Admire exclusive Eumundi Estate, a riverstone entry reveals a dramatic driveway sculpted by nature's verdant offerings. And on the forever sunny side, commanding the most spectacular presence, stands the absolute exhilaration and majesty of a handsome Queenslander. Is this Paradise found, just 15 minutes from vibrant café central on Noosa River's Gympie Terrace?
It's easy to see why classic Queenslanders are so loved and highly valued, especially when contemporary iterations pay homage to their romantic architectural style. Picture the key hallmarks: a high-set, white weatherboard construction, corrugated iron roof, signature verandahs on three sides, and a grand double-entry staircase.
Step inside. This is an immaculate residence, intelligently designed and masterfully revitalised. Packed with personality and over-generous in scale, it features rich polished oak floors, French doors, lofty VJ ceilings, decorative dados, intricate fretwork, and wide architraves.
A calming pastel monochromatic palette flows throughout-from the welcoming foyer to the multiple bedroom suites, along the hallway, and into the bright living and dining zones. Natural light dances across the oak flooring and spills seamlessly to the outdoors on three sides, suggesting entertaining for all reasons and seasons is de rigueur. And let's not forget those wide, sun-drenched views across the estate, the dazzling pool, and the ravishing rotunda.
Honed and toned to complement, the kitchen-equal in size to a commercial fit-out-features stone-topped cabinetry, a butler's-style pantry, and all the expected accoutrements, including a gas cooktop.
Downstairs, a self-contained retreat with its own entry offers two bedrooms, a bathroom, living/dining area, and a fully equipped kitchen.
Across the path lies The Villa, a charming guest house complete with wheelchair access, blackbutt floors, verandahs, two bedrooms, two bathrooms, kitchenettes, and multiple living/dining areas.
If you're into Ash Barty or Alex de Minaur, you'll be thrilled with the full-size tennis court-complete with umpire's chair. Prefer basketball? There's a backboard and basket for that too.
Nature lovers will be enchanted by walking tracks through native bushland and the freshwater Jacaranda Creek, which meanders through the 9.54-hectare property, attracting a priceless array of wildlife: ducks, cormorants, rosellas, lorikeets, cockatoos, kangaroos, and wallabies.
Livestock enthusiasts will appreciate the eight fenced grazing paddocks, two large fish-filled dams topped with water lilies, as well as the three-bay machinery shed with power and a rainwater tank.
The lure of an idyllic, sophisticated lifestyle is undeniable especially when the address is perched on a picturesque ridge just 700 metres from the world-famous Eumundi Markets, 15 minutes to riverside café culture on Gympie Terrace, and 20 minutes to the boutiques and beachside cafés of Hastings Street and the remarkable Noosa National Park.
