The natural attractions and geographical features of Noosa help make for and amazing level of house design and builds.
Each week we profile a wide variety of properties, and this week is no exception. The quality is quite remarkable.
A four-bedroom duplex apartment with pool in Noosaville has seen exceptionally strong levels of enquiries, Tom Offermann agent Chris Miller reports.
The apartment at 2/7 William St is a Paul Clout design and the stand-out is the light-filled living spaces on the middle level as well as having a lift.
With three bathrooms and two-car garaging, the apartment is scheduled for auction Saturday, 18 October, at 3pm.
“There have been busy weekends at the open for inspections,’’ Chris said, “and calls from Sydney and Melbourne.
“People have been commenting on the size and space of the apartment – the fact there are only two so they didn’t have to compromise in the design.
“The lift is a great feature, as is the private garaging and the proximity to Noosa River.
“William is a quiet, one-way street. There have been very few properties in recent years of this calibre that close to river.
“Opportunities such as this are so rare. The building was finished in 2022 and presents as new.’’
Set over three lavish levels, a self-contained studio and the pool on the ground floor. Here, French oak, travertine and sandstone offset the designer furniture in the living areas.
Disappearing doors open from the kitchen to a terrace,
Take the lift or the easy timber stairs with glass balustrading and be immediately taken by expansive living spaces. An eco-gas fireplace is set into a marble wall, while multiple windows and disappearing doors attract lashings of natural light onto the French oak flooring.
The terrace, which is wide and stretches the width of the residence, takes the cake.
The kitchen is a cracker – galley-style and extra-long with organic white stone topped oak cabinetry including a dedicated bar area with shelving and Vintec wine fridge. There’s an island for prep and breakfast, with most appliances being the latest from Miele including gas cooktop and integrated dishwasher. The double fridge from Fisher & Payel is also integrated and there’s a walk-in pantry.
Three carpeted bedrooms are on the second floor – the premier suite having a sitting area and a blurring of the lines to outside with the west terrace.
The ensuite has a free-standing bathtub, polished brass tapware, stone two-basin topped cabinetry of oak with auto light-up mirrors and, of course, there’s a walk-in robe.
The additional two bedrooms have built-in robes and northerly aspect. One opens to the terrace, and the bathroom has stone single basin-topped oak cabinetry.
TRANQUIL RIVERFRONT HOME
A riverfront house on 1485sq m in Ward St at Tewantin is a hidden gem, according to Tom Offermann Real Estate’s Rebekah Offermann.
“Everyone that walks in is just drawn through the house, straight out to the balconies with 180-degrees views.
“A strong local contingent and also some interstate that know the secret of Ward St – which is why it is proving popular ahead of auction at 11am on Saturday, 18 October.
The three-bedroom, two-bathroom, four-car house commands a spectacular presence in a private cove, leeside of Sheep Island nature reserve and the world-famous Makepeace Island.
As such, it is a highly desirable Noosa River hideaway with extensive lawn area connecting to the water’s edge, and aptly called Riversong.
With the luxury of space, 180-degree broad water views, and a sunny easterly aspect, the site is one of only nine actual riverfront properties in this much-coveted street.
Push aside the double timber doors into the foyer, to the sizeable living spaces with 4m-high vaulted ceilings. There is exquisite polished parquetry flooring, with slide-away doors that blur the line between indoors and the outdoor terrace with curved balustrading.
Numerous space options for entertaining include a custom curved bar and mirrored wall with glass racks, granite topped cabinetry, bar fridge, and a 500-bottle, temperature-controlled cellar.
The kitchen features black granite topped oak cabinetry including a curved island and a wall bench. High-end appliances include an AEG oven and a four-hob gas cooktop, plus Fisher & Paykel double dish drawers – augmented by a walk-in pantry.

The property is fitted with monitored security system, Vacumaid system, 5.18kW solar and two water tanks.
EASTERN BEACHES PROVE POPULAR
Noosa’s eastern beaches continue to prove their popularity with 1/20 Orealla Cres, Sunrise Beach, a good example.
Featuring three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and mere minutes to the sand, the apartment was taken to auction by Tom Offermann Real Estate’s marketing agent Erica Newton.
It attracted four registered and competitive bidders – two each from interstate and locally – all vying for the keys to the door.
It was sold under the hammer for $1.607m to a Brisbane family who, understandably, cannot wait to spend Christmas in their beach pad.
FRONT ROW ON THE RIVER
The school holidays saw great weather, and a cracker of a year for whale watching.
Luke Chen at Tom Offermann Real Estate said everyone appeared in a good mood at Noosa’s beachfront locations.
Luke reports consistent numbers at open for inspections at a riverfront apartment he is taking to auction in Noosa Harbour Resort.
The two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment 35/6 Quamby Pl, Noosa Heads, goes to the market on Saturday, 18 October, at 12pm.
“There has been a lot of Melbourne people, as well as from Perth and New Zealand,’’ Luke said.
“Right on the river, the resort has just had a reception update so it is a seven-star welcome.
“This mid-level apartment gives slight elevation and gives 180-degree views across the Noosa River.
“It is only a few steps up from the podium level, pool and gardens. At the same time it is just a few steps to the beach and pontoon jetty.’’
