The Cairns property market has demonstrated impressive momentum with another weekend of successful auctions and sales across the Northern Queensland region. Buyer appetite remains strong, particularly in the city's sought-after northern suburbs where competition is driving solid results.
Northern Suburbs Lead the Charge
Manoora set the pace with 27 May Street fetching $441,000 under the hammer, showcasing the continued demand for well-positioned homes in established neighborhoods. The successful sale highlights how buyers are recognizing value in Cairns' inner suburbs.
Further north in Freshwater, 25 O'Brien Road achieved a notable result at $760,000, demonstrating the premium buyers are willing to pay for properties in these desirable locations. The strong sale price indicates confidence in the northern corridor's long-term value.
Multiple Methods, Strong Outcomes
While auctions generated plenty of activity, private treaty sales also produced significant results across the region. In Bentley Park, 25 Renata Street changed hands for $540,000, while Brinsmead saw 154 Pease Street secure $625,000.
The diversity of successful sales methods suggests the market is accommodating various approaches, with well-priced properties attracting attention regardless of how they're marketed.
