It’s a particularly beautiful beachside apartment at Peregian Beach is attracting wide interest ahead of the auction on Saturday, 28 January, at 3pm.
The three-bedroom, two-bathroom, two-car penthouse apartment with pool at 7/31-33 Lorikeet Dve is house size and all on one level.
Tracy Russell at Tom Offermann Real Estate said the 585sq m apartment was house size including the garage.
All on one level, the penthouse apartment has lift access from the secure two-car accommodation.
“It dominates the whole complex,’’ Tracy said. “This is the first time in eight years it has become available.
“It’s proving to be so popular. The whole concept is proving desirable.
“There is interest already – they can see the future value.
“The top-level apartment will always offer the attributes of size, lift, pool, garaging, easy access to the beach and 360-degree views.
“Those intrinsic values will always be there.’’
Interest to date has been from local, interstate and Brisbane buyers.
Refreshed over the years, the apartment complex sits in an elevated position on the sand dunes, with beautiful views of Peregian Mountain, Mount Ninderry and Mount Coolum.
“There are sunset views to die for,’’ Tracy said, “and the ocean to the east.
“It is so comfortable …. all the maintenance has been done. The benefits are there of being in a penthouse.
“The wrap-around terraces have direct access from every bedroom.’’
Wake to the sound of waves breaking on the foreshore, and a short walk to the feeling sand between your toes.
WATERFRONT ATTRACTION
Privacy, presentation and position provided the recipe for auction success of a four-bedroom, three-bathroom waterfront house with pool at Noosaville on Saturday.
Marketed by Melanie Butcher and Olivier Miller of Laguna Real Estate, the single-level house at 41 Dolphin Cres attracted wide interest, with multiple registrations from local and interstate buyers.
A crowd of about 50 was in attendance to see the opening bid of $4m quickly move to $5m where it was announced to be on the market and selling to local interests.
The house offers complete privacy with only one neighbour, and is adjacent to Nancy Cato Park.
It was virtually rebuilt a couple of years ago, and features a stunning outlook, with views out across the waterways to Mount Cooroy.
CENTRE OF ATTENTION
It’s a short street right in the heart of Eumundi and it was filled on Saturday afternoon, not from the market crowds but with more than 100 people inspecting the house at 15 Low St.
The four-bedroom, two-bathroom architect-designed house with pool on 2849sq m goes to auction at 10am on Saturday, 18 February.
Nathan Howie of Noosa Estate Agents said the response to the first open house was unbelievable.
“Everyone was very impressed by the quality and the setting. Many said it was the best house they have ever seen.’’
Understandably, there is early registered interest in the property from locals and throughout South East Queensland.
We’ve had some stunning homes in the hinterland over the years and this an excellent example of building for the environment.
It has the feeling of living on acreage yet with the convenience of living in town.
In an elevated part of town and at the end of Low St, it has the perfect aspect.
“No expense has been spared,’’ Nathan said, “from the designer lighting to the kitchen.
“It doesn’t feel like a kitchen yet when you get into it you just want to do a cooking class.
“There is a cellar downstairs cellar, and the gardens are established yet not high maintenance.
“It will attract those looking for this feel but without having to look after acreage.’’
Designed for shared yet private living, the home consists of three pavilions connected by glassed hallways, which allow the surrounding nature to sneak into the home.
The lower floor houses a large garage, a stunning 600-plus bottle wine cellar, an additional storage area, and a huge office space that is large enough to be transformed into a fifth bedroom or third living area. It has a private external entry.
Upstairs features cathedral ceilings, picture windows, and seamless stack-a-doors.
Metre upon metre of custom cabinetry is in both the main kitchen and scullery.
Outside, a built-in gas barbecue, sink and a three-tap keg cooler system combine to form the outdoor kitchen.
The first of the three pavilions features a simple American oak staircase to a huge open living and dining room complete with a fireplace.
A hallway takes you to a powder room, a full bathroom, and three king-sized bedrooms.
At the furthest end of the home, the main bedroom suite consumes an entire pavilion. Overlooking the gardens, and 7m by 3m magnesium pool, it is complemented by a dressing room, fully-fitted walk-in robe, and spa-like ensuite.
The huge rainwater shower is only eclipsed by the luxurious free-standing bath sitting against a wall of glass that slides open and disappears.
INTEREST FROM FAR AND WIDE
Greg Smith at Select Noosa has two interesting properties going to auction this Saturday – one at Sunshine Beach and the other at Tewantin.
A two-bedroom, two-bathroom, two-car duplex apartment Villa 2/14 Weyba St, Sunshine Beach, goes to auction at 1pm.
Two blocks to the beach, the apartment has a lot of character and charm about it, Greg said.
“People love the feel of it. The floorplan works well.
“Situated on the north-east corner, it has north-east aspect and gets the early morning sun as well as being private.
“It is very quiet in that it is set back from street and in a peaceful precinct.
“This would be ideal for a holiday home or to lock-and-leave.’’
There is a whole mix of interest in the apartment, Greg said, from locals looking to downsize, Brisbane interest looking for a holiday home, ex-pats and interstate people looking to relocate.
OLD TEWANTIN APPEAL
Earlier on Saturday, Greg Smith will take a three-bedroom, two-bathroom, two-car house at Tewantin to auction.
He will be ringing the bell at 11am at 6 Cambridge Ct, which he describes as arguably one of the better streets in Old Tewantin.
“It’s very quiet, private, close to the river and not too far from the shopping centre.
“The single-level house has great bones and provides low maintenance living.
“The comments we’re getting back is it has a really nice feel.
“There are two living areas and private outdoor alfresco area.
“There are no easements on the block so it has room for a pool.
“It has a lot of great characteristics and would appeal to people looking to move from acreage.
“It would also prove great for investors as it would rent well with the market as it is.’’
Greg has been receiving good inquiry from interstate and locally.
“It will be in a good price range, with potential for improvement and has position.
“The first thing people ask is if it is in Old Tewantin.’’
