12 Maher Terrace

Sunshine Beach QLD 4567

The dedicated dining space has custom oak-topped cabinetry and a wood burning fireplace while enthusiastic culinary creators will no doubt be inspired by the sophisticated galley-style kitchen. Commensurate with everything generous, it has honed marble-topped white cabinetry including island breakfast bar with designer pendants. There's a walk-in pantry, Zip Hydra Tap, drop-down TV plus the latest appliances from Miele and Gaggenau. A slide-away window connects to the terrace and outdoor kitchen with its teppanyaki barbeque.

Adjacent to the main living area is a media room, also a study.

It's all about being spoilt for choice when it comes to entertaining options whatever the season and who needs a reason. Each one evokes a sense of euphoria, equally on the ground level, albeit of the more casual kind. The leisure space includes a kitchenette/bar, microwave and fridge plus a wide window opens as a servery to an outdoor kitchen. Yes another! On the south side, slide-away glass walls open to the garden with its cute cubby house, or the pool area with travertine tiled terrace and sandstone waterfall feature.

There are several slumber zones. On the upper-level sleep mode is on bliss accompanied by the gentle sound of surf in the premier suite retreat with a terrace suggesting a morning cuppa. There's a fashionista-style walk-in robe and luxe travertine-tiled ensuite with stone topped two-basin white cabinetry. Two bedrooms also have terraces with different aspects, plus built-in robes and a bathroom including stone topped single basin white cabinetry and bathtub, styled as per the ensuite. Two on the ground floor in the south-east wing have access to a terrace, plus walk-in robes and ensuites. The sixth bedroom has a built-in robe, bathroom and a separate toilet.

Living the best life also comes with extras especially for those loving the spirit of fitness and a serious functional training studio/gym. Prefer the great outdoors? Wake to the sound of waves breaking on the foreshore, grab the board and be on the beach in mere minutes; and take the 7km walk through the Noosa National Park via Hells Gates and Alexandria Bay to Hasting Street.

"Let the good times roll, Sunshine Beach has never looked so good," suggests agent Nic Hunter, "and this truly is the ultimate beach house entertainer. Bask in the notion of blue-sky beachy days, balmy nights tinged with vitamin sea, year-round summer tranquility, and mere minutes to squeaky white sand and surf breaks.

"It is a stellar ray on Sunshine Beach where you'll enjoy the amenable sub-tropical climate, anonymity at one of the world's best beaches or at nearby vibrant Sunshine Beach village, with its bars, eateries and surf club, where the local café society preserves the 'barefoot if you like' attitude. Respect for personal privacy is certainly integral to the local way of life.
