Forward-thinking many years ago is seeing the benefits today with Little Cove Townhouses offering something that many developments have trouble providing – space.
It is a private complex of 12 townhouses with a sense of amenity that has proven to be highly valuable.
Luke Chen of Tom Offermann Real Estate is taking a two-bedroom, two-bathroom, one-car townhouse 3/1 Kareela Ave, Noosa Heads, to auction Saturday, 1 February, at 2pm.
“Back in the mid 1970’s a group of forward-thinking families secured this unique site, right beside the Noosa National Park,’’ Luke said.
“They also acquired the adjoining vacant site leaving half their development as gardens and lawn so future families would have open space to enjoy. This is very rare.’’
Across the road from Tanglewood Track in the national park, it is rubbing shoulders with the natural appeal of Noosa.
Bookings have been tight so open homes needed to be limited until now.
Early interest has been from Brisbane and Melbourne mostly.
Little Cove Townhouses are a 400m walk from Little Cove Beach and 800m from Hastings Street.
This townhouse comes with an open-plan living area, great potential to personalise, and a seamless connection to the natural surroundings.
The spacious lounge and dining area feature tiled flooring and air-conditioning.
Fully-furnished, the apartment is ready to live in as it is, with scope to personalise and add value with an update.
Stone benchtops highlight the fully-equipped kitchen that is neat and tidy, has plenty of bench space and an open layout adjacent to the dining area.
Outside, it’s like a private oasis with a covered outdoor alfresco area and elevated views across the in-ground pool, the sprawling lawned area, and gardens.
Upstairs there is beautiful timber flooring and a study space with a desk on the landing. The second bedroom has leafy views, two single beds, and a high, raked ceiling.
The main bedroom is spacious and has a walk-in robe as well as access to a private balcony overlooking the in-ground pool of the complex and the grounds. The wardrobe has the potential to be turned into an ensuite bathroom.
There is a remote-control awning over the terrace and a second outdoor space accessed from the main bedroom
The single lock up garage comes with remote control door and internal access.
A bathtub is in the main bathroom and the inventory is fully inclusive of furniture and accessories.
DUAL LIVING IN WEYBA PARK
Nathan Howie and Jack Newton at Noosa Estate Agents have listed an architect-designed home with pool in a central pocket of Noosa Heads.
With its central location, meticulously designed interiors, and exceptional dual-living potential, the two homes at 4 Weyba Park Dve, Noosa Heads, offer six-bedroom, four-bathroom, three-car living.
Set for auction at 1pm Friday, 24 January, it is within walking distance to the waterways and the Noosa Farmers Market, it is central to Noosa Heads and Noosaville.
On 887sq m, it would suit the extended family, Nathan said, as there is separate access to the self-contained second dwelling.
“There has been a mix of interest – perhaps evenly divided between interstate and local.
“Plenty of people have inspected at Wednesday and Saturday open for inspections.
“It’s quite a unique property for the amount of living space, and pretty much north-facing outdoor entertaining areas.
“This encourages you to take advantage of the outdoors, and there is side access for a boat or caravan.’’
Designed by Cameron Jones at Innovate Architects, it presents modern luxury and functionality.
The main residence features light-filled interiors with the open-concept design downstairs anchored around an entertainer’s kitchen, featuring bespoke cabinetry, stone countertops, and spacious butler’s pantry.
Engineered timber floors lend warmth and texture to the space, while the living area comes complete with a separate powder room, gas fireplace and sliding glass doors which blend indoor and outdoor living. That sets a resort-inspired tone.
The guest bedroom has a private ensuite and dedicated external entry that offers versatile accommodation for visitors or extended family.
Upstairs, the main bedroom suite is a private retreat, with a walk-in robe, a luxurious ensuite with brushed gold finishes, and a private balcony with lush, tranquil views.
Two additional bedrooms, a centrally located bathroom, a media room and a home office/nursery provide plenty of space.
Outside, the rendered finish, stone masonry, and modern cladding façade offer timeless street appeal.
The outdoor living domain features a barbecue zone and designated powder room, soaring ceilings that open to the landscaped gardens and a formed-edge pool.
A secure front gate with intercom provides access, while a separate automated gate offers undercover, secure parking for a caravan or boat.
Separated from the main residence is a council-approved, self-contained dwelling that features a gated entry with intercom, two king-sized bedrooms, a fully-equipped kitchen, comfortable living area with access to a private courtyard.
SERENE SETTING
Set on an elevated 5989sq m block in one of Doonan’s most coveted locations, a six-bedroom house with pool on 5989sq m is set for auction this month.
Listed with Mark Hodgkinson of Reed & Co, the property at 43 Regency Rd goes to the market at 12pm on Friday, 31 January.
The estate presents a rare combination of luxury, privacy, and natural beauty, Mark said, with sweeping panoramic views of the surrounding hinterland.
The two-level residence offers more than 700sq m of living space and blends modern comforts with timeless Queenslander charm.
“There has been a good response,’’ Mark said. “Properties such as this are attracting those upsizing, and seeking an expansive home.
“This includes locals looking for a generational home, in which they can accommodate children wanting to stay longer but who like some separation.
“Other interest is international – people with similar attitudes and looking to relocate. They want space and for the extended family to come and stay.
“Australia seen as a safe haven and a real attribute is its position – in a very popular street with close proximity to Noosa.
“It has views to the east so it has that going for it as well.
“Once inside, it’s a matter of scale with high ceilings, big verandahs and outdoor living areas.’’
A grand palm-lined driveway leads to the home that is surrounded by lush tropical gardens. Inside, high ceilings, polished timber floors, and plantation shutters enhance the open, light-filled spaces.
The upper level features three spacious bedrooms, including a main suite with walk-in robe and ensuite, plus a beautifully renovated main bathroom.
The gourmet kitchen, with Caesarstone benchtops and stainless-steel appliances, flows into expansive living and dining areas, all connecting to a wrap-around verandah.
The lower level offers versatility, with a self-contained living area. This space includes a modern kitchen, three bedrooms, a renovated bathroom, and a spacious living area with direct access to the large in-ground pool and entertainment zone.
There is a triple-car garage and storage, while the property’s manicured grounds come with sandstone retaining walls, established trees, and expansive lawns. Bore water irrigation ensures the gardens remain lush year-round.
