52 Driftwood Dr, Castaways Beach is a 5 bedroom, 3 bathroom House with 2 parking spaces and was built in 1998. The property has a land size of 809m2 and floor size of 278m2. While the property is not currently for sale or for rent, it was last sold in January 2010.
When it comes to wonderful surprises, it is not all about surf breaks at dog-friendly Castaways Beach and being a mere 5-minute walk to toes-in-the-white sand. It's also appreciating the specially designed family residence has a rooftop terrace, vignettes stretching 360 over the Coral Sea and beaches to Point Cartwright, and beyond to verdant nature reserves and brilliant sunsets.
Surrounded by lush sub-tropical plantings, the sassy design aesthetic begins at the front door. Look at the amazing dominant feature of a central curved glass-sided atrium with greenery, and how abundant natural light over three levels, moves across the entry way.
Whispers of the Mediterranean come to mind, especially with the interplay of terracotta tiles, ceiling height windows and classic hand-forged black iron balustrading.
Whether keen entertainers, beach lovers or being totally family focused, the multiple living areas, both indoors and out, facilitate a plethora of gathering spots.
Upstairs is all about laid-back open plan living and dining, a kitchen - the central hub is commensurate in size and has all the bells and whistles for those with a penchant for entertaining indoors or out on the undercover terrace. Check out those extraordinary views stretching from a nature reserve, across the turquoise Coral Sea and along the beaches south to Point Cartwright.
But wait there's more. Take the few steps to the rooftop terrace and be in awe of 360 views which could include migratory whales breaching, white-tipped waves, sail boats and cruise ships on the horizon, and let's not forget to also enjoy sundowners as the sun disappears behind Mt Coolum.
Whatever the reason or the season there is a perfect space with an ocean or verdant outlook even a quiet spot under the palms.
On the lower-level is a living area with an undercover terrace, shimmering pool and sundeck. There's also a handy kitchenette, powder room and bedroom with walk-in robe and ensuite.
There are four additional bedrooms all on the mid-level. The main has a walk-in robe, built in robe and an ensuite; one has access to an undercover terrace; the pastel blue and white tiled bathroom has a bathtub; and a separate powder room adjoins.
"Surrounded by pristine beaches, nature reserves and national parks, this is the quintessential coastal-style family home or investment property that embodies clever design and practicality," comment Tom Offermann Real Estate agents Michael McComas and Rebeckah Offermann.
"Whether keen entertainers, beach lovers, surfers, walkers, cyclists, family and business focused, or all the aforementioned, the multiple living areas, both indoors and out, keep on giving whilst facilitating a multiplicity of ideas including relaxation.
