It was an action-packed weekend in Noosa as records continued to tumble at property auctions.
A world-class apartment in Hastings Street with megawatt-lustrous views over Noosa Main Beach and Laguna Bay, has smashed the Queensland sales record.
The uber-luxe Coco Privé residence which was marketed as ‘beyond expectations’ in Bayview Rd, Little Cove, has followed that by achieving a new sales record for Little Cove.
Tom Offermann Real Estate recorded a five-out-of-five tumultuous auction tally for the weekend of $40,905,000 in sales.
This follows the sale earlier this month of a residential house at Little Cove for $16.4m.
Saturday was a perfect day for the private auction of four-bedroom apartment 5/81 Hastings St, in the Hastings Park complex.
Marketed by Tom Offermann and daughter Rebekah Offermann, it sold for a new record apartment price of $16,100,000.
This eclipsed the company’s previous apartment record of $14million in nearby Noosa Court, also in Hastings Street.
“But it’s not all about records,” Tom Offermann said. “It is about the deep desire people have to own premium property in prime locations such as Noosa Heads.
“Close behind the winning bidders were four others, so for us the search is on for a beautiful property to suit.”
The apartment last changed hands in 2014 for $4.50m, and since then it has undergone a multi-million-dollar renovation and large extension.
On Sunday the multi-level home Coco Privé at 1 /1-7 Bayview Rd was put to the market by Tom Offermann Real Estate’s Chris Miller.
Described as “indisputable luxury on tap,” it was the latest incomparable showpiece from the celebrated design and development team of Glen and Deborah Watson.
Nestled in an exclusive enclave, hugged by the Noosa National Park and a few minutes from Little Cove Beach, it attracted an excited crowd of 140 and nine registered bidders.
Auctioneer Gordon Macdonald accepted the opening bid of $8m, and it was “conservative bidding” until $10m when the heat was turned up.
There were several big increases of $500,000 and above, until declared “sold” at $13.5m to Melbourne buyers.
It was a new record for Little Cove, surpassing the previous $11.2m.
The remarkable marketing campaign included the property being the most viewed in Queensland for each week, online video views were at record levels, and national and local media complemented with consistent prominent mentions.
The sellers were overwhelmed with the attentiveness of Tom Offermann Real Estate, the endless stream of potential buyers, also the dedicated support from the team on auction day adding their expertise to accommodate multiple phone bidders and facilitate such a well-attended event.
Chris Miller is ecstatic, albeit shell-shocked.
