It will be a big weekend for auctions in Noosa and leading them off is a stunning four-bedroom, three-bathroom home with pool in the gated enclave of Noosa Springs.

Julie Bengtsson at Tom Offermann Real Estate takes the spacious home at 734/61 Noosa Springs Dve, Noosa Heads, to the market Friday, 14 April, at 11am.

Feng shui sympathetic with water feature at the entry and spacious living area opening to the swimming pool and gardens, it would be good for the extended family, Julie said.

Overlooking the courtyard is a large study.

There is a bedroom with ensuite on the ground level, with three more bedrooms upstairs.

“The house has worked well. It has a lovely feel,’’ Julie said.

“The living areas open to the courtyard and pool. The lush gardens mean it is very private.

“There is even a space to park a boat around the side of the house.’’

A double custom timber and glass front door reveal chandelier-like glass pendants in the vestibule, granite flooring and picture windows along the lofty-ceilinged hallway.

The Mediterranean-inspired courtyard features a pergola covered in climbers, and in the foreground a classic pond with water plants and the centrepiece – a moss-covered urn adding tranquil Zen character.

The living and dining space is all about scale and functionality. Floor-to-ceiling fold-away glass doors opening to the multiple wide terraces and central courtyard.

The kitchen has stone-topped cabinetry, pantry, smoke-hued mirror splash-back, and the latest high-end appliances.

Upstairs and accessible by a lift, is the king-size main bedroom suite and retreat.

In the north-east wing., it has an undercover terrace and outdoor spa, a walk-in robe plus ensuite with walk-in shower, double vanity and bidet.

Two bedrooms on the same level have built-in robes with share/direct access to the family bathroom

which has a bathtub.

WATERFRONT TOWNHOUSE APPEALS

An absolute waterfront townhouse in a prime position at 25/67 Gibson Rd, Noosaville, has been listed by Julie Bengtsson at $1.995m.

Quiet, very private and freshly renovated with long water views, the home offers multiple living areas.

Entry on the northerly side is into a private tiled courtyard, then a U-shaped kitchen and living area opening to a timber deck with water views.

An expansive lawn stretches to the revetment wall and jetty.

Upstairs off the hallway are three sunny bedrooms with plush carpet and built-in robes. The king-size main suite with white-tiled ensuite look over the waterway.

A double and a twin bedroom share a bathroom, and there is a laundry nearby.

“The townhome is booked solid as it is in a good position in the Noosa Entrance complex,’’ Julie said.

“A lot of people from Brisbane come for the extended weekend.

“The homes are large enough to spend extended periods in here.’’

IDEAL FOR HORSES

It’s rare to find a 2ha property within walking distance of Cooroy, yet with that feeling of peace and privacy.

Set well back from the road is a spacious residence at 79 Pearsons Rd, Lake Macdonald, featuring five good-size bedrooms, high ceilings, two bathrooms and a swimming pool.

While the home caters for all the family with a dedicated lounge/media room, home office, and huge covered outdoor entertaining area, the property features a dam and shed.

Jeanette Catalano and Mario Catalano at Hinternoosa are taking the property to auction on Wednesday, 19 April, at 1pm.

“It’s a big house on flat land,’’ Jeanette said. “It would be ideal for horses or those simply looking for a usable acreage.’’

At the heart of the home is a fabulous kitchen with a superb outlook over the land and to the sparkling saltwater in-ground pool.

There’s gas/electric cooking, Caesarstone breakfast island bar, and a splendid walk-in pantry.

The living area features timber floors and includes a projector and screen plus surround sound.

With post-and-rail gated entry, the near-level acreage has great separation from neighbours. The property is cleared and usable with dog fencing on the boundary.

The shed is 15m by 9m with four bays, power and lights, plus a mezzanine level inside. It is excellent for parking all manner of vehicles plus room for a boat, caravan, horse float, or a motorhome. Other features include 5kW solar panels, solar hot water, large dam, and five rainwater tanks.

SEBEL APARTMENT OFFERS GOOD LAY-OUT

Shortages of listings in prime locations is driving the market in many aspects.

Roark Walsh at Tom Offermann Real Estate is taking a two-bedroom, two-bathroom, two-car apartment in Sebel, along Noosa’s Hastings St to auction at 3pm on Sunday, 16 April.

Apartment 227 is one of the better layouts, Roark said, with bedrooms at either end, a leafy balcony, and situated away from the main swimming pool.

Not only is it a quieter location, the key is it has two allocated car parks.

There are not many resorts where you get an allocated carpark so this is a good drawcard.

Interest to date has been from all over the east coast – Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane and regional areas as well as those who already hold property in Noosa.

Many are investors, looking to holiday-let or use the apartment for themselves.

Commanding a light-filled, north-east-facing aspect with views of the pools, water features and terracotta walkways, the fully-furnished holiday apartment is across the street from the beach.

It features open-plan living, dining and kitchen spaces, and has a seamless flow to the large undercover deck.

DUAL-LIVING ACREAGE OFFERED

It’s seen as the perfect dual-living acreage property in the heart of Doonan.

Caroline Johnston and Alisa Wythes at Hinternoosa are taking a five-bedroom, two-bathroom, two-car house, pool, on 6085sq m at 884 Eumundi-Noosa Rd, Doonan, to auction in rooms Sunday, 16 April, at 1pm.

The property features a solid, low maintenance family home and separate granny flat on usable land.

A wide entry to the solid brick home opens to a light-filled lounge room.

All of the rooms in this home are spacious.

The kitchen, office, dining and family room are all tiled for practicality, while the four bedrooms are carpeted.

There is air-conditioning in the main family room and ceiling fans throughout the home.

The family kitchen is complete with a dishwasher, gas cooking, ample storage and timber cabinetry.

Large glass sliding doors open to the wide, covered outdoor entertainment area overlooking the in-ground pool.

All bedrooms have built-in robes in addition to ceiling fans. The main bathroom is spacious with a separate bath and shower.

The home is fully security screened, and has a large laundry with excellent linen storage.

The cottage is perfectly positioned overlooking the pool and features air-conditioning, one bedroom and one bathroom, with a kitchenette.

The home is complemented by green lawns, partial fencing, gutter guard and a garden shed, with a two-car undercover carport, and two 6kw solar power systems.

The property has excellent long-term tenants. The auction is to be held at Hinternoosa’s Doonan office at 777 Eumundi-Noosa Rd.
