30 hectares of land in the Daintree Rainforest.

Its asking prices varied between $8 million and $14 million until the latest marketing campaign by Unique Estates agent Nicolette Van Wijngaarden.

“All I can say is it was a southern buyer who is very excited to use the property as a holiday home,” Ms Wijingaarden said.

It was sold by the stamp collector Rod Perry and his wife, Marider, who had tried to sell over the last three years. 

It was designed by renowned architect Charles Wright, the winner of a 2014 Queensland Architectural Award.
