A Far North Queensland mansion being marketed as the Cairns districts' finest residence has been relisted for sale.

The Whitfield home at 21 Knott Court inland from the popular tourist spot sits in the foothills of the Whitfield Range.

Adjoining the Mount Whitfield Conservation Park, the six bedroom, seven bathroom home's 1,440 sqm of living space split into east and west wings sits under terracotta roofing.

It comes with gymnasium, wine cellar, timber panelled offices, lounges with views of the City, kitchen and self-contained guest apartment. 

There's a music room with hand painted dome ceiling in the home with columned facade inspired by the Italian Renaissance architect Andrea Palladio.

The 7,000 sqm Knott Court gardens feature a 17 metre pool with Versace style mosaic tiles, overlooked by a loggia, along with a seasonal creek.

Colliers International Cairns agents Tom Quaid and Jay Beattie have an October 4 auction.
