There’s no doubting the popularity of the eastern beaches with Marcus Beach making a big splash, similarly Sunrise Beach.
Surrounded by the immense natural assets of Noosa National Park, and five kilometres of dazzling white sand between Sunrise and Peregian, is Marcus Beach, regarded as an exclusive hidden utopia by the locals.
Not surprisingly 51 Tristania Dve, Marcus Beach, a six-bedroom, six-bathroom residence with unrestricted 180 degree-plus Coral Sea views, and seconds to toes-in-the dazzling white sand, fielded enormous inquiry from interstate and overseas.
Listed by Tom Offermann Real Estate agent Nic Hunter, it sold post-auction for $7.5m, a record for Marcus Beach.
At 67 Orient Dve, Sunrise Beach, Tom Offermann Real Estate agent Peter TeWhata’s listing of a four-bedroom, three-bathroom brilliant white beach house attracted much interest – especially from interstaters.
Three-minutes to the sand and with a north-facing pool, little wonder it was sold at auction for $3.85m.
A SECRET NO MORE
The secret was out even before 8 Yallara Ct, Noosa Heads, listed by Tom Offermann Real Estate agent Clare Sherwood had officially hit the market.
Totally understandable as the contemporary, all-new, sun-saturated treasure is located in a secluded small leafy cul-de-sac of a much sought-after estate.
It is surrounded by parks and reserves, has bike-way links to the town’s cosmopolitan heart, is close to schools and even a golf course.
There were more than 100 inspections during the campaign, all concurring life couldn’t get much than living here.
On a bright sunny day in front of an interested crowd of 50 and with three determined bidders, it was sold under the hammer for $2.45m to thrilled buyers.
SPECIFICALLY BUILT FOR SITE
Getting really good interest and going to auction on Saturday, 15 July, is a four-bedroom, two-bathroom, two-car house with pool at 1 Sanctuary Ave, Noosa Heads.
Listed with Peter TeWhata of Tom Offermann Real Estate, the Green Earth Home was built specifically for the site.
“The builders have taken great attention to aspect,’’ Peter said, “with passive heating and cooling elements built in.
“It’s such a beautiful property.
“There is a northerly aspect and you get really good sunrises and sunsets from the elevated corner position.
“The north-facing alfresco has been remodelled and a new pool installed.
“Everything is so high-spec. With travertine, high ceilings and doors, it is not your run-of-the-mill home but something really special.’’
Peter reports strong inquiry from interstate and overseas for the property, that goes to auction on the Saturday at 11am.
Shrouded by lush landscaping, is an understated urban sanctuary within the natural environment.
Linea weatherboard has been used as a major consideration for robust longevity of the residence, and at the front entrance rough-cut travertine tiles make an impressive wall feature.
Inside, there is travertine in a French pattern, doors with VJ detail throughout, and beyond the hallway, thanks to almost clerestory height ceilings, bright natural light bounces over the pastel grey tiles in the living and dining spaces.
In-between with the perfect northerly aspect, doors seemingly disappear and reveal an expansive covered terrace.
Here, there is a billiard/ table tennis table ex Beerwah Hotel, 5m custom cast concrete high table plus custom cast concrete dining table and benches as well as barbecue.
There is a dedicated media/smart lounge with plush charcoal carpet; four carpeted bedrooms – the king-size main bedroom with walk-in robe and ensuite featuring a custom dressing table and white vanity console plus free-standing bath with designer chandelier.
Three queen-size bedrooms with built-in robes are in the southern wing, along with main bathroom, powder room and laundry.
The galley-style kitchen features white stone-topped, timber-look cabinetry including a 3.5m island bench/breakfast bar with white brick-style splashback.
Fitted is an Ariston dishwasher, 900mm oven with five-hob gas cooktop, while there is a walk-in pantry and abundant storage/shelving.
Adjacent is the study/ office nook.
There is air-conditioning and fans.
