A must-see for admirers of beautiful homes and those keen on a game of golf, is 701 The Palms at Noosa Springs.
Indulge in the epitome of a truly breathtaking residence, on par with excellence designed by Paul Clout, and boldly staking its claim seemingly on an island – albeit a dizzying unparalleled 2252sq m site with a northerly aspect and views of water from every room.
It is totally surrounded by tranquility and is beside the lake and fourth green of world-class Noosa Springs Golf and Spa Resort.
Just up the fairway you have a choice of another sensational property at 517 The Woods, a Stephen Kidd designed masterpiece on a huge 1239sq m allotment.
Marketed by Tom Offermann and Patrick Sherwood, 701/61 Noosa Springs Dve offers four bedrooms, three bathrooms, and a two-car golf-front house with pool, on 2252sq m.
Grand doors open into a foyer, a gallery wall of fold-away paned glass, a bridge over a sandstone-edged meandering pool, and gardens reminiscent of the Mediterranean.
The expansive living spaces come with clerestory atriums, endless travertine, oak floors and kitchen with stone-topped cabinetry including curvaceous island breakfast bar.
There are three bedrooms in the main residence including the king m-size retreat which has an alfresco terrace outlook, dresser, fashionista-style walk-in robe and travertine ensuite with Mediterranean-inspired mosaic-tiled sunken bath and pool outlook.
Two bedrooms have custom cabinetry and each has a terrace or pool outlook.
The bathroom has a sunken bath and there is a separate powder room.
The two bedrooms in the guest villa have built-in robes and a bathroom with a bathtub.
Designer Paul Clout considers the residence, inspired by his travels in the Mediterranean, as one of his all-time favourites.
HAWAIIAN-INSPIRED HIDEAWAY
Aptly named Halewai, the Hawaiian word for home on the water, the four-bedroom, three-bathroom, three-car waterfront house at 105 Noosa Pde, Noosaville, has been attracting plenty of attention.
Set for auction Saturday, 17 June, at 11am with Nic Hunter and Tiffany Wilson of Tom Offermann Real Estate, it comes with jetty, boat slip, and coveted north-easterly aspect.
“It’s a beautiful house,’’ Nic said, “… Stephen Kidd-designed.
“The position is great. It has easterly aspect and is central to either Hastings St or Gympie Tce – you can walk to Ricky’s on Noosa Sound.
“It has short-term holiday approval, which is a valuable asset in itself.’’
The two-level home is on 610sq m with 21m of water frontage.
There are three bedrooms upstairs, including a gorgeous main suite looking over the water, Nic said.
Downstairs you have a guest suite or main bedroom alternative.
“There has been a good response from those seeking waterfront living,’’ Nic said.
“A big drawcard for boaties is the slipway down the side of the house, going straight up to the triple garage with drive-through capability.’’
The house features lofty ceilings, plantation shutters and beautiful lime-washed timber floors, which fan to individually-styled, open-plan living, dining and casual lounging spaces.
Banks of glass sliders reveal private terraces and a sun deck to the waterfront.
The timeless designer kitchen comes with granite-topped, VJ-profile cabinetry including island and breakfast bench looking out to the water, while downstairs is the climate-controlled wine cellar.
Central to upstairs is a high-ceilinged leisure space with a bar – more a chill-out zone for movies and relaxation.
It is adjacent to the king-size main suite with Noosa River water views, walk-in robe, an ensuite with mosaic tiles, vanity console, rectangular free-standing bath, and separate toilet.
Plantation shutters open to an undercover terrace.
The other two bedrooms come with plantation shutters, built-in robes and a two-way ensuite.
Downstairs, the guest bedroom opens onto the terrace and a family bathroom is nearby.
