Sitting just one street back from the ocean, this chic Sunshine Beach apartment sets the scene for the holiday of a lifetime, where moments of wonder and delight can transform into forever memories. Part of a small complex of just two, the two-bedroom property has been artfully styled to best capture and enhance its surrounds. This plays out through both its interior design and in its seamless meld of inviting indoor and outdoor spaces.
Built across two levels, the retreat thoughtfully positions its bedrooms apart to create welcome opportunities to retreat or find moments of alone time. Adding to this soothing air, their design palette is anchored by crisp white, vibrantly enlivened by bold pops of red. This clever use of colour for ambience continues through the entire floor plan, with shades ranging from blue and mustard to lush green enhancing soothing neutrals that make a feature of tone and texture.
As befits its location, the apartment’s central living zone is upstairs, where appealing design choices allow separate spaces for varied ages. A stepped-up lounge zone positioned at the back is comfortably furnished and equipped as an ideal entertainment zone for children and younger guests. From here, steps lead down to an open-plan space, kitted out in rich timber flooring. This encompasses a well-equipped kitchen complete with spacious island bench seating for casual eating and a lounge area oriented to take in the dazzling blue of ocean views framed by banks of glass. An even better perspective is on offer on the covered alfresco terrace, where a table, chairs and barbecue can turn an enticing ocean outlook into dinner and a spectacular show spotlighting Mother Nature. Internal stairs further lead up to a rooftop deck, the ideal spot for a morning coffee or evening nightcap.
Rare in its amenity, the apartment offers a private plunge pool surrounded by lush plantings and sunloungers shaded by an umbrella. Yet with the tang of salty air on the breeze, the lure of the nearby ocean is almost impossible to resist.
The beach that gives the suburb its name includes a patrolled area and sensational expanses of golden sand, while a surf break is a boon for visitors who travel with a board. Bush lovers don’t miss out, either, with Noosa National Park close at hand, teeming with flora and fauna of all kinds.
Also within a short walk are a surf club and the cafes, restaurants and retailers of Sunshine Beach Village while other tourist hot spots, including Hastings St and Noosa Main Beach, are but a short trip in the car.
With so much to see and do, half the joy of your visit will lie in planning each day’s adventures. Which is exactly how holiday moments become memories to treasure.
