Step straight onto the page of an exotic novel as you pass through the twin gates of this exciting beachside property. The massive grey fronds of twin Bismarkia Nobilis palms rise from kerbside garden beds, while an oasis of sub tropical vegetation and lily topped ponds wrap themselves around three separate pavilions. Authentic thatch roofs capture the ambience of an exclusive island resort, a fifteen metre two lane wide lap pool skirts the length of the main living room and a privately situated guest bungalow sits amongst an absolute profusion of vegetation.

Stone pathways edging Sir Walter turf lead you into an open pavilion where you are enveloped in the spirit of the South Pacific. With a nature reserve as your immediate neighbour and the beach so deliciously close, you can relax to the soundtrack of birdlife and waves meeting a sandy shoreline. Timber framed sliding glass doors and casement windows line the main pavilion and an Island bench kitchen in tones of deep grey and aubergine sits comfortably against the tactile feel of polished concrete floors. Light from the north east reflects the waters of the pool and lofted ceilings catch a coastal breeze.

The main bedroom suite is a haven of restful indulgence, with plentiful cupboard space and integrated storage A garden view shower room has crisp white floor to ceiling porcelain tiles, twin shower heads, the glint of paua shell above the vanity and a volcanic rock outdoor bath alongside a lily pond. One almost expects the sound of a conch shell on the breeze. The third pavilion with its outdoor shower and pool view is bound to elicit a smile from guests. With the assistance of a professional garden designer the grounds are alive with ginger, heliconia, peace lily and a myriad of tropical species. Beautiful to live within and self nurturing, they require little care. Originally designed as a weekend escape from Sydney for a busy couple, it is a five minute cab ride from the Sunshine Coast Airport. This captivating beach house will lift your spirits on a daily basis.
