5-7 Nyes Crescent, Buderim QLD 4556

This unique, north facing property, set in half an acre of rainforest and shielded from street view, offers surprise at every turn.

Positioned conveniently close to shops, schools and only minutes away from Maroochydore CBD and the Sunshine Coast's famous beaches and picturesque hinterland, it offers the best of all worlds.

Comprised of three separate pavilions, the home has three spacious bedrooms across two pavilions, two bathrooms, a powder room and a study - all linked by a timber walkway and atrium space.

The home was designed by award-winning builder/designer Damian Carstens of Ethos Built Homes', whose experience in both Bali and Japan is reflected throughout. The Eastern influence is carried further by the use of neutral tones and polished wooden floors, with internal timber frames and vaulted ceilings providing an additional sense of space. Tori gates and other oriental features continue the theme.

Built to the climate - sliding glass doors, large picture windows and louvres capture sea breezes and bring the surrounding green inside.

A feeling of calm and relaxation immediately embraces the visitor when entering the paved courtyard, where dragon flies flit above fountains in the two-tiered pond and surrounding kitchen garden.

On entering the main pavilion, the eye is drawn past the formal dining area to a spacious covered deck whose gable soars above the tropical garden below.

This sense of being among the trees invites long afternoons and evening barbecues with family and friends.

The roomy kitchen adjoins the living area and invites communication during meal preparation. Granite bench tops and copious storage space add further to its attraction.

The master bedroom has a walk-in robe and Bali-inspired ensuite opening on to private sundeck which allows for sunbathing and relaxation after a shower or soak in the sunken bath.

The second pavilion houses the second and third bedroom and is fully self -contained. It offers an array of options - including work from home, Airbnb, guest accommodation, teenage retreat or granny flat.

The third pavilion consists of a large double garage and well-lit workshop/studio. There is extensive storage space for large items as well as tools and equipment.

Two shade houses and a potting shed with sinks give the avid gardener a roomy work space. A 20010L water tank supplies rainwater to the house with the option of switching to town supply.

At the front of the property, a series of boardwalks meander through the tiered rain forest where a contemplative sitting area invites the passer-by to pause and admire the beauty of the surrounding tones and textures.

Adventure abounds for children to explore the bamboo grove that squeaks and groans in the breeze.

Whether enjoying the tranquil tones of the courtyard fountain, delighting in the visiting wildlife and seasonal birds or simply being' in one of the many tranquil spaces - this truly is a home for all seasons.
