“Perched high on the north facing ridge of a 9 hectare (23acre) former grazing property this unique rural getaway has stunning views of iconic Mt Cooroora, Mt Pinbarren and across to the Great Sandy National Park. Designed by renowned Sunshine Coast architect Gabriel Poole, the house takes full advantage of the energy efficiencies and sustainability features that are part of the design from his “Small House Series”. A wood fired heater keeps the house warm and inviting through winter. The unique bathroom has floor to ceiling windows giving you the feeling of showering amongst the trees. A spacious outdoor entertaining deck is covered and nearby a relaxing outdoor tub lets you take in panoramic the views of the Noosa hinterland while enjoying the sunset and a cool drink. The wood fired pizza oven courtyard creates the perfect outdoor kitchen and there’s no shortage of firewood on the property. Total privacy, yet only 6 minutes from bustling hinterland town of Cooroy and just 25 minutes to Noosa beaches. The undulating land is a complementary mix of remnant forest and open pasture. Nearly 500 trees have been planted on the block over the last 5 years. There are working cattle yards, 2 dams and watering facilities.
