3/78-80 Cunningham Street, Yorkeys Knob QLD 4878
3-bedroom 2-bathroom townhouse with 1 carport, 72m² lot area and 127m² of internal space. Single-level design includes a renovated stone-look kitchen, open-plan living, split-system air-conditioning, built-in robes, and a private courtyard with alfresco area. Located in Yorkeys Knob within school catchments for Yorkeys Knob State School and Smithfield State High School. This unit is an older build with modern updates, offering compact living in an established residential area transitioning to higher density.
This townhouse is positioned as one of the more accessible entry points in Yorkeys Knob, where detached homes dominate the higher end of the market. Its single-level layout with a private courtyard is uncommon in this price segment, and the renovated kitchen reduces immediate maintenance concerns. The three-bedroom configuration with two bathrooms serves first-home buyers well, particularly those valuing school catchment access, while the compact footprint keeps upkeep low for retirees or investors targeting modest rental demand from small families. The property sits comfortably within the neighborhood’s mix of older villas and newer complexes, offering a balance between established character and modern convenience.
The bushfire overlay over the area may require additional insurance considerations that could affect ongoing cost. The bathroom count being recorded as 1 in some listings might create hesitation during buyer evaluation, so clarity on configuration is advisable. The building’s age could mean future upgrades to plumbing or electrical systems, though no immediate issues are flagged. The 72m² lot limits outdoor expansion, which might be a factor for those wanting more garden space, but the private courtyard still provides usable outdoor living.

Market Insight
Yorkeys Knob benefits from its proximity to Cairns, with regional infrastructure investment underpinning its appeal. Demand is driven by interstate migration seeking relative affordability and investors attracted by strong rental yields. Recent price trends show steady growth, particularly in the unit market, supported by low inventory and high competition. Future growth is linked to broader Queensland momentum and sustained rental demand, though tight supply and rising prices present ongoing affordability constraints for entry-level buyers.
