4 Hill St, Cooktown, Qld 4895

Just a stone’s throw from the waterfront, this one-bedroom, one-bathroom fishing shack captures the essence of old Cooktown living. Set on a generous 1,250sqm residential-zoned block, this property offers both immediate lifestyle appeal and exciting long-term potential.

Positioned in a quiet, sheltered street, the home provides the perfect base for those who love the outdoors and the water. Just 400 metres from the boat ramp and a short walk to the wharf, this is an angler’s dream location. Add to that the convenience of being within easy walking distance to the Post Office, the popular Saturday markets, and an excellent selection of food and beverage venues, and you’ve got a property that ticks every lifestyle box.

The existing shack is simple yet functional and in need of some TLC, ideal as a weekend getaway, a fishing retreat, or an affordable entry point into the Cooktown property market. With established shade trees and a year-round sheltered aspect, the block itself is a standout feature, offering privacy, tranquillity, and space to create something more substantial should you wish to redevelop or extend.

This is a rare opportunity to secure a large, central block with residential zoning in one of Queensland’s most historic and desirable coastal towns. Whether you’re looking for a laid-back holiday base, a weekender with unbeatable access to fishing waters, or a prime site to build your dream home, 4 Hill Street is a property full of possibilities.

Embrace the relaxed Cooktown lifestyle where everything you need is just a short walk away – from fresh produce at the markets to launching the boat for a day on the water. Properties with this combination of location, size, and potential don’t come up often.
