It’s a nice little beach shack, Tom Offermann Real Estate’s Chris Miller said – tongue firmly in cheek.

Words do not do justice to the seven-bedroom, seven-bathroom, two-pool house at 2/1-7 Bayview Rd, Noosa Heads.

“This is the perfect example of a property that needs to be seen.

“It’s exquisite. The attention to detail, the level of finish is remarkable.’’

Set for auction Friday, 22 November, at 12pm, the size and space of the home are so open, Chris said.

“The real brilliance is it has size yet every room has been designed to have personality and character.

“That’s a hard balance to strike but the energy in this property transforms you … you could be anywhere.

“Exceptionally private, it backs onto Noosa National Park and has lush gully off the boundary as well.’’

Main interest has been from Sydney and Melbourne primarily.

“It’s a very special property,’’ Chris said.

Designed and built by Deborah and Glen Watson, the same team as Coco Prive that sold three years ago at auction for $13.5m, Lumiere has a similar signature style but different character.

From the private driveway an eye-catching yet sense of mystique prevails momentarily at the water feature-adorned front entry on the main level.

The immense living and dining areas provide whispers of the Caribbean with a spectrum of blues and whites, French oak flooring and high coffered ceilings.

There is a fully-inclusive inventory with luxury custom and designer furniture, lighting, artworks and accessories plus total kitchen and bathroom fit-out.

Full-height doors are in complete line of sight from the living spaces, and open on the north-east side to a massive covered outdoor travertine-tiled dining terrace.

Taking centre stage are the designer’s signature upholstered double daybeds floating on the iridescent pool, while the nearby spa and sun terrace have the rainforest as a backdrop.

Recently completed and engineered with full concrete construction, there is the potential for separation with five ensuited bedrooms on the upper level and two ensuited bedrooms on the lower. So there is full holiday letting as well as space for the family.

The super-sized kitchen comes with Carrara marble-topped cabinetry and complementary island breakfast bar, high-end appliances and true butler’s style pantry with a wall of windows overlooking the herb and vegetable garden.

The house features an infra-red sauna for four, lift, ducted air-conditioning throughout, 12.9kW solar panels, 13.5kW Tesla battery and Tesla car charging port.

HIGHLY-SOUGHT ADDRESS

Enterprise St at Sunshine Beach has been one of the most tightly-held addresses in Noosa. It has the lot – elevation, views, privacy, Noosa National Park backdrop and walkway down to the beach.

Locals buy into it when they get the chance.

A four-bedroom, four-bathroom, two-car house, pool, at 30 Enterprise St goes to auction Saturday, 23 November, at 12pm.

Nic Hunter at Tom Offermann Real Estate said Enterprise St was always highly regarded.

“This is a beautiful house, and it’s the grandstand views that people are enjoying.

“There is good separation with the living areas sandwiched between the main bedroom suite on the upper level and a lift to the lower level where three bedrooms have built-in robes. One has ’those’ views; two have ensuites; and the bathroom is two-way.

“You have a protected northern terrace and a walkway down to Seaview Tce, so you can be on the beach in less than 10 minutes.’’

The 180-degree eagle-eye views sweep from Noosa National Park to the north, along the foreshore.

The residence has a deliberate discreet street profile, while inside the granite-adorned foyer expands along the ceilinged gallery-like hallway.

There are multiple leisure spaces, rich blackbutt flooring, white VJ ceilings, walls with timber slats, custom cabinetry, designer lights, and an abundance of plantation shutters.

Disappearing doors open to the undercover east and north-facing terraces which are sheltered from the winds.

The north-side terrace extends in a dramatic fashion, and length of the residence, to the pool with washed timber decking and an alfresco dining area with outdoor kitchen in between.

The L-shaped kitchen comes with sandy stone-topped cabinetry including island breakfast bar, all latest appliances, a walk-in pantry and the ocean outlook.

The king bedroom suite features plantation shutters, custom cabinetry including the bedhead, walk-in and built-in robes, and the brilliant sunrises and lulling waves.

The large ensuite has marble-topped cabinetry, heated towel rails and a walk-in shower, and there’s a gym/yoga room.

SUNRISE PERFECTION

 When it comes to finding the hot ticket to investment success mere minutes to sand, surf breaks, parks, cafes, and with ocean and hinterland views, a four-bedroom beauty with heaps of potential had it all … and more.

Three registered bidders were keen to get the keys to the door of 6 Woodlark Rise at Sunrise Beach, listed by Tom Offermann Real Estate agents Peter TeWhata and Erica Newton. However, at the fall of the hammer, the jubilant buyer was a local lifeguard and dedicated surfer who had his eyes on the top prize, for good reason. It was sold for $2m.

LITTLE COVE’S CHARM ON-POINT

Set between sparkling turquoise waters of the beach lover’s paradise on Laguna Bay, and the verdant wonderland of Noosa National Park, is Little Cove Beach and the very charming apartment 2 of Pandanus Cove in Mitti Street.

Listed by Tom Offermann Real Estate agents Clare Sherwood and Patrick Sherwood, it proved to be a huge magnet for more than 100 enquirers and canny investors, as well as a large crowd. Many were fresh from the beach but there were six registered bidders as well on auction day.

Bidding started slowly but quickly escalated with two bidders battling it out for the last $300,000, before it was declared sold at $2.51m

The Brisbane buyers are looking forward to sharing holidays with friends and fellow property owners, who also love Little Cove.
