Stunning hinterland retreat

Pavilion-style home on 17ha has options to expand B&B operations

A TRUE resort-style property - this magnificent architecturally designed clustered pavilion residence was designed and built by The Artisan Group and is available for the very first time to a buyer with exceptional taste and discrimination.

Perfectly north-east facing and elevated 84 metres above sea level, the residence has been fastidiously maintained and operated as a luxury council approved hinterland B&B since 2010.

Alaya Verde is set on 42 acres of hinterland forest and literally right on the edge of Tewantin, Noosa and all of Sunshine Coast's beautiful beaches and restaurants.

Choices abound for the savvy purchaser. You could continue running the property as an income producing business, whilst living the dream in this superb hinterland designer retreat. Or simply enjoy the high life in a home that would cater to the needs of either an executive couple or growing family.

Three enormous and perfectly private, ensuited bedrooms wrapped by concertina glazing for complete indoor/outdoor that border an 18m saltwater lap pool with many water features, timber boardwalks, stepping stones and reticulated ponds - meandering and linking the pavilion bedrooms, children's play area, three-car garage and utility spaces to a centrally located hub that is the heartbeat of the house.

This central pavilion boasts an enormous chef's kitchen featuring a magnificent island bar of exquisite marble and Caesar stone at one end - with a huge living and relaxation space featuring a cosy wood fire, all overlooking the five star resort style pool, with coastal and ocean views beyond.

The gold room king bedroom suite features pull-back shower doors with outdoor spa bath in a private courtyard, double vanities, large walk-in robe opening on to a out-sized private terrace with lake and national park glimpses.

The blue room king suite boasts a similar standard to the gold room but with private access to lap pool. The outsized terrace provides ocean glimpses.

Finally the green room queen suite features butted-glass windows, built in robes, deluxe ensuite and overlooks the tranquil ponds, orchid and palm garden with views through the main living area to the distant high dunes at Cooloola National Park.

Beyond the main residence you will find The Studio - a 10m by 13m Gabrielle Poole designed artists/yoga studio with mezzanine and large open plan floor space. This studio also contains two separate living spaces. Near the studio is a remarkable studio outbuilding containing a screened 30sq m indoor/outdoor kitchen with two showers and two vanities.

Finally you come upon the delightful cottage a 7m by 3.5m workers cottage set in bushland surroundings with outdoor platform bath and shower.

Nestled among secluded native subtropical forest and gardens are walking tracks designed for the contemplation of nature.

Kangaroos frolic on the rolling fields within this private and peaceful setting. Imagine breakfasting in the gazebo beside the pool then taking a relaxing spa in the outdoor bath, followed by a walk in the ancient forest as you commune with nature, Noosa style.

Should you wish to build the commercial potential of this property many additional improvements are in the pipeline including approved development plans for Visitor Accommodation Type 1 (Home Hosted).

There is also further planning under way to incorporate Type 3 Rural accommodation with an additional four cabins.

There is new underground power while town planning and site survey work is among the critical business development investments already completed.
