259 Duke Road, Doonan QLD 4562

Fantasise about a city person's version of country, supremely comfortable with a sprinkling of glamour, aka where urban chic meets Nature's best? Revel in the hillside sculpted by verdant offerings and a driveway wreathed by lush botanical gardens with lawn embellishments, before attention is diverted to an impressive avant-garde silhouette, almost a distraction from the wondrous surrounds.

The architecturally designed residence is fashioned throughout with mid-century modern design responses, flows effortlessly, is a nod to art deco and, much like a gallery filled with art, stories and bonhomie.
Admire lofty ceilings and prodigious disappearing walls of glass which open from most rooms to the expansive terrace, whilst inviting natural light to shadow-dance over the spotted gum flooring, especially in the living and dining space.

Adjoining via glass slide-aways is an undercover terrace creating an 'outdoor room' feel, and a deco-inspired circular sky roof open to the stars, adding a clever design statement to the terrace and luminescent horizon pool. Why not dive in and cool off between courses, and don't be surprised if the friendly water dragons drop by for lunch too!
There's also a glass wall to a sitting room where the vibe is refined yet relaxed with a playful mix of old and new, such as a wall of custom cabinetry for books and artefacts.

An undeniable sense of pure indulgence pervades the fresh air, especially in the kitchen, designed for entertaining aficionados. A long stone-topped island, an L-shaped stainless-steel bench top with marble splashback, Asko dishwasher, two Wolf ovens plus a gas cooktop are just the beginning of this culinary love affair. Then there's the scullery with 4-metre timber-topped cabinetry, a picture window to the view, a wall side bench with mirror splashback plus a dishwasher, fridge and a walk-in cool room. It has the facility to hang meat and cool 48 bottles of wine. And let's not forget the wine cellar with custom timber cabinetry including bench space to prepare drinks.

Fall asleep to the sound of frogs and wake to the chortling of birds and the view from the three carpeted bedrooms. The premier suite retreat has a custom headboard, bookcase, generous walk-in robe and ensuite featuring white stone-topped single-basin white cabinetry. Two in the northwest wing have a bathroom with pastel mushroom-toned tiles, white stone-topped single-basin cabinetry, and who doesn't love a bathtub?
Additional spaces include an office with custom fit-out, a laundry and a powder room.

There is a quiet magic to life here, one that reveals itself gently, with the rhythm of Nature taking most credit. Hugging the home in every direction are layers of greenery and gardens that come alive with movement, colour and character. From the melodic butcherbirds and kookaburras, magpies, swallows, honeyeaters enjoying the grevilleas, brilliantly coloured rosellas, lorikeets, black cockatoos and white, pretty-faced wallabies and more, the surroundings undoubtedly offer sophistication and sanctuary in equal measure.

This is more than a home, it is an experience – one that invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and truly belong. "This stunner of a residence is packed with vivacious personality and designed with flair," comment Tom Offermann Real Estate agents Eliza Coppin, "and it truly is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to live your dream.

"The sensitively crafted property blends perfectly into the natural terrain, yet it is a place in which, somewhere between the sea spray of Noosa Main Beach 12 minutes away, and the almost lost-world tradition of a safe, secure, unrivalled lifestyle, it's possible to lose yourself completely."
