“The house has a heart of class … and enjoys a much-coveted location in a quiet cul-de-sac.’’
Forty metres from the river foreshore, the two-level house mixes contemporary with understated yet timeless retro.
The White House features an American-style white clapboard exterior with double glass-paned front doors opening from the wide verandah into the foyer.

There are four-oversized bedrooms. In the north wing on the ground level is the main suite with walk-in and build-in robes. The ensuite has nickel tapware, marble mosaic tiles, marble topped two-basin classic white cabinetry, large shower plus freestanding bathtub.

TASTE OF COUNTRY ON EDGE OF TOWN
Position, presentation and potential – a three-bedroom, two-bathroom house with pool on 4047sq m at Cooroy has everything anyone could want.
everything you want.
Jeanette Catalano and Ruth Venning of Hinternoosa are taking the property at 14 Pear Tree Lane to auction on Wednesday, 21 May, at 10am.
“It’s in a classic part of town,’’ Jeanette said, “ … with a country lane entry.
“The property has been owned by the same people since the late ’90s.
“They have been very proud of the property – it’s private and cute.
“It is a very happy sale and has been a pleasure to handle this property.’’
While at the edge of town the property has the potential of subdivision or an extra dwelling, Jeanette said.
“There has been strong interest right away. There are people flying up from interstate, as well as local interest.’’
The house has a feeling of yesteryear with traditional features such as timber floors, high ceilings, picture rails, casement windows, and a shady front porch.
There are ceiling fans throughout, plus air-conditioning in the open-plan living area.
The country-style kitchen features a dishwasher, free-standing oven with gas cooktop, dual sinks, and a tranquil outlook into the trees.
French doors connect the internal living space to a fully-screened and covered deck – a place to enjoy the peace, seclusion and sounds of nature.
The main bedroom comes with its own ensuite and has direct access onto the deck, while the other two bedrooms are well positioned – one with decorative doors and could double as a study or library.
There’s a family bathroom, laundry, and carport space under roof. Additional features include an in-ground pool, separate single-bay shed with carport, lush lawns and easy-care landscaping.
Natural bush surround the entire property, which is positioned at the end of a gravel road. Yet it is within walking distance of the heart of Cooroy.
LUXURY CLOSE TO THE RIVER
Expect competitive bidding when a three-bedroom, two-bathroom duplex residence in Noosaville goes to auction on Thursday, 22 May.
Tenahya Thompson and Joel Hood of Joel Hood Property have former Ray White head auctioneer Phil Parker calling the event, to be held at 5pm.
The immaculate Hamptons-style residence is about 250m to the Noosa River, in a highly-sought part of Noosaville.
With pool and two-car accommodation, this luxury home creates a statement in coastal elegance, Tenahya said.
“It is stunning, with a floorpan that works really well.
“There has been a good mix of interest – mainly locals through the door at open homes, otherwise from interstate.
“They have been knocked out by the presentation and position.’’
French doors and stacker doors open to connect the home with the outdoors, while stone benchtops, plantation shutters, decorative wall panelling and feature lighting add elegance and character.
A soaring void with a striking coffered ceiling is set above a light-filled living and dining zone containing a feature fireplace.
This pairs with a beautiful Hamptons kitchen showcasing a double-bowl farmhouse sink, a 900mm Smeg cooker, a walk-in pantry, an integrated Bosch dishwasher, and a picture-window view over the blue of the pool.
Plush bedrooms and fully tiled bathrooms are zoned upstairs, including a main suite with a pool view.
Further features include zoned ducted heating and air-conditioning, a remote double garage, a security system, a garden shed, and an outdoor shower.
EASTERN BEACHES RETAIN POPULARITY
Brilliant sunshine and the popularity of the eastern beaches were the perfect combination recently for properties listed by Tom Offermann Real Estate.
Marketing agent Zoe Cooke was constantly busy at open-for-inspections during the four-week campaign for single-level, four-bedroom, three-bathroom house at 17 Rainbow Cres, Sunrise Beach.
Offering a relaxed coastal life in a tranquil cul-de-sac, just 700 metres to a wonderfully private stretch of Sunrise Beach, it attracted a great crowd especially locals and two very keen registered bidders on auction day. It was sold under the hammer to an overseas family for $2.225m.
SUNRISE STUNNER
Listed by Tom Offermann Real Estate marketing agents Nic Hunter and Tracy Russell, a stunning Sunrise Beach surprise at 28 Newfield St was always going to attract attention.
A seven-minute walk to squeaky white sand, everything about the house was sparkling new – a statement of the absolute latest in up-tempo design, form and function.
The four-bedroom, three-bathroom residence with a reserve backdrop to the lustrous pool was sold post auction, to a couple whose two-year search for their dream home was finally over.
Meanwhile, it was a close call at the auction for 26 Resolute St, Sunrise Beach, listed by Erica Newton. However, negotiations continue for the recently renovated three-bedroom, two-bathroom residence. It has a price guide of $2.7m.
Similarly post auction, for a rare gem of unparalleled beachside living at 36 Seaview Tce, Sunshine Beach, listed by Tom Offermann Real Estate marketing agent Tim McSweeney. The five-bedroom, four–bathroom residence is now listed with a price guide of $8.55m.
