High tides, full moon, sand on the beaches – it’s been a real Noosa summer.
And the strength in the property market is certainly still there.
Dean McLure of Century 21 Noosa said the underlying outlook for 2022 was the activating of cash buyers as they have the power to make decisions.
They are not dependent on record low interest rates.
“They see growth,’’ Dean said. “They can make sharp, quick decisions.
“Buyers are still coming here.’’
With four registered bidders at 4 Hygieta St, Noosaville, last Saturday, the four-bedroom, two-bathroom house sold at auction for $2.15m.
The successful bidder was from Sydney, looking to relocate in the near future. It leaves Dean with three parties still looking.
He said the position was what attracted the price.
“It’s that good.
“To get a block of land in Noosa is virtually impossible.
“This one had good orientation, and was close to river precinct.
“Any house in that precinct comes in at that figure, just based on the land value.
“Buyers have confidence to invest due to the number of architect-designed homes going in.’’
AUCTION CAMPAIGN BRINGS FRESH LISTING
The auction of 52 Longwood Dve, Peregian Springs, later on the Saturday was shaping as a cracker.
Dean McLure had three registered bidders for the four-bedroom, four-bathroom house with pool and bidding to $2.5m.
The bidders were all local yet with different agendas – one wanting to relocate to a quieter community, a young family looking for a golf-course change while representing value for them, and a couple actively seeking a property there for quite some time and seeing value north of $2m.
Dean expects post-auction negotiations to see a contract this week.
The marketing and energy of the campaign saw a Noosa Heads house-owner deciding to sell his property by auction.
The beautiful, architect-designed house at 9 Jan St, Noosa Heads, comes with a rainforest outlook.
On a single-level with three bedrooms and office, two big living areas, high ceilings and pool, the house features 6kw solar and underground water storage.
It is set for auction Friday, February 25, at 6pm.
DREAM SITE
There is a wide range interest in the four-bedroom house at 1 Ferguson St, Sunshine Beach, ahead of Saturday’s auction at 3pm.
On a 543sq m corner site, the property is in demand due to its location, according to marketing agents Kathy Wise and Rob Spencer of Sunshine Beach Real Estate.
Interest in the property includes expats, as well as locals, Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne parties.
On the crest of Weyba and Ferguson, it takes in ocean as well as hinterland views.
“It’s an idyllic spot to build a dream home,’’ Rob said. “So close to everything good about Sunshine yet away from the noise.’’
An upper level of hardwood flooring with open-plan kitchen, living and dining, flows onto the large deck.
The spacious main bedroom on this level boasts walk-in robe, ensuite and direct access to the east-facing deck area.
The lower level offers three bedrooms and a second living area with kitchenette that opens onto fenced lawn and gardens.
Meanwhile the four-bedroom, three-bathroom house at 44 Ferguson St is receiving a wide range of interest.
Scheduled for auction with Kathy and Rob at 11am on Saturday, February 5, it is a well-built house designed by Noosa architect Tim Ditchfield.
At the quiet end of Ferguson, it is attracting interest from those wanting a low-maintenance, lock-up-and-leave property, Rob said.
“It’s so close to everything yet so quiet. And it backs onto a nature reserve.’’
The three-bedroom, three-bathroom house at 13 Hill St, Sunshine Beach, has had the auction date changed from this Sunday to the following Saturday, February 5, at 11.30am.
“There has been a lot of interest from people wanting a home with a difference,’’ Rob said.
“This has a real Sunshine Beach feel with something a little difference architecturally.“
Set back from Hill St with three-car garage and income-producing bungalow, it is 200-300m to the beach.
PEPPERS PENTHOUSE SET FOR AUCTION
Chris Miller at Tom Offermann Real Estate has continued his stellar run in Peppers Noosa with the sale under the hammer of the one-bedroom, one-bathroom apartment 7303/5 Morwong Dve for $790,000.
Now he has a two-bedroom, two-bathroom, two-car penthouse apartment with exclusive pool access going to auction Sunday, February 13, at 12pm.
The apartment at 7503/5 Morwong Dve, Noosa Heads, is in a really special position, Chris said.
On the top floor with an over-sized floorplan, it comes with ocean views.
“Interestingly, it is the only one in Peppers with exclusive access to Brooke’s Pool,’’ Chris said.
“It is positioned high on the ridge, access to this spectacular pool was negotiated as part of the original sale.’’
EVERYONE WANTS CASTAWAYS
This Saturday, January 29, Chris Miller is taking the three-bedroom, two-bathroom house with pool at 11 Topicana Rise, Castaways Beach, to auction at 5pm.
“The response has been phenomenal,’’ Chris said. “Everyone wants to live there.
“This has been as strong a response as anything else I’ve dealt with in the recent past. It has been very well received.
“People are loving the number of owner-occupiers there are in Castaways.
“Tropicana Rise has beach access at the end of the cul-de-sac.’’
There have been two points of difference that surprised Chris from the open houses.
One was the rooftop terrace with ocean and white water views, while on the other side there is a national park outlook. So you get sunrise and sunset from here.
The second point was the 20m lap pool that extends the whole length of the house but also offers a water feature.
“There has been a really good cross-section at the inspections but locals are understanding how unique Castaways is, how tightly held it has become.
“People have been flying up, and there have been a number of FaceTime inspections as well.
“They really know how good it is.’’
A new listing that Chris is very excited about is in Bayview Woods at Little Cove.
In a complex of five at 1-7 Bayview Rd, it is a four-bedroom, four-bathroom, two-car residence sitting right on the Noosa National Park.
It is set for auction on February 27.
