One of the defining factors about Noosa is the variety of aspects it provides, whether in the make-up of the land or those living in the community.
The natural appeal is driven by the expanses of water, the treed areas, the sandy beaches and rocky headlands.
Then there is the elevated areas of the coastal dunes and the hills in the Noosa National Park.
In the hinterland there are the mountains as remnants of volcanic activity some 20-30 million years ago.
Much of Noosa’s recent history has been along the river – from the early timber-getters at Tewantin in the mid-1800s up to today.
About halfway between Tewantin and Noosa Heads is a 1374sq m riverfront property with jetty that has long been favoured because of this location.
Adam Offermann and Rebekah Offermann of Tom Offermann Real Estate are taking the property at 88 Hilton Tce, Noosaville, to auction Saturday, 21 February, at 11am.
Widely regarded as Noosa’s finest, the private jetty extends 30m long and 2.7m wide with an 8.5m by 3.4m head, plus lower 6m by 1m landing dock.
Of solid concrete construction, it is sited within its own 621sq m exclusive marine reserve.
There is a long-term lease to the jetty and the marine area., Adam said, along with approved plans for a two-level residence with infinity pool designed by Blight Rayner Architects.
“Naturally, it is attracting attention. Enquiries are coming from different sources.
“Some are making direct contact while others are calling from interstate.
“There are a number of locals who are familiar with the site.’’
The property features absolute water frontage as one of only three coveted similar-sized sites on the Noosa River with high-water-mark boundaries and water views optimising the northerly aspect.
Luxury residences are planned for the remaining two water-frontages, making this the first and last chance to secure such a site with a wide tranquil reach of the river.
Here, there is 21.2m of sand-fringed water frontage and with medium density zoning.
The proposed design by acclaimed Blight Rayner Architects, juxtaposes the spirit of indoor-outdoor spaces for all seasons and reasons.
A central landscaped courtyard draws in natural light deep coalescing the interiors and riverfront.
Living areas open to the water, framed by deep thresholds tempering light, climate, and privacy while maintaining the river as a constant presence.
With a palette of concrete, brick, and glass, the architecture relies on proportion, material integrity, and structural clarity to evoke calm and longevity.
Strong horizontal planes anchor the home to its site, reinforcing its dialogue with the river.
The infinity-edge pool is embedded within the architecture, extending the inhabited ground level living areas and amplifying the experience of water.
STEEPED IN NOOSA HISTORY
Lights, camera, action … a property with long links to Noosa’s cultural identity and that pays tribute to the movie industry is set for auction this month.
The four-bedroom, two-bathroom, three-car house, with indoor pool, at 20 Berrima Row, Noosa Heads, features one of the most intriguing home cinemas on the Sunshine Coast – a true dedication to the magic of the silver screen.
David Conolly and Mike Hay of Century 21 Noosa are marketing the property that drums up memories of the magic of the movies and the glitz and glamour associated with Hollywood.
Ice creams, popcorn and packets of Jaffas. The screening of a cartoon or a Saturday action serial as a lead-up to the feature film.
The 506sq m property, above Noosa Junction chosen because of local knowledge of the location and the views, will go to auction Saturday, 21 February, at 1pm.
“It’s a house of wide interest,’’ David said. “Very sound and with low maintenance design.
“The top level features a pool and the views are spectacular.
“The family has owned some prominent properties in Noosa over many years.’’
Apart from the respect and admiration for the movie industry, the attraction of the property includes the position above the Junction.
As such it provides a private residence yet with the Junction vibe.
There is a dedicated floor with projection room, bar lounge and balcony.
First time offered in many years, early interest has been from Melbourne as well as international and local, David said.
“There has been a whole host of people … including those who appreciate the authentic style.’’
The property affords 180-degree sunset views of the Noosa River and hinterland from two levels.
The main living area is open-plan design with a sea of glass to take full advantage of the outlook, while stacking doors open up to the all-weather pool.
A white kitchen is well-equipped with premium appliances, ample cabinetry, and a wine fridge.
The main bedroom features a walk-in robe and private ensuite. A study/second bedroom, media room, laundry, and powder room complete the second level.
A further two bedrooms, substantial living area, bathroom, garage and internal and external store rooms are downstairs.
With a lift accessing all three floors, you can effortlessly reach the top level where you will find something extra-special. Offering one of the only true in-home cinema-grade media rooms in Noosa, this entire floor is designed for relaxation and entertainment including a bar lounge, powder room, and large balcony showcasing sweeping elevated views over Noosa.
There is a single garage plus carport, with three-phase power already connected that gives potential for electric car charging.
