“It’s like floating on top of world.’’
That’s how Lisa Hornsby at Dowling Neylan describes the property at 41 Picture Point Cres, Noosa Heads.
Lisa is taking the architect-designed four-bedroom house with pool on 1447sq m to auction at 11am on Saturday, October 9.
Nestled into the north facing side of Laguna Hill, this is a rare opportunity to secure this landmark residence which showcases expansive sweeping views across Noosa Main Beach to North Shore, Noosa River up to Tewantin and beyond.
“It’s a magnificent home,’’ Lisa said, “and first time to market in more than 40 years.
“Positioned across a double block zoned high density, there is the potential to redevelop the site.
“So many people who have admired the site have wanted to see it at the first chance.
“It has been an incredible response so far.
“People love the appeal of the location, being so close to Hastings Street, and the view.
“It is an architect-designed home, circa 1970s, on a 1447sq m double block.’’
Inquiry has been from locals, as well as interstate people living here, Lisa said.
“The interest from New South Wales and Victoria is huge.’’
UPGRADING OR DOWNSIZING
There are so many locals who have always wanted an Elizabeth St, Noosaville, address.
On Saturday, October 2, Kate Cox and Tony Cox of Reed & Co are taking the three-bedroom, two-bathroom, two-car duplex apartment with pool 2/36 Elizabeth St, to auction at 2.45pm.
There has been some interstate interest, Kate said, but predominantly it has been Brisbane and local.
“They are either upgrading or downsizing and attracted by the location.
“They have always wanted Elizabeth St, one block from Gympie Tce and because of privacy in general.
“This apartment has got elevation, breezes, high ceilings and generous bedrooms … it’s like a house.
“A quality build, with timber floors, stone benchtops and lots of light.
“It’s proving very popular … we thought it would be.’’
Much of the local interest is coming from those who have sold but are not leaving the area.
HAPPY OUTCOME
It was a great auction, Lian Scott of Wythes Real Estate said about 18 Mallee Cl, Doonan, on Saturday.
The four-bedroom, three-bathroom house on 1.55ha with six-car garaging attracted four registered bidders – from Brisbane and local as well as phone bidder from New South Wales.
It was a very sensitive sale, Lian said, as two brothers were selling the property on behalf of their parents.
It had been a happy home for them through the years.
“One of two brothers was on site and was that pleased with the results he was shaking.
“The other brother was on video call from the central coast of New South Wales.
“It sold under the hammer for $1.375m to the phone bidder from Terrey Hills in New South Wales.
“So there were very happy vendors and buyers.’’
A HOME WITH VIEWS
It’s a beautiful home … one that’s hard to find in this tight property market.
The five-bedroom, four-bathroom, three-car house at 18 Orealla Cres, Sunrise Beach, is set for auction at 12pm on Saturday, October 2.
Peter TeWhata of Tom Offermann Real Estate said the four-year-old house offered great sea views and hinterland sunsets.
There are main bedroom options both upstairs and downstairs, making it appealing to the extended family or dual living.
Situated 150m to the beach access, it’s almost a corner site and the vendor has put a rooftop terrace on to take advantage of the views.
It provides two levels of multiple living areas and long wide terraces.
The response has been mainly from locals and Brisbane, Peter said, as well as interstate.
ONE, TWO, THREE
Not one, not two but three … Roark Walsh at Tom Offermann Real Estate is taking two Hastings St dual-key apartments to auction today, Friday, at 9am that offers three separate bedrooms with individual bathrooms.
The Ocean Breeze apartments 16 and 17, 52 Hastings St, Noosa Heads, are directly across the road from Noosa’s beautiful Main Beach.
The two ground-floor apartments are linked by a balcony. Both are open plan with fully equipped kitchens.
Completely renovated, it is the only three-bedroom unit on one level in the complex and can be rented out in any format.
There are so many options, Roark said. Stay there and rent, have extended family visit, rent one, two or all three.
It’s overlooking the street so it has an external view and the joint courtyard is north facing.
Interest has been mainly Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne.
Roark also reported the sale post auction of 15 Woodlark St, Peregian Beach, to local buyers, moving sideways in the market.
“They were looking for a more expansive property with bigger views and quality finishes.’’
OUT OF TOWN
There is a lot more to the 42.9ha property at 23 Bidners Road, Lake Macdonald, than meets the eye, especially if you are simply looking from the road.
That is why Paul Bielby of Hinternoosa has been holding open for inspections nearly every day in the lead-up to today, Friday’s auction at 11am.
The opens have created a lot of interest, he said, particularly from some high-end buyers.
“You can only see about half the property from the road address,’’ Paul said. “You need a tour to get a good look at it.’’
Inquiry has been coming from business leaders in the Noosa hinterland as well as coastal areas, but also from Brisbane and further afield.
From the property you look straight at Cooroy Mountain, and there are some quality properties surrounding.
“It’s a really good block of land,’’ Paul said, “that’s been in same family for many years.
“Some high-profile people have tried to buy it over time. Now it’s ready to be sold.
“Vacant land is very rare in this market.
“There is a dairy farm next door so it’s fenced.
“People just have to look at the value of properties around the mountain.’’
Being part of the Lake Macdonald water supply catchment, the property cannot be subdivided under the current Noosa Plan.
Paul has just picked up a nice listing on Nandroya Rd – a Hamptons-look five-bedroom house on 2ha with views and a likely price of offers over $2.9m
A NEW APPROACH
All it took was a new approach and a fresh set of eyes and the three-bedroom, two-bathroom, two-car house with pool at 9 Netherby Rise, Sunrise Beach, sold for $3.180m.
The recently completed architectural masterpiece by Kelly Martin offered ocean views and four minutes walk to the beach.
It was the fourth highest sale in the street and the second-highest sale on the side of the street.
Ferdinand Braeutigam of Oceanside Properties said the property had been on the market but within 10 days of taking over the listing they had it sold.
“We took a new look at it and gave the campaign a fresh approach,’’ he said.
“It was an exciting time.
“There were six potential buyers and four offers submitted.
“In the video we explained the concept of the house and provided a detailed floorplan.
“Buyers respect that you are being clear and transparent throughout the process … they feel more confident.’’
Interest came from local and interstate, and in the end it was a buyer from Sydney who particularly liked the modern style of the home.
The entire ground level of the house seems endless with floating indoor–outdoor living to the north and south.
Two outside decks add a choice for entertaining and there is a 12-metre saltwater pool.
EVERYTHING YOU COULD WANT
An eight-bedroom, eight-bathroom, two-car house and cottage with pool on 1.31ha at Eumundi has everything a family or investor could want.
Complete with B&B licence, the property at 75 Eumundi Range Rd goes to auction Saturday, October 9, at 3pm.
Adam Kuczynski at Noosa Hinterland Realty said initial interest has been from South East Queensland mainly, some coastal areas of Noosa and Brisbane.
Then there are people from Victoria who are up here already.
“We have had good numbers at both open homes and generally the interest is to use the property for holiday rental or a family home with income potential.’’
The modern country-style Garth Chapman Queenslander features six bedrooms and six bathrooms, a separate two-bedroom renovated cottage and a two-car shed.
In an elevated position within walking distance of the town, there are multiple outdoor entertainment areas with views.
There is even a fully-fenced paddock with horse shelter and bore.
