There is a positive vibe about Peregian Beach as buyers understand the appeal of the beachfront community and the potential for growth.

Tracy Russell of Tom Offermann Real Estate is seeing strong interest in a three-bedroom, two-bathroom, two-car designer duplex apartment at 1/9 Avocet Pde she is taking to auction at 11am on Saturday, 25 March.

The initial response has been good at open homes with three or four second inspections already lined up.

Interest has been mainly Brisbane, interstate and local for the Stephen Kidd-designed home that is on the high-point of Avocet, behind beach access 52.

“There is a sensational view,” Tracy said. “It’s a great home that would suit those looking for a downsizing option.

“It has self-managed body corporate and the potential for income as there is short-term letting approval.

“Avocet is a lovely street and this duplex is surrounded by some gorgeous homes.

“It is a private position and people just love the street.”

The beauty of Pandanus Rise is it is set back from the street and you drive straight into the double garage.

Inside, there is a contemporary light-filled interior with the blue Pacific Ocean and leafy outlooks.

Disappearing bi-folds are a feature of the spacious living areas of both floors which enjoy a northerly aspect.

This is a place designed for beachside living and there is even a pool in a garden oasis dotted with palms, agaves and dracaenas.

A black granite-topped bar is in the living area.

Two ground-floor bedrooms open out to the east-facing terrace and flat lawn with hot/cold outdoor shower, bench seating and cubby house.

There is a bathroom, and laundry with large linen cabinets.

Upstairs, there is a terrace with ocean views stretching north, east and south to Mt Coolum and Mooloolaba’s lighthouse.

A glamorous kitchen features bright white, black granite-topped cabinetry and all the latest appliances.

Stunning water views are enjoyed from the king-sized main bedroom suite that sits perfectly off this terrace and main living.

Walk-in mirrored robes lead to a private ensuite featuring black granite tops with double basins. Added to this is an open roof section of the terrace.

ABOVE RESERVE IN NOOSAVILLE

A well-designed marketing campaign by Tom Offermann Real Estate combining print and digital media proved an attention-seeking magnet for the Eric Seetoo-listed 1/12 Howard Street, Noosaville.

The modernist duplex designed by Chris Clout, which is mere footsteps to the shallows and boardwalk of the Noosa River, attracted a crowd of 40 and six bidders including several from the company’s database.

It was an exciting event and after more than half an hour of bidding it was sold for $2.915m.

“A great result, well over the reserve,” commented Tom Offermann, “and the seller who had flown up in Sydney was delighted knowing he had achieved the absolute best price for the property”.
