Port Douglas 13 Ribbon Avenue

A Private Tropical Residence of Scale and Distinction

Set within a quiet Port Douglas cul-de-sac and walking distance to shops and school, this exceptional tropical residence delivers scale, craftsmanship and resort-style living on a level rarely seen.

High ceilings and New Guinea redwood timber floors flow throughout the home, creating a sense of scale and cohesion from the moment you enter through the double French doors. The impact is immediate, with the kitchen, lounge and dining unfolding before you, framed by an 14-metre wall of glass bi-folds that draw the eye directly through to the spectacular entertaining and pool areas.

The result is a residence designed to breathe - open, light-filled and seamlessly connected to its landscaped outdoor living. This space is further complimented with a striking 1,000-litre integrated aquarium that continues the home's sense of calm and connection to nature.

Three oversized bedrooms are complemented by a separate studio overlooking the pool, complete with its own toilet - ideal for guests, creative pursuits or extended family living. The main residence includes a sizeable private ensuite, as well a second generously sized bathroom with spa bath and shower.

At the heart of the home sits a fully fitted kitchen renovated in 2017, appointed with ASCO oven and steamer, integrated fridge/freezer, wine fridge and a discreet laundry room. Outdoor entertaining is equally considered, with an integrated lounge deck, pool deck, ambient deck lighting and one of Port Douglas' largest private pools - an impressive 15 metres in length with heater and cooler for year-round enjoyment.

The gardens are a destination in themselves. An extensive botanical collection features rare and valuable orchids, curated Indonesian, Vietnamese and Burmese pots, and a two-tier fishpond alive with gouramis, shubunkins, swordtails, mollies and angelfish.

Sustainability and infrastructure have been thoughtfully addressed, with a 26 kWh/day solar system supported by Victron/BYD battery storage and a Fronius inverter, alongside a double garage with Phase 3 electricity supply. Recent improvements include new pool decking, garage overhang, fans and air-conditioning throughout, ensuring the home is move-in ready while retaining its timeless appeal.

Set on a generous 1,202 sqm parcel, the property also offers exceptional practicality, with ample space to accommodate boats, trailers or additional vehicles. The expansive grounds provide flexibility rarely found this close to town, while maintaining privacy and a refined, landscaped setting.

An extensive collection of antique Asian furniture has been curated specifically for the home and may be available by negotiation, offering a rare opportunity to acquire a complete, cohesive lifestyle.

This is a home of presence, privacy and provenance - a tropical sanctuary designed for those who value space, artistry and enduring quality.
