New wave of confidence across city
THERE’S a fresh wave of confidence building across Cairns, thanks to major infrastructure improvements that are reshaping how we live, move and invest.

In the Northern Beaches, the new link road between Trinity Beach and Trinity Park is already making a difference.
Combine that with the Captain Cook Highway upgrades and the growing leisure trail and lifestyle suburbs are becoming even more desirable for families, downsizers and investors.
Further south, Bentley Park, Mount Sheridan and Edmonton are also gaining traction.
With Bruce Highway improvements and more transport options coming, these suburbs are becoming hotspots for buyers looking for affordability and long-term growth.
Essential services are getting a boost too. The Northern Beaches water network upgrade, the Barron River bridge rebuild and major investment in the Cairns Hospital and marine precinct are increasing confidence and supporting future demand.
For local property owners, these developments are a strong signal: Cairns is on the rise.
Whether you’re in the north or south, the value of your home is backed by genuine infrastructure progress and lifestyle appeal.
Now is a great time to be confident in your position – your property is part of a region growing in both demand and reputation.
