As the Maroochy River weaves its way through the land, only a handful of properties call the riverbank home. This is one of them - a rare sanctuary where every sunrise shimmers on the water and every sunset lingers over the hills.
Perfectly positioned on one of the widest stretches of the river, directly opposite the heritage-listed Dunethin Rock, this 12.68-hectare (31-acre) estate blends natural beauty with modern comfort. It offers all the privacy of rural living while being just minutes from Coolum Beach, Noosa, and the Sunshine Coast Airport.
From the sweeping concrete driveway to the manicured lawns and gardens, every detail has been carefully planned. Spend mornings fishing from your private jetty, launch your boat from the concrete ramp, or take in the river's reflections from the expansive wrap-around veranda. Life here is built around movement, play, and pause - a seamless blend of adventure and serenity.
The main residence is a classic Queenslander, thoughtfully modernised while staying true to its heritage. Inside, soaring ceilings, VJ walls, bamboo flooring, and abundant natural light create an inviting warmth. The heart of the home is the designer kitchen with stone benchtops, Bosch appliances including a new oven and rangehood, and a service window that makes entertaining effortless. Zoned ducted air-conditioning, smart lighting, and integrated security cameras provide year-round comfort and peace of mind.
Four spacious bedrooms and three bathrooms are complemented by two distinct living areas - one overlooking the pool and gardens, the other designed for gathering family and friends. The master suite is a private retreat complete with a spa bath, while the remaining bedrooms offer space and privacy for all. Beneath the house, you'll find a full bathroom, extensive storage, and undercover parking for four vehicles, with a lift providing easy access across all levels.
A separate self-contained barn offers fully furnished guest accommodation or a space for extended family. With polished concrete floors, two-tone VJ walls, separate living and dining areas, bathroom, laundry, and air-conditioning, it's beautifully appointed and ready to enjoy. An upstairs mezzanine provides valuable storage, while three remote-control roller doors add practical versatility for workshop & parking access. The barn is not council approved as a liveable space.
The outdoors are just as impressive. A 12-month-old pool forms the sparkling centrepiece of summer days, surrounded by lush gardens and tranquil views. With 152 metres of private river frontage, this is a water lover's dream - fish from your jetty, paddle a kayak at sunrise, or launch a boat right from your property. Positioned on a sweeping bend of the river, every evening offers a spectacular sunset over the water.
Three-quarters of the land is fully fenced and ideally set up for hobby farming or equestrian pursuits, with four paddocks, and cattle yards complete with a head bail and loading ramp. Two dams provide water for livestock, and the level, well-drained land makes for easy maintenance and productive use. A five-bay machinery shed offers secure space for vehicles, farm equipment, or additional storage.
