Once you have been to Little Cove, it’s generally a case of never forgetting it.
My first visit was on a surfing trip in the late 1960s … on a November afternoon with the sound of cicadas filling the air in the trees.
The water was warm, the waves were “cracking” – in sound and in quality. There were three out at National, no-one at Johnsons.
As the sun set behind the masts and spars of a yacht at rest in the bay, it was a matter of knowing that you would return.
Such is the magic that the filtered views through the trees to the water. That and the sight of the full moon over Laguna Bay.
At the time you could buy a fibro house for $65,000.
On Saturday, 13 December, Rebekah Offermann and Nic Hunter from Tom Offermann Real Estate will offer a three-bedroom, two-bathroom, one-car beachside apartment 1/2 Pandanus St, Noosa Heads, for auction at 1pm.
“Enquiry has been going off,” Nic said. “It’s spacious and part of a boutique build of 12.
“It has it’s own custom-designed storeroom for longboards.”
Perfectly positioned directly opposite Little Cove Beach, 50 footsteps to the sand, the north-facing, ground-floor apartment, with its exclusive lagoon-style pool, is in Little Cove Court.
A split-level design facilitates excellent separation, and its end position ensures privacy, access, natural light, and sea breezes are maximised.
Floor-to-ceiling glass in the living room showcases a stunning vista across the pool to the shimmering azure blues and turquoise greens of the Coral Sea.
From here, you can check out beach and surf conditions each morning.

“North-facing and with golf course outlook, the villa has had some beautiful renovation work,” Nic said.
“Everyone has admired the freshness.”

The designer kitchen is both functional and refined, featuring thick Caesarstone benchtops, an oversized island breakfast bar, and a full suite of premium Miele appliances including dual ovens, induction and wok burners, plate warmer and dishwasher.
The main bedrooms – one on each level – both come with expansive ensuites, walk-in robes and sweeping fairway views.

CLARITY IN DESIGN, OUTLOOK
A three-bedroom, two-bathroom, two-car penthouse apartment at Noosa Heads has created a high water mark in coastal design and construction.
Located in a prized hillside pocket, elevated above Main Beach and Noosa Sound, the apartment 2/10 Natasha Ave, is set for auction Saturday, 13 December, at 2pm with David Conolly and Luke Skinner of Century 21 Noosa.
This penthouse features family room, private lift, powder room, northern aspect and private pool.
Tea Tree Residences come with a rare signature of coastal form and function, the result of collaborations between Chris Clout Design and MBC Prestige.
“What draws me to the penthouse is the confidence and clarity in its design,” Luke said.
“Chris Clout has crafted something that feels effortlessly modern yet deeply coastal, a style that resonates with today’s premium buyers.
“The finishes are refined, the spaces flow beautifully, and from the upper-level balcony you get those calming water views that make every day feel like a getaway.
“It sits on one of Noosa’s quietest, most private streets, so it truly becomes a hidden retreat. It’s the kind of home that attracts people who value design, tranquillity, and that understated Noosa luxury.”
Each of the Tea Tree Residences has been meticulously designed by Chris Clout to maximise natural light and space and create supreme liveability in a world class location.
The result is a collection of homes where space and natural light converge, where convenience and opulence are intertwined, and where refined designer style harmonises with the beauty of the surrounding landscape.
Here, the bedrooms are spacious, the bathrooms beautifully appointed, you have a family room, and a private lift.
The northern orientation ensures sunlight throughout the day, while a private pool provides a stylish retreat.
The result is a residence that elevates liveability to an art form, perfectly suited to its world-class location.
COWS INCLUDED IN SALE
It was always going to sell – the question was would it be before auction or on the day.
As it turns out the four-bedroom, two-bathroom, one-car house with pool on 2ha at 478 Black Mountain Rd, Black Mountain, sold prior to the Wednesday, 26 November, auction date.
Jeanette Catalano and Mario Catalano at Hinternoosa were marketing the property – in an elevated position with barn and dam.
It was sold unconditionally on the Friday afternoon prior, when a buyer decided he had to have it and wanted to shut the auction down, Jeanette said.
“The new owners are a young couple who shifted interstate for work a few years ago but are now moving up here as they have started their own family, and want to be closer to their family.”
The buyers are keen to add their personal touches … and will keep the two cows that were offered as part of the sale.
With postcard views over Noosa hinterland to Mt Cooroora and the Tableland Ranges, the property has three paddocks and features a three-bay American barn shed with extra-height middle door, power and workbench
Meanwhile, the 12.11ha at Eerwah Vale with sheds, dam, stock yards and creek was passed in on the Thursday at $1.8m.
The property at 52 Musavale Rd attracted two registered bidders but Jeanette and Mario are now dealing with fresh interest.
