Allister Millican, Justin Smith and the team at Ray White Maleny are proud to present Waterfall Retreat, an extraordinary hinterland estate where architectural mastery meets the poetry of water, the tranquillity of wilderness and the quiet productivity of fertile grazing land.

Set across 23.39 hectares of pristine, rainforest fringed countryside just two kilometres from the vibrant heart of Maleny, this is far more than a home. It is a living composition. Spring fed creeks meander through lush gullies, spilling into two private waterfalls, each with its own distinct rhythm. At the heart of it all lies a breathtaking thirty metre cascade, over which the main residence is dramatically poised. This rare feat of design allows the sound, movement and cool air of the falls to become a constant sensory backdrop to daily life.

The principal residence draws inspiration from the timeless principles of modern organic architecture, in the spirit of Fallingwater. Strong horizontal lines, wide overhangs and cantilevered decks appear to float above the landscape, while expansive panes of glass frame the natural theatre outside. Every vantage point captures a unique aspect of the setting, from the gentleness of flowing water to the stillness of rainforest canopy, weaving the sounds and sights of nature and rural life into the fabric of the home. Inside, warm timbers, honed stone and tactile finishes create a seamless dialogue between indoors and out, shifting in character with the light and seasons.

A separate fully self contained studio is positioned for privacy and flexibility, equally suited for guests, extended family, a home office or an artist's retreat. Together, the two dwellings offer five bedrooms and five bathrooms, each oriented to protect privacy and frame exceptional views.

Beyond its architectural and natural drama, Waterfall Retreat delivers a level of rural productivity rarely found in properties of such refinement. Select paddocks, well sheltered by established treelines and sustained by permanent water, are ideal for grazing livestock or equestrian pursuits. These working elements blend effortlessly with the estate's lifestyle assets, creating a property that is both beautiful and functional.

The grounds are an ever changing study in texture and form. Expansive lawns sweep towards rainforest edges. Elevated plateaus reveal distant ridgelines. Sheltered garden pockets invite quiet reflection, while a private network of trails leads to hidden gems including natural swimming holes, shaded rock pools and waterfalls revealed in shifting light. Whether walking at dawn among the misted paddocks or pausing at the main deck above the great falls, every turn offers a moment to savour.

Despite its deep sense of seclusion, Waterfall Retreat is wonderfully connected.
• Just two kilometres to Maleny village
• Thirty six kilometres to the Sunshine Coast's golden beaches
• Ninety three kilometres to Brisbane

Here, privacy, accessibility and productivity meet in rare and perfect balance.

More than an address, Waterfall Retreat is a place to restore perspective, a home that celebrates both the everyday and the extraordinary. It is an estate that engages the senses, honours its landscape and offers the freedom to shape life entirely on your own terms.
