Boasting a sense of grandeur, whispers of cool Mediterranean inspiration, flourishes of sculptured modernist flair, and etched with the unimpeachable credentials of Gmelli Design, the substantial residence appears to be a timeless private albeit lush oasis from the street. However looking from the pool with its backdrop of nearby Lake Weyba and sweeping views to Mt Coolum, the prized dress circle position teases with uber contemporary brilliance.
Admire the front gatehouse, travertine crazy paved garden with tropical magnolias and boxed hedges, elegant façade and tall arched entry into a soaring ever-so-high atrium, a flowing open plan layout with light-filled grand interiors, designed and dressed to impress.
Be instantly besotted by multiple living spaces on the ground floor including a dedicated dining room. Tactile milky-white micro-cement has been used extensively, similarly natural textured and raw elements such as reclaimed timber beams. There's a two-way eco fireplace and making statements all over the show stopper are seriously striking pendants in hand woven fibres of coconut shell, palms and leaves. And wherever you look, ravishing curvaceous lines are featured in custom joinery and echoed in furniture choices.
Thanks to disappearing banks of glass, natural light invites itself indoors to shadow dance over the endless oak floors. Meanwhile effortless elegance morphs alfresco to coalesce with the terrace. Custom 'floating' sun lounges and elevated gardens accent the lengthy iridescent pool and walkway across to the eucalypt-fringed lawn.
Entertaining options are obviously numerous and with such a well-designed deluxe custom kitchen, culinary aficionados will be in their element. Framed by custom louvred doors and natural textures including custom micro-cement topped Tasmanian oak cabinetry, pendant-adorned island breakfast plus separate coffee bar. The splashback features handcrafted mosaic tiles and there's a veritable array of the latest appliances such as a Ilve oven and six-hob gas cooktop. Outdoors is a barbeque and bar fridge.
When it comes to slumber zones albeit understated opulent sanctuaries, there are four bedrooms which are a nod to the location and lifestyle.
Upstairs are two premier suite retreats with terrace access and views across Lake Weyba. Both have fashionista-style walk-in robes and spa-inspired ensuites with limestone/pebble flooring, stone and rough marble-topped cabinetry and the larger has a bath tub. Between the two is the piece de resistance of cinema magic - a dedicated media room 'hidden' behind 100-year-old wooden doors, with an oversized daybed and north-facing undercover terrace.
Downstairs are two bedrooms with custom desks and robes. The central sizeable ensuite has a bathtub plus styling and features similar to upstairs. The bonus is a sauna with adjacent powder-style room. Also nearby is a laundry room with pale terracotta kitkat tiles creatively left ungrouted.
The crowning glory of the sparkling reimagined residence is undoubtedly Kristy Giumelli's inviting design and pedigree reflecting her vision for creating timeless homes that blend form, function and soul with indisputable uber sophistication and luxury on tap.
"Indulge in the epitome of a truly breathtaking residence, on par with excellence, boldly staking its claim on an unparalleled 868m2 site," comments Tom Offermann Real Estate marketing agent Erica Newton. "It is surrounded by tranquility and located a mere 60 seconds to the 2nd fairway of world class Noosa Springs Golf and Spa Resort. Sounds like a double eagle.
"The Graham Papworth-designed 5-star championship course has pockets of rainforest, is surrounded by Lake Weyba, the spring-fed lakes of Noosa Springs as well as the Noosa National Park with its abundance of flora and fauna including koalas and kangaroos.
"This IS luxury redefined on the edge of Lake Weyba in Noosa Heads' most exclusive gated estate."
