8 Stevens Street

Sunshine Beach QLD 4567

Optimising the perfect northerly aspect and taking sunny centre stage is an extraordinary courtyard, open to the sky. The polished concrete from indoors blends with granite coping around the pearlescent-shimmering heated pool, the timber decking of the gazebo as well as the massive cement pots housing mature frangipanis.

Continuing the sense of drama in the variation of spaces is a lavish dining plus living area with custom-built aged oak-hued cabinetry. Once again, the residence keeps on giving, this time with an almost seamless connection to an east-facing terrace. It is surrounded by high troughs of herbaceous plants, an integrated barbeque, and the piece de resistance Coral Sea views with the added condiments of salty breezes and the sound of waves breaking onshore.

Naturally, edgy design functionality continues in the kitchen with a walk-in pantry, the very latest in high-end appliances, plus formed concrete counter tops including the long, wide island bench/breakfast bar with bespoke Normann Copenhagen ceramic pendants.

Also on the entry level is the major master bedroom. It opens out to gardens on the western side, has floor-to-ceiling sheer window treatments, a walk-through fashionista-style robe and an impressive ensuite bathroom with mirrored wall, long vanity unit and a composite stone free-standing bathtub.

Upstairs the U-shaped balcony looks over the entire courtyard and pool.

In the east wing with beautiful sea views from the balcony which extends the width of the residence, is another major bedroom which the owners call their "winter room". It has similar features to the 'other' such as the stone bathtub.

Sharing the balcony is a retreat-style space currently used for yoga.

In the west wing are two bedrooms. Both share a balcony; one also shares a balcony on the eastern side; and both have walk-in robes and ensuite bathrooms.

What a wonderful surprise awaits downstairs. A gymnasium which could also be a guest suite/office/study because of an adjoining luxury bathroom, has a garden outlook. Along the hallway is access to the double garage as well as the laundry room which has heaps of storage also a door to the drying area and garden.

Off the hallway on the western side is a mega media room, a purpose-built wine wall which could be closed in for a cellar, next to the lift is provision for a sauna, while near the staircase is a door to the single garage and storage area.

As you navigate through the residence, volumes expand and compress both horizontally and vertically, creating joyful moments in everyday life."Sand between the toes is 2-minutes away or equivalent to one house block back from the beachfront," extols Tom Offermann Real Estate agent Peter Te Whata. "There's simply nothing like living the good life in Sunshine Beach, officially recognized recently as the second most popular suburb in Australia.

"Enjoy the amenable sub-tropical climate, also anonymity at the beach or nearby vibrant Sunshine Beach village, with its award-winning eateries, and where the local caf society preserve the 'barefoot if you like' attitude."
