Imagine a deep sapphire blue waterway, bright blue cloudless sky, and a stellar mid-century modern waterfront displaying effortlessly cool splendour and style that supersedes all, and one for the glossy magazines.
From the cul de sac there's an air of mystique with its classy façade but behind the public persona, an imposing walkway reveals itself as ostensibly a private and serene sanctuary.
However, open the massive custom glass paned door and the substantial residence teases with Stephen Kidd's idiosyncratic design, juxta-positioned against his creative vision and innate sensibility of mid-century modern. It is best characterised here by two specific yet connected pavilions, clerestory high flat and raked roof lines with VJ panelling, floor-to-ceiling louvre windows, and many more quintessentially Australian elements.
Admire the clerestory-height void in the entry foyer, and a terrace walkway to lofty walls of glass doors which have disappeared to showcase a substantial living and dining area with custom cabinetry, dynamic designer lighting and naturally attracting oodles of sunlight. It ostensibly shadow dances everywhere across the endless travertine flooring.
Look beyond. Once again bespoke cavity doors disappear divulging alfresco design excellence, blurring the lines between indoors and out to the undercover perfect-for-entertaining terrace with outdoor kitchen, plus almost 180 degree views of two wide waterways.
There are whispers of Palm Springs with four gracious foxtail palms set into the lawn which abuts the revetment wall and the longer-then-usual jetty. Think only of fun with family and friends, stunning sunsets, kayaking and paddle boarding, and taking the boat to the Everglades and Lake Cootharaba via the Noosa Waters' residents-only lock and weir system.
Akin to taking a seat in a garden theatre is the north-west-facing terrace, a true oasis of calm, with lengthy luminescent infinity-edged pool taking centre stage, whilst slightly abutting is a terrace off the dining room fringed with frangipani, bromeliads, ferns and hedges.
Continuing the high-end everything everywhere for all reasons and seasons, is the stunning custom kitchen with every accoutrement on the wish-list of a passionate cook. It comprises travertine topped white cabinetry including island breakfast bar and lengthy bench with upper glass paned timber cabinetry stretching to the dining space. There are two designer chandeliers and premium appliances from Miele, Bosch and Samsung.
When it comes to next level bliss zones there are four bedrooms. Upstairs with raked VJ ceilings and wispy linen sheers, are two premier king suites and sunrooms with banks of louvres and overlooking the waterways, with built-in robes, custom bedheads, travertine ensuites plus a lounge on the northside. Two premier-style suites downstairs have built-in robes, travertine ensuites and one has a bathtub. Both have direct access to the sun terraces and pool. Nearby is the laundry room.
With warmer days ahead and sparkling Noosa Waters at its most breathtaking, the time is right to experience the pinnacle of stellar waterfront luxury. "Everything your heart desires … and more, is here," comment Tom Offermann Real Estate marketing Eric Seetoo. "The location is second-to-none and this is undoubtedly a blue-ribbon address. "Noosa Waters is known nationally as one of Australia premier housing precincts because of its high calibre residences, award-winning designs, deep-water frontages, and the residents only access via a lock and weir system. Pride of ownership is evident throughout the estate with well-maintained gardens, streetscapes and numerous parks, all tantamount to a prevailing overtone of community, family safety and security. "The world really is your oyster, and this is an extraordinary opportunity to own a substantial slice of Noosa magic."
