186 Mandalay Road, Mandalay, is on the market for $3m.
A UNIQUE fortress-like high security Queensland estate more akin to protecting the privacy of world leaders has hit the market priced at $3 million.
Built on a reinforced concrete slab with concrete walls both inside and out, the property looks out over the stunning Whitsundays, including the Port of Airlie Marina and a beach loved by tourists.
Stunning views out to the marina.
“It is in short, built like a fortress,” according to a listing by agent Michael Kavanagh of Professionals Whitsundays.
It also has a service corridor leading to storage, cold rooms and laundry as well as a subfloor level below the third bathroom — currently used for storage.
The Whitsundays at your feet.
“There are three x 44.5 kilolitre concrete rainwater tanks, a pump house with a Grundfos electric pump. The grounds are sprawling lawns and established shrubs with native forest. Chesapeake Estate is a gated estate giving owners privacy and security.”
Glorious views from inside the living zone.
The home at 186 Mandalay Road, Mandalay — which has three bedrooms, three bathrooms and a two-car garage — was described as “one of the most unique homes in the Whitsundays” on an allotment spanning 8.61 acres.
One of the bathrooms has a special room under it — currently used for storage.
“Originally established as the family home of the MacDonald family who created the estate including the building of a private road.”
The house itself was 618 sqm with an enormous patio area of 230 sqm.
