It’s a great beach house – a gorgeous home.
Tracy Russell of Tom Offermann Real Estate is taking the four-bedroom, three-bathroom house at 72 Tingira Cres, Sunrise Beach, to auction Saturday, 9 August, with colleague Tim McSweeney.
Built in 1989 and lived in the whole time, the house was designed in conjunction with a professional pole home specialist.
Constructed of hardwood, it has been beautifully maintained, Tracy said, and is nicely proportioned.
“People are loving it – the space, the high ceilings, the northern aspect. It’s just divine in winter … so protected.
“They love the privacy and leafy outlook.”
One of 12 properties in the strip that has foreshore bushland outlook as well as the ocean, the house has a family-friendly layout with three of the bedrooms upstairs.
“Quite a lot of interest has been from locals,” Tracy said. “Those living here and who love the spot.
“They have always had an eye on the pocket. There are so few properties such as this and people are keen to take the opportunity.”
The beachside house goes to the market at 12pm.
With a covered walkway past lush azaleas, giant bromeliads and palms in the front garden opens to a slate-floored hallway.
Built as a labour of love and enduring family memories almost four decades ago, the carpeted living and dining areas with rich tones of cedar and white VJ dados, benefit from the ever-so lofty voids with layers of natural light.
Slide-away doors the width of residence coalesce with the undercover angular terraces which wrap the east and west sides.
Look at the views towards the Noosa National Park in the north then sweeping the eastern seaboard.
The hub of the home is the roomy C-shaped kitchen with oak flooring and granite-topped, white cabinetry, including a semi-island breakfast bar and large pantry.
Premium appliances include an ice-maker fridge.
The laundry room has a separate toilet, and a walk-in linen store is nearby. Then there’s a 2000 bottle air-conditioned cellar.
Living and leisure spaces continue on the lower level with slide-away doors blurring indoors to out and the undercover terrace, again with sea outlook.
In addition to a designated open study or maybe a craft space, there’s a kitchenette/bar and custom seating. There are four carpeted bedrooms with three in the slumber zone on the upper level including the main with walk-in robe, and a custom beauty bar plus a bidet in the ensuite.
Two bedrooms have built-in robes and a share bathroom with shower/bath also separate toilet, while on the lower level the bedroom has built-in robes, separate shower and a powder room.
INSTANT ATTRACTION
Did you hear the story about the late 1980s holidaymakers at Sunshine Beach?
It was either their car or caravan that needed repairs and, while waiting, they walked up the street to the new Pacific Villas development.
The apartments were selling off the plan … so they bought one.
Now, 35 years later, the spacious multi-level apartment at 2/18 Bryan St is going to auction on Saturday, 23 August, at 12pm.
Adam Offermann of Tom Offermann Real Estate is marketing the property – two bedrooms with studio, three bathrooms and one-car accommodation.
The Mediterranean-inspired residence, spread over four levels, showcases sophistication and dual living zones, with panoramic north-easterly white sand and ocean views – from Lions Headland, the Noosa National Park and down to Mooloolaba.
“It’s a John Mainwaring design and these are the original owners,” Adam said. “They picked the top level.
“This is a great location, high on the ridge but still a short walk to the beach and village.
“The views are the key, with the north-easterly aspect perfect for winter days.
“The apartment has been updated through the years but has been kept as true to the original as possible.”
Early interest has been from Brisbane, Victoria and some locals looking to downsize.
They are captivated by the spaciousness and love the feel of the era, Adam said.
The main living area is filled with curves and sculpted forms that evoke exotic resort opulence complemented by terracotta tile flooring, a fireplace, and an open-plan design that flows straight out onto the sun-drenched terrace.
On level two, there are two bedrooms and two bathrooms including the stunning main suite.
Offering a spacious sanctuary, the main bedroom has a study nook, a decadent private ensuite with stand-alone tub, and an exclusive full-length terrace with those ocean and coastline views. Each bedroom has a private terrace.
With separate exterior access, there is a studio on the ground floor which has a bedroom area, lounge space, bathroom, laundry, and a terrace overlooking tropical gardens. This has the potential to be used for multi-generational living, an art studio, dual living space, or teenage retreat.
Upstairs is an exclusive rooftop terrace that opens up the sweeping ocean views from north to south.
Pacific Villas is a secure, gated boutique complex of 10 villas with a lagoon pool.
A SENSE OF FUN
Adam Offermann and Tracy Russell have just launched an iconic Peregian Beach house to the market.
The four-bedroom, two-bathroom, two-car beachside house with pool at 2 Landrail St goes to the market on Saturday, 30 August, at 1pm.
“It’s a fun beach house in a nice location,” Adam said.
“Elevated and directly opposite the beach, there is sun, serenity and sea breezes in abundance.”
PRIVATE HINTERLAND SANCTUARY
A three-bedroom home with study and pool on 1.68ha at Doonan blends striking contemporary design with the natural beauty of its bushland setting.
Going to auction on Friday, 22 August, at 12pm with Kess Prior and Ruth Venning of Hinternoosa, the house at 163 Tallgum Ave comes with three bathrooms and two-car accommodation.
“It’s the kind of place where you instantly feel at ease,” Kess said, “and don’t get me started on the luxury.”
Privately positioned in an exclusive Doonan cul-de-sac, this striking Barn House residence is a masterclass in style and elegance, crafted by renowned designer Georgina Price in collaboration with architectural stylist Gaston Ottl and the expert team at GTO Build.
A seamless blend of natural beauty and refined luxury, it offers a peaceful retreat with soaring ceilings, floor-to-ceiling glazing and a suspended wood fireplace to define the expansive open-plan living space.
This brings in soft natural light and panoramic views of the surrounding bushland.
A chef’s kitchen with Smeg appliances, stone island, and full butler’s pantry opens to the alfresco deck and designer saltwater pool.
The main bedroom suite includes wool carpets, a walk-in robe, and a beautifully-appointed ensuite with travertine and New York feature tiles, twin vanities, and a free-standing outdoor bath.
The separate family wing features two additional bedrooms, a spacious office or fourth bedroom with deck access, and a private media or second living room.
Sustainability and style go hand in hand, with louvred windows for passive cooling, ducted air-conditioning, and a powerful 16kW solar system with a 12.8kW back-up battery.
Two stainless steel tanks provide 44,000 litres of rainwater storage, supporting self-sufficient living.
The oversized, insulated double garage is equipped with a 22kW three-phase, dual-cable EV charger.
