Boasting a deep-water mooring, incredible gun-barrel views which are never compromised, and enjoying a northerly aspect across a wide and tranquil reach of the Noosa River to a pristine stretch of bushland, is an incomparable luxury residence with whispers of classic brilliance.
Entry is via a walkway and courtyard garden with giant pivoting timber door evoking privacy and mystery. Open to reveal the ambitious work of formidable quality, organic materials including aged timbers (sourced from the old Brisbane Wharves), Italian limestone, cedar and rattan.
Boundless multiple living areas, of varying scale and mood, have soaring double height ceilings. The fireplace has a sandstone surround, a customised entertainer's bar in rosewood and granite obviously takes its cue from a mega yacht, similarly sumptuous cream micro suede sofas, complementary arm chairs, lavish-hand crafted timber dining table with comfy chairs, custom console and accessories.
Blurring the lines naturally from indoors to out exemplifying the adage of living loving the good life every day, are disappearing sliders stretching the width of the northern side, divulging unimpeded connections to the capacious entertaining terrace with statement Pandanus, outdoor kitchen, dining and leisure furniture. Next level alfresco is the luminescent mosaic-tiled pool ostensively suspended and morphing into the river.
Custom day beds with clever mirror-paned backs reflecting the long water view are the perfect place to drink in the moody theatrics at sunset, as the fiery vermillion orb is replaced by the moon's glow mirrored over the indigo-hued Noosa River. And why not jump into the boat moored on the jetty and spend the day fishing in the upper reaches of the Noosa River near The Everglades.
It is obvious, the up-to-the-minute artisan galley-style kitchen with stone-topped, VJ and rattan cabinetry including an extremely generous island breakfast bar and end block of hand-crafted timber, naturally has all the latest appliances and every accoutrement desired by the consummate entertainer – even Nigella Lawson!
A distinctive staircase leads to a mezzanine-style podium and blissful dream zones. There are two carpeted bedrooms with undercover terrace, daybeds and north-facing river views including the premier suite retreat. It has a walk-in robe, plantation shutters and granite tiled ensuite. On the east side is another bedroom, or is it an office while, on the west side is a lounge with sink-into sofas and custom cabinetry. Adjacent is the north-facing suite retreat with built-in robes plus an ensuite styled as per the previous.
On the ground floor are two similarly large bedrooms. The custom bunk room for four has built-in robes; the fifth bedroom has a walk-in robe and adjacent store room; both share a granite-tiled bathroom with pebble lined bath to soak away the blues; and plantation shutters look out to the palm-filled garden. A powder room and laundry are also located on this level.
"There's simply nothing like living or investing in a rare gem, located in the privileged, private front row on the waterfront," enthuses Tom Offermann Real Estate's Luke Chen and Principal Tom Offermann. "And it's mere minutes to Hastings Street's beachside restaurants, cafes and bars".
