Sunshine’s love affair with the ocean

The appeal of Sunshine Beach cannot be fully appreciated until you live there.

Roark Walsh of Tom Offermann Real Estate said those who have had that experience understand why Noosa is so highly sought.

On Saturday, 5 July, Roark is taking a two-bedroom, two-bathroom duplex apartment in Stevens St to auction.

One street back from the primary sand dunes 1/22 Stevens St has a great feel to it, Roark said.

“This is a great pocket at Sunshine, and until you live there you don’t really understand how good it is.

“Life moves at a calm pace. There is no through traffic, and it is a level walk to the village and surf club.’’

The apartment shares an in-ground pool. and offers entry-level buying into the Sunshine Beach market, Roark said.

There are ocean views from the balcony and white water from the rooftop terrace.

A multi-level build, the majority of living is on two levels.

The main bedroom is at street level then there is open living on the next level – dining, kitchen and lounge with plan with skylight.

A spiral staircase takes you up to the rooftop terrace while the second bedroom is down from street level and looks out to the pool.

“This is a chance to get into that pocket and it has holiday letting approval, so ticks a lot of boxes.

“At Sunshine you are surrounded by some of the best real estate.

“Noosa is regarded as being the furthest beach community north in Queensland where you can experience all four seasons.’’

Impeccably presented, the apartment showcases a stylish interior with high-quality finishes throughout.

The open-plan kitchen, dining, and living areas flow onto a balcony that overlooks the landscaped pool.

The kitchen is fitted with Bosch appliances, stone benchtops, and built-in refrigerator, and has split system air-conditioning installed as well as ceiling fans throughout.

There is a single garage with internal access, as well as off-street parking.

Watch for some good listings in good streets that Roark has got coming to the market.

THE LURE OF COASTAL LIVING

Bright blue, like a cloudless sky – that is the outlook from McAnally Dve in Sunshine Beach.

On Saturday, 5 July, Peter TeWhata of Tom Offermann Real Estate is taking a four-bedroom, three-bathroom, two-car house with pool at No.18 to auction at 12pm.

In a prized sand-dune location on a high point in Sunshine Beach, the property has 180-degree ocean views sweeping from the Noosa National Park in the north and along the eastern coastline to the central Sunshine Coast.

“There is very little available in Sunshine Beach at the moment,’’ Peter said, “especially with fantastic views.

“This is a great family home and it has those views – especially from the main bedroom upstairs.

“It’s a light-filled house nestled between the beach and the bushland of the national park. It comes with good separation of living areas and bedrooms, family and guests.

“The central lounge and pool encapsulates the feel of light and openness.’’

The white, bright contemporary home links to the beach. Brush past the landscaped front garden to an artisan-crafted timber front door.

Inside, there is a high void and designer chandelier that complements the Italian wall sconces.

The hallway comes with banks of louvres … on the north side the mosaic-tiled pool has a sun terrace, and beyond which opens into an impressive living/dining space.

A wall of almost disappearing doors, the width of the residence, allow not only volumes of natural light in and dance over the polished timber floors but also blur the lines from indoors to out.

The expansive main terrace has the perfect north-east facing aspect, and also provides for entertaining whatever the reason or season.

Similarly, a terrace on the north side connects directly to the very large pool in seemingly the centre of the house.

The striking galley-style kitchen by Poliform comes with natural-hued, stone-topped timber cabinetry, with high-end appliances from Miele and Bora.

Taking its elevated place in sun albeit the north-east side, is the premier bedroom suite which opens to a terrace and those sea views.

It has a roomy walk-in robe and an ensuite with natural-hued tiles and stone-topped single basin timber cabinetry.

On the lower level with natural stone are four bedrooms. Three have built-in robes, one has an ensuite and two share a family-size bathroom with a bathtub. There’s also a large, fully-equipped laundry, and storage on both levels.

LOOKING FOR LIFESTYLE

Showing why Doonan is becoming a hot spot for those seeking lifestyle properties, a house with pool and shed on 0.8ha that has views to the ocean is attracting good interest ahead of its auction on Saturday, 12 July.

The four-bedroom, three-bathroom, eight-car house, with office at 369 Duke Rd goes to the market at 3pm on the day with David Berns and Fiona Winter of David Berns Real Estate.

A four-bedroom, three-bathroom, eight-car house, with office, pool and shed on 8039sq m at 369 Duke Rd, Doonan, goes to auction Saturday, 12 July, at 3pm.

“Our open houses have had strong enquiry,’’ Fiona said, “from coastal interest mainly, looking for a quieter lifestyle.

“There have also been locals, and others who have been looking for a while for interstate family.

“The shed is a real blessing, rather than having to find space to build.

“What people like is the opportunities to enjoy different living areas, such as the pool being on the main level, and that there are views to the ocean from this elevated location.’’

Duke Rd has long been highly regarded in Doonan and this house has been designed for tranquillity and relaxation.

Open-plan living spaces flow on to expansive decks while the stylish kitchen comes complete with stone benchtops and high-end appliances.

The main bedroom suite features a spacious ensuite, walk-in robe, and direct access to a deck. Additional bedrooms are well-proportioned, including a self-contained bedroom with a private bathroom downstairs.

Designed with clean, modern lines and seamless indoor-outdoor integration, the home maximises natural light and space.

The 150sq m Colorbond shed includes a separate air-conditioned office and gym, both independently zoned, as well as additional car accommodation.

Outside, there is a resort-style heated pool and fire pit.

Multi-zoned ducted air-conditioning is installed and there is a 10kW solar system as well as solar hot water.
