Quintessential easy-breezy beach house at Marcus

Surrounded by the immense natural assets of Noosa National Park and five kilometres of dazzling white sand between Sunrise and Peregian, is Marcus Beach. It has long been known as an exclusive hidden utopia by the locals, and always much sought-after by those looking for the quintessential easy-breezy beach house close to the surf, naturally boasting ocean views.

An exemplary home, where summery vibes linger year-round, and easy-going days are always high on the agenda, is strategically elevated with a north-east Coral Sea aspect and a strong relationship to its lush, verdant landscaping.

It offers beautiful light-filled open plan living spaces, wispy curtains catching summer breezes, and honey-hued timber floors which connect in an almost seamless fashion, to a long wide verandah with cool-white plantation shutters.

The high-ceilinged spaces are warm and timeless yet balance intimacy, as well as adequacy for comfortable congregation in the dining area, also around the charcoal-toned granite kitchen benches. And for those with a penchant for entertaining, every necessary accoutrement is at the cook’s fingertips.

In the south wing, the carpeted king master bedroom has a walk-in robe and ensuite with tumbled marble feature tiles; in the north wing are two queen-size bedrooms; one accesses the verandah; both have built-in robes and share a marble-tiled bathroom with a spa bath. A separate toilet, also linen cupboards and a laundry chute are in the adjacent hallway.

Downstairs, a laundry with a toilet, also accesses the rear garden and drying area, plus there is a bedroom with built-in robe, currently used as an artist’s studio/office. It has a separate entrance via a paved undercover side terrace, fringed with one of many extensive gardens filled with native palms, bromeliads, orchids, and bird-attracting shrubs, all forming part of the home’s wildlife habitat.

Sandstone steps lead to the pool. Rock features complement the landscape and surrounds continuing the ongoing theme of interesting easy-care ’secret’ gardens.

“Imagine being a three-minute walk to dog-friendly Marcus Beach, and five minutes to the start of a Noosa National Park walking trail?“ say Tom Offermann Real Estate agents Eliza Coppin and Peter TeWhata, who are taking the property to auction on Saturday 6 November 2021, adding, “also living in a quiet neighbourhood, yet not far to Peregian Beach village.

“Those interested in a project will see the potential for additional living spaces downstairs, which is currently taken up by two sets of tandem parking for two cars.“
