This has to be one of the nicest houses I have ever listed. The work and love put into this property can be seen in the photos. It currently has 5 doctors from overseas living there in 4 onsuited rooms and a self contained unit down stairs. It has an income of $66,000 a year.
The possibilities are endless for this property. Could be a large family home or you could keep the self contained unit vacant and have an income producing holiday home. I have aked the vendor to describe the property.
VENDORS STORY
The Dome House is the culmination of a 10 year dream that started in
Hawaii in 1994. It was there at The Business School for Entrepreneurs,
that I was first introduced to the work of R. Buckminster Fuller, a famous
American philosopher, inventor, designer and architect.
The Geodesic Dome was his most famous invention. It was the lightness,
strength, beauty and energy efficiency of the domes, which first inspired
me to build one.
We had a vision to build a sustainable home that combines the strength and
beauty of a geodesic dome, with the elegance, style and character of an
old Queenslander. A place where sustainability meets luxury and comfort.
In conjunction with our amazing builder Tony Hill, we designed the house and got all the approvals from council and engineers. I then worked side by side with Tony for the 8 months it took to build our home, with help from my father and Diann’s father who was also a timber craftsman.
The Dome House has won two awards for Excellence in Energy Aware Housing from the Queensland Master Builders Association and also won the Ecologically Sustainable Building award from the Sunshine Coast Environment Council. It has been constructed from sustainably grown local hardwoods from my family’s own sawmill in Beaudesert, QLD. We have used Natural Citrus based Oils which smell fantastic to preserve all the timber throughout the interior of the house.
There is so much of me in our house it will be a very sad day when we sell it, but we have moved on and now I need to build a new home for my family. I just trust that whoever buys it will love it as much as we do!
The Dome House (as it has been internationally known) has 4 luxurious en-suited rooms, a private study, a huge loft, massive indoor/outdoor entertaining areas, and a fully self contained managers unit. In addition to all of this, there is a great yard area and a sparkling pool.
