18 Makoo Close

Set high on the close, with lovely views from the front patio and a breeze that reminds you why locals love living in White Rock, this home is full of opportunity. This is the kind of property buyers should pay attention to. As someone who lives in White Rock, sells in White Rock, and genuinely loves this community, I know the difference between a tired home and a good opportunity. This one needs work, no question. But the position is strong, the layout is practical, the bones are there, and the upside is easy to see. The open-plan living area is spacious, air-conditioned, and positioned to capture the outlook from the front of the home. The best part? Those views will still be there long after the renovation is done. The kitchen is generous in size, with plenty of cupboard space and room to update it in your own style. Whether you keep it simple or give it a full refresh, there is real scope here to improve both liveability and value. There are three bedrooms, all with built-in wardrobes and air-conditioning, giving the home a practical layout for families, first-home buyers, renovators, or investors. The bathroom includes a bath, with a separate toilet for everyday convenience. At the rear of the home, you will find a laundry room, second patio, and garden shed. Out the front and side, the fenced yard gives you usable space, terraced garden beds, and a blank canvas ready for someone with vision to bring it back to life. This is not a polished display home. It is a real opportunity in a real neighbourhood. For a tradie, first-home buyer, renovator, or investor, this is the type of property where the work has already been factored in, and the upside is still sitting there waiting. You get the views. You get the breezes. You get the location. You get the chance to add value in one of the South Side's most practical and tightly held pockets.

I live here. I sell here. And I see every week why buyers are drawn to this part of Cairns. You have the mountain views, the afternoon breezes, the bigger blocks, the practical homes, and a local community that still feels down-to-earth. It is close to schools, shops, parks, sporting fields, public transport, Mount Sheridan Plaza, Woree amenities, and the Cairns CBD. It is convenient without losing that relaxed neighbourhood feel. For buyers wanting space, value, community, and long-term potential in Cairns' southern corridor, White Rock continues to stand out. That is why I am proud to be recognised as the #1 agent in White Rock. This is not just a suburb I work in. It is home.
