Doorstep of Little Cove Beach, lush rainforest backdrop

Alluring Little Cove is where the ocean meets the rainforest, and the world-famous 477-hectare Noosa National Park with walking trails and world recognised surfing reserve is on the doorstep. Minutes away Hastings Street and a sophisticated array of boutiques, art galleries and nationally known beachside restaurants and cafes, meets laidback Noosa Main Beach and Laguna Bay.

A stroll from Little Cove Beach in an exclusive enclave, cosseted by the Noosa National Park, is the aptly called Serenity Cove, a highly desirable holiday home with back-to back bookings. Easy to see why.

From the driveway, beautiful frangipanis, heliconia, bromeliads and golden cane palms at the front entrance, are an appropriate nod to the sub-tropics. Open the impressive glass and timber framed door into the pared-back lobby, note the quality build, contemporary aesthetic, warm soft palate and expansive double height windows attracting light through the void and shadow dancing across the honey-hued Tassie oak floors.

Look ahead and instantly picture the good life alfresco. A dazzling pool with custom timber sun lounges, surrounded in its entirety by expansive undercover terraces, and complemented by a lush green backdrop, takes complete centre stage. It suggests serious year-round summery vibes and a menu of easy-going days and nights of entertaining and family fun.

Over-generous, open plan living and dining spaces in the north and easterly wings, are connected to the terraces via numerous ‘disappearing’ glass sliders which coalesce naturally with outdoors. A few steps down to a pathway lead to the rainforest where tall eucalypts attract koalas, and peace reigns, except for native birds trilling and the creek trickling over rocks.

Commensurate in size and favouring a culinary wizard is the extra-large C-shaped kitchen with creamy-white stone benchtops, 2-pac cabinetry including pantry, high-end appliances and two serveries, one opening into the living area, and the other to the poolside terrace.

When it comes to slumber time even two families on holidays would have sweet dreams. In the south wing the upper and lower levels both feature a king master suite with floor-to-ceilings windows and identical fit-outs of walk-in robe, dressing room, ensuite with corner spa, walk-in shower plus views of the pool terraces and the rainforest. On the north side upper level is a third bedroom with three king single beds, built-in robe, ensuite and adjacent store, while the fourth bedroom downstairs along the hallway with a wall of windows looking to the pool, has two king single beds, a walk-in robe and the bathroom is next door.

“Serenity Cove’s address is first class,” enthuses Tom Offermann Real Estate agent Chris Miller, who is taking the property to auction on Sunday 27 February 2022. “The location is a jewel on Australia’s eastern seaboard, and this is a rare opportunity to own a slice of magic so close to many well-known beaches, world-class surf breaks, and the Noosa National Park.

“The regular ‘no vacancy shingle’ makes it a sure-fire investment magnet; alternatively, this residence is a sanctuary for those wishing to escape day-to-day life in the city; but either way it is a winner.”
