Ethically sourced gemstone tapware, hospital patient-care bedrooms, wall-to-floor marble bathrooms, category eight cyclone-proof construction, hardware level smart home data security, and a bespoke AI system, these are just some of the unique features of a new property designed and built by a Cairns-based engineer.

With the average home in Queensland selling for about 1% above list price and go pending in around 33 days1, the real estate market continues to heat up in Queensland.

42 Malabar Street is set to make a splash not just for its luxurious features but also for its cutting-edge technology and is set to hit the market early 2025, showcasing what could arguably be Australia’s techiest house.

Founder of Janco Enterprise Julius Arnold-Janco champions a unique approach to construction, which has been instrumental in the development of this technologically advanced home.

Janco Enterprise is setting the new norm for living by offering sustainably produced, affordable luxury goods that elevate daily living.

This commitment underscores a fundamental principle: quality and beauty are not privileges, but universal rights.

This house’s AI system is a unique design by Janco Enterprise and offers unparalleled privacy, keeping all user data secure.

It efficiently manages the house’s ambient temperature using sophisticated heat physics calculations derived from concealed sensors, predicted energy usage to optimise efficiency, and can operate seamlessly without an internet connection, providing a truly personalised experience without compromising data security.

The embrace of smart homes is steadily rising around the world, driven by the growing desire for convenience, energy efficiency, and enhanced security.

In Australia, factors such as an aging population, a preference for sustainable living, and government incentives for energy-efficient solutions are fuelling the widespread adoption of smart home technology.

Around a third of Australia’s real estate professionals believe AI will have a revolutionary impact on the housing industry, but the same number have not taken any steps to implement AI.3 Recent data reveals over a quarter of Australians (29%) own a smart home speaker, with nearly half (46%) using them on a daily basis.

Older Australians in particular are embracing smart home technology with nearly one in two (48%) Aussies aged 55 to 65+ years now owning one or more smart home devices.

Five tonnes of internationally and sustainably sourced marble and two tonnes of granite is crafted into the outside areas, laundry, and bathrooms of 42 Malabar Street, giving a sense of luxury at every step.

By transforming everyday environments with a fusion of affordable luxury and eco-conscious materials, the home has a seamless elegance appeal that is adapted to the latest design trends.

Adding a level of sophistication to the house, one times 14 carat ruby and one times 14 carat sapphire have been integrated into each of the five taps throughout the bathrooms.

Silver-look tapware is plated with platinum to enhance durability in wet areas.

Janco Enterprise honours its commitment to the planet by creating the sought after luxury look but in a sustainable and affordable way for the everyday consumer.

Offering dignity and comfort for an elderly loved one or sick child in their own home is inherent to Janco Enterprise’s project.

This home has converted the rear bedroom into a private medical room by placing oxygen, medical air, and suction systems into a medical bed panel, as well as all the necessary power points and standard requirements, much like in a hospital.

This allows patients to be cared for in their own home surrounded by loved ones. As the world embraces the possibilities of AI and sustainable living, 42 Malabar Street stands as a testament to what can be achieved when innovation meets luxury, offering a glimpse into the future of housing in Australia.
