Position counts when it comes to property

Whale by name and whale by nature – a quintessential beach house which is so peaceful and quiet abutting the national park is ideal as a full-time residence or holiday home.

The five-bedroom, three-bathroom, two-car house with pool at 30 Whale Dve, Sunshine Beach, goes to auction Saturday, 29 March, at 1pm.

Marketed by Rebekah Offermann and Nic Hunter of Tom Offermann Real Estate, it offers bush walks from the back door or be in the surf at A-Bay or Sunshine Beach within 10 to 15 minutes.

“Interest has been from far and wide,” Rebekah said, “with people loving the bright and sunny vibes from every room, the north-facing verandah and pool area, and the lovely sea breezes that it welcomes.”

Poised at the end of an acclaimed street, it was nature-inspired – specifically a prized sand dune on a high point in northern Sunshine Beach, with green hillsides and views of the Noosa National Park northside, and of the ocean to the south.

With an impressive sense of arrival, the invitation to go upstairs is undeniable. Beautiful honey-hued timber floors for the multiple indoor living spaces.

Expansive layered terraces the width of the house and more are on both levels.

The white, C-shaped, granite-topped cabinetry kitchen includes an island breakfast bar with curved fluted timber sides, and which flows into the dining and living areas.

The premier bedroom suite comes with roomy walk-in robe and ensuite, with adjoining bedroom or perhaps office. There is a shared terrace to enjoy whale watching during the season or hear waves breaking on the foreshore.

On the ground level are three carpeted bedrooms, a bathroom with spa bath, and a leisure space. Like two of the bedrooms, it accesses an undercover terrace.

Splash around in the pool; star gaze from the sun terrace; birdwatch from the daybed; and listen as waves gently lap the shore of A-Bay.

“You are totally surrounded by the sight and sounds of nature,” Rebekah said. “It provides never-ending options for exploration and enjoyment.”

LUXURY IN THE HINTERLAND

In an elevated positioned at Doonan, a four-bedroom, four-bathroom home on 0.67ha stands as a testament to European inspired elegance.

The house, at 391 Sunrise Rd, includes flood-lit tennis court and infinity-edge swimming pool.

Marketed by David Conolly and Luke Skinner of Century 21 Conolly Hay Noosa, it is for sale by expressions of interest.

A living experience that blends elegance with nature, the house includes thoughtfully designed bathrooms and ensuites to create a sanctuary of comfort and sophistication.

The architecture combines natural materials, lending a timeless beauty to the facade while seamlessly integrating with the lush surroundings.

With sweeping panoramic views of Laguna Bay, Sunrise Beach, Castaways, and Coolum, there is a visual connection to the vibrant coastal landscape.

Inside, high ceilings and timber floors add warmth and openness, while Miele appliances highlight the villa’s commitment to quality.

The infinity pool provides breathtaking views, while the private, championship-size tennis court is LED floodlit, and has a viewing pavilion.

Additional amenities include a wine cellar, steam room, and professionally-designed gym.

There is a 14.4kW solar system, 9.6kW battery storage and an electric car charger installed.

SOPHISTICATION AND CONVENIENCE

With a commanding presence less than 100 metres to the Noosa River, a three-bedroom, two-bathroom Noosaville apartment is attracting strong interest from interstate as well as local.

Dean McLure of McLure Prestige is marketing the Asoon apartment with pool at 1/20 James St at offers from $3.0m.

One of five in the complex that in many ways set the tone for the area, Dean said interest in the apartment was from Sydney and Melbourne especially.

Yet locals were looking as well – downsizers, and those upgrading their position. However, the Noosa River precinct lifestyle was also attracting them away from the busier areas, Dean said.

This recently-renovated Paul Clout-designed apartment offers a perfect blend of sophistication and convenience.

The thoughtfully designed open-plan layout invites a relaxed lifestyle, with the dining and kitchen areas flowing out to a private outdoor entertaining space with saltwater pool.

All bedrooms are upstairs, the main complete with an ensuite, a spa bath and a walk-in robe.

Downstairs, a study nook provides a functional and quiet workspace.

There is dual-zone air-conditioning, electric blinds, and intercom system.

The property features a two-car garage, along with an additional auxiliary park to store a boat or jet ski.

WATERFRONT BRINGS BUYERS

The Asoon Noosa listing for Dean McLure comes fresh on the heels of a sale prior to auction in February of a five-bedroom, three-bathroom house in Noosa Waters.

The waterfront house with pool and jetty at 13 The Promontory sold to South Australian interests for $7.2m.

Multiple offers were involved in the negotiations, Dean said.

With north-facing position and designed by Paul Clout, the property sold in 2022 for $6.4m.
