It’s a great address and the views are spectacular.
A four-bedroom, two-bathroom house on 526sq m at 5 Mainsails Sq, Noosa Heads, has been attracting interest to open homes because of this inspiration.
Marketed by Nic Hunter and Adam Offermann of Tom Offermann Real Estate, the property goes to auction Saturday, 1 June, at 1pm.
“Some people enjoy the river outlook,’’ Adam said, “while others prefer the proximity to the national park.
“Yet they all enjoy the setting.
“It’s a great street and pocket in terms of a neighbourhood.
“It really is Noosa … you have the trees, the Junction below, and the national park.’’
Indeed, this is the quintessential Noosa location. You are between the two beaches – Laguna Bay and Sunshine – and among the trees.
The ocean and beaches stretching south along the coast; in the front is Lake Weyba, its waterways, way beyond to the Blackall Range, Mt Tinbeerwah and the lush Noosa hinterland; and sweeping right in the northerly direction, is the Noosa River.
At the same time the garden backs onto the Noosa National Park.
The spacious living area on the first floor has high ceilings, big windows and louvres, plus banks of sliding doors that provide a seamless flow to the terrace.
There’s a dedicated dining space on the north side which opens out to an undercover terrace with a northerly aspect.
Downstairs, is a large tiled leisure space with access to an undercover terrace and garden.
The kitchen with grey tiles is C-shaped, has marble-look benchtops including semi-island breakfast bar, a corner walk-in pantry and a full range of appliances.
There are four carpeted bedrooms. The premier suite with wispy sheers is on the top floor, opens to the terrace with those captivating views, has a walk-in robe, also an ensuite and separate toilet.
Three bedrooms with share bathroom and separate powder room are on the ground floor.
Two have access to the northerly terrace.
PRIZED WATERFRONT POSITION
You can tell a lot about the appeal of a property by the length of time it’s been held in the same family.
Such is the case of the two-bedroom, two-bathroom waterfront apartment on Noosa Sound that father-and-daughter team of Luke Chen and Lauren Chen are taking to auction.
The ground-floor apartment in Noosa Harbour Resort has been held by the vendors since 1985, shortly after the landmark resort on Noosa River was built.
The Tom Offermann Real Estate agents are taking the property 4/6 Quamby Pl, Noosa Heads, to the market at 12pm on Saturday, 8 June.
“The beach is right in front,’’ Luke said. “This position attracts a wide demographic.
“You just tumble out on to the lawn and the beach.
“There are wide views across the river and of the hinterland. From the north-facing terrace, you look across to the North Shore – and there are no buildings on the riverscape.
“The owners have spent many holidays here while raising their family. They even built a clinker boat for use on the river.’’
The apartment has been renovated over time and dated really well, Luke said.

LUXURY HINTERLAND HIDEAWAY
A five-bedroom house with pool on 5417sq m in the Noosa hinterland has been completely transformed with a stylish renovation.
Kess Prior at Hinternoosa is taking the property at 7 Blueberry Lane, Eumundi, to auction at 12pm on Thursday, 13 June.
With three bathrooms and two-car garaging, the single-level house features good-sized bedrooms, light-filled living spaces, and picturesque views from every window and door.
The bespoke kitchen is at the heart and connects seamlessly with the outdoors when a wall of glass bifold doors fold right back.
Showcasing palazzo quantum quartz countertops and matching full-length splashback, this sleek white kitchen offers plenty of cupboard storage, integrated double wall ovens and induction cooktop. There’s even a fully-equipped cocktail cupboard.
Both living spaces offer choices for activities with the main lounge looking out to the resort-style pool and the tropical surrounds.

Past the walk-in robe, the stylish ensuite features an extra-large double shower, deep bathtub and twin basins on a long vanity with storage.
Near the front of the home is another ensuited bedroom or work-from-home space.
There’s high ceilings, parquetry-style, timber-look floors, ducted air-conditioning, solar power and tiled outdoor entertaining area, complete with a built-in barbecue.
There’s a boardwalk alongside the thriving fruit trees and established landscaping, with a seasonal creek along the bottom boundary.
