Master-Built Waterfront Excellence | 78 Bay Road, Coconuts

Welcome to a rare piece of North Queensland waterfront living where quality, position and craftsmanship come together in an exceptional family home.

78 Bay Road is not simply a well-built home — it was the personal residence of a respected master builder, constructed to standards rarely seen in today’s market. Every element of this substantial two-storey brick home reflects thoughtful design, superior materials and a level of finish that only comes when a builder creates a home for their own family.

Set on a generous 1,012m² allotment with only council esplanade separating you from the waterfront, this address is widely regarded as one of the Cassowary Coast’s most tightly held and desirable coastal pockets, just 10 minutes from the heart of Innisfail.
From the moment you step inside, the difference is evident. High ceilings, solid construction, and timeless features combine to create a home that feels both impressive and welcoming.
A sweeping curved staircase, stained glass feature window and dedicated display alcove add character and warmth, while practical details such as outdoor power points, a balcony tap, and extensive storage show the foresight of an experienced tradesman who understood what truly makes a home functional.

Unlike many homes of its era, the expansive concrete-tiled balcony is a seamless extension of the structure — not a later addition — offering uninterrupted water views and a perfect space to relax or entertain.
The home is fully air-conditioned for year-round comfort offset by a 10kw solar system. Offering multiple living zones, most with exceptional water views, this home is ideal for large families, multi-generational living, or those couples that require frequent guest accommodation.

Homes in this stretch of Bay Road are seldom offered to the market and are typically held by long-term residents and prominent local business owners — a testament to the lifestyle and prestige of this location.
This is a home built to last, in a position that cannot be replicated.

Private inspections are encouraged to truly appreciate the quality on offer.
