As extraordinary as any site around our coastline, it's hard to comprehend that 'Laguna' even exists. The ultimate alternative to an island with unparalleled private beach frontage of half a kilometre, unique along the east coast of Australia. While the 31 hectare (77 acre) property gives the crucial element of seclusion, you are far from isolated with the beach side town of Noosa just a short drive away. Surrounded by Nature Reserves and National Park, amongst vast tracts of coastal heath, pockets of Eucalypt and Melaleuca forests, and fresh water lagoons has at its centre an uprising of basalt which soars 34m above the sea and surrounding lands, forming a grassy knoll dotted with trees offering uninterrupted views and capturing the cooling coastal breezes; a landmark of local significance and historical value and the foundation for a home like no other.

Built on the highest point on the Noosa North Shore at 34m of elevation, the contemporary home takes advantage of mesmerizing uninterrupted views from as far north as Double Island Point, across Laguna Bay to Noosa National Park and around to the vibrant Hasting's Street precinct and Main Beach. Careful consideration and design ensures that the substantial residence integrates seamlessly with its surroundings, this has been done to such a significant standard that even many long term Noosa locals are unaware it exists. The home has been built to the highest standards offering the ultimate resistance to the coastal environment with materials that are rarely used in residential construction but often specified in coastal high-rise construction. It is orientated to take advantage of the cooling north easterly sea breezes that prevail in the summer months, yet protected by the national park and tree canopy from the unwelcome south-easterly in winter.

Laguna bay is a sheltered haven for dolphins and a favourite resting spot for migrating humpbacks which you can watch from the house, while the lawns play host to resident kangaroos.
Surrounding bushland creates a haven for wildlife and requires little maintenance, large grassed expanses tucked behind the dunes provide ample space for hosting events of any nature and scale.
