Magnetism of Deep Wide Waterfront on Noosa Heads’ Exclusive Hideaway Island

The allure of living on a tranquil, deep-water expansive reach of two pristine waterways including nearby Noosa River, with uninterrupted river views the remarkable backdrop, and bright buffed and voluminous interior spaces exuding relaxed luxury, is undeniable, also tantamount to an idyllic Noosa lifestyle on exclusive Hideaway Island.

Yes, it is easy, just bring a boat, big appetite and thirst, if you’ve always aspired to a 20-metre, wider-than-most waterfrontage with wide white-sand tidal beach, being in close proximity to Hastings Street and Noosa Main Beach by boat or take a stroll to the restaurants in Quamby Place.

There’s a sense of privacy which defines this prestigious address and endorsed, when opening the gate into the beautifully landscaped garden with water feature and stone seat set amongst the heliconias, elephant ears and frangipani.

Cross the threshold, open the massive glass door into the entry foyer, stop and think wow. Look at the vertical panes and celestory height ceiling, easy-on-the-eye pastel grey palette, mocha-hued silk wallpaper and the startling feature wall of artfully positioned downlights.

Look beyond. Note how the high and mighty residence fans out across the over-generous living areas, how the abundance of northerly natural light shadow dances across endless lavish limestone flooring, and thanks to pocket albeit vanishing doors, coalesces with the great outdoors.

A breathtaking sight alfresco is the expansive north-facing terrace, almost the width of the residence. With it abutting sun terrace think multiple entertaining, lounging and leisure options.

The sun-splashed pool extends the realm of fun times, however it’s the magnetism of being on the waterfront that also ticks boxes. Swim in the white-sand shallows or launch a kayak; the jetty is the perfect spot for sundowners or to reel in tailor and whiting; and why not up-anchor the boat for more serious fishing in the open stretches of the nearby Noosa River towards The Everglades.

After a big day reeling in fish, the consummate entertainer will no doubt be inspired by those tasty views and placated by the prodigious kitchen with natural-toned stone-topped cabinetry including long island breakfast bar, open-style butler’s pantry with floor-to-ceiling shelving and all the bells and whistles of latest appliances.

Central to the living areas and kitchen is a custom-built bar.

When it’s time for sweet dreams there are five carpeted bedrooms, four with ensuite and walk-in robe and three with terrace or garden access. Upstairs the premier suite retreat opens to north-facing terrace with sweeping river views, has a generous walk-in robe, stunning bathroom with two-basin stoned topped cabinetry and walk-in shower. There are three additional king bedrooms on this level. On the ground floor is a premier king suite with walk-in robe, ensuite with deep free-standing bath and it opens to the front garden.

“The residence was designed by architect Greg Gibbes to exude contemporary sophistication, functionality and personality,“ remarks Tom Offermann Real Estate agent Roark Walsh, plus complement the privileged location with nothing but sand and water out the front. It really is top of the class.

“With so many naturally beautiful assets, waves peeling off the point at Noosa National Park, and Spring temperatures of 28-degrees, the north-facing protected Noosa Main Beach, also Quamby Place, Gympie Terrace, Hastings Street, and a plethora of restaurants, cafes, and boutiques all so close, the magnetism of the area is indisputable.

“That includes Hideaway Island. When you arrive for the first time at the location on the water’s edge, you instantly appreciate the name. It is precisely the natural beauty of the environs which will continue to underpin and grow property values.“
