8/40-46 Redlynch Intake Road, Redlynch QLD 4870
2008 built unit | 2 bed 2 bath 1 car | 124m² lot | Redlynch school catchment | sold $570k Dec 2025
This unit is positioned as a comparatively spacious low-rise apartment within a suburban Redlynch pocket. Its 124m² lot is larger than many attached dwellings in the immediate cluster, and the 2008 build age gives it a more contemporary feel than older Cairns-city stock. The configuration is suited to owner-occupiers wanting a lock-and-leave home, small families after the local school catchment, and downsizers seeking single-level convenience. Rental demand appears active, with similar nearby units letting quickly, so investor interest is credible. The property’s strength lies in its balance of size, age, and location within an established residential corridor.
The absence of a stated floor level or aspect might limit buyer confidence for those seeking outlook or light, and FTTN connectivity may be seen as dated by tech-sensitive purchasers. The recorded price difference between the 2007 purchase and recent resale suggests long-term gain, but the 2025 sale price appears at a premium to some similar units, so resale timing could be sensitive. Nearby development activity in the corridor may add future amenity, though it also brings potential construction disruption. The property’s value is likely to be most influenced by its internal condition and presentation, neither of which is confirmed by available records.

Market Insight
Redlynch, a Cairns suburb, is drawing families and professionals chasing three-bedroom houses, while investors are attracted by solid yields and lifestyle appeal near major transport links. Median house price is around $824,000 with annual growth near 10%; units sit at $430,000 and grew 6.17%. Houses rent at $750 weekly, yielding 4.82%; units rent at $520, yielding 5.68%. Median days on market is 16–17, with roughly 200 house sales in the past year. Remote work, relative affordability and population growth underpin demand. Infrastructure spend, especially Bruce Highway upgrades and Cairns University Hospital expansion, will keep housing availability tight. The key risk is limited capital growth: with little driving values beyond current demand, prices are likely to stay flat or rise only marginally.
