17 Maria Close, Mareeba QLD 4880

Quiet no-through-road | 1,003m² block | no rear neighbour | tenanted income | family positioning This property presents a rare combination of a large, private block on a quiet street with a steady rental income already secured until late 2026. The open-plan layout, modern kitchen, and full-length patio are practical for a family or investor seeking low-maintenance living with good entertaining space. The absence of a rear neighbour and side access add genuine privacy and flexibility for children or pets, which is uncommon in this price bracket. It suits buyers who value immediate yield and a strong location over cosmetic upgrades. The main risk is the fixed tenancy, which delays owner-occupation for over two years and may limit negotiation leverage. However, for an investor, this provides predictable cash flow and removes vacancy risk. The rendered concrete block construction is durable but may feel dated to some buyers; the new vinyl flooring and tiled living areas are a plus. The price sits well above the local median, but the block size, privacy, and income stream justify the premium for the right buyer.
