In an ever more frantic world, have you ever wished you could live in a location where you have the best of both worlds – a true nature sanctuary where you can escape the hustle and bustle but still be in close proximity to everything Noosa has to offer, so you can have it all?

Set on just over two hectares this residence delivers privacy, almost a "secret hideaway". Architecturally designed, North facing with your very own lake filled with fish, turtles plus a plethora of birdlife and the odd kangaroo and koala. With a native woodland backdrop, each day nature puts on quite a show.

This home is an exercise in visual simplicity, but is carefully considered with outstanding eco credentials. An industrial look facilitated by judicious use of concrete, colour bond, glass and exposed steel, which adds a warmth with its rust-coloured accents.

Ascend the stairs to the central indoor/outdoor alfresco area. Hardwood floors and retractable screens create a central breezeway between the main pavilion containing the open plan kitchen/living/dining plus master retreat. An additional second pavilion contains two ensuited bedrooms – the separation and privacy is impressive.

The North-facing open plan living area features a palette of grey, concrete look tiles, white walls and expansive windows which frame the panorama of your own lake and the native woodland beyond.

The kitchen overdelivers. Continuing the grey and white colour theme, stainless steel benchtops with designer white soft closing cabinetry, two integrated Asko dishwashers, 900 mm Ilve oven and 900mm Ilve induction stovetop with oodles of bench space, generous pantry and moulded double sinks at either end of the kitchen and Italian chrome tapware, all combine to produce a very functional kitchen.

Back in the breezeway, a built-in hooded barbecue enables you to kick back and relax, a commercial grade extraction system keeping all evidence of your labours concealed.

Enroute to the master retreat you pass the office/study, which houses two computer desk slots – an ideal work from home space. The laundry is also conveniently located adjacent the master with ample bench space and nearby linen cupboard. Both spaces with green tree outlooks.

The Master features seamless built in robes with internal lighting, an expansive ensuite with floor to ceiling tiles, invisible drainage in the rain shower and forest bathing from the strategically placed freestanding bath, allowing you to soak and take in the wonders of nature. Alternately, kick back on the bed and drink in the verdant surrounds in air-conditioned comfort.

Returning to the opposite side of the central indoor/outdoor alfresco the two bedrooms are both ensuited, with well-placed louvres providing air flow, and feature built in robes. For additional comfort both are fitted with split system air conditioning with full length mirrors in both rooms with stunning outlooks.

Downstairs is the main entry and double garage, all controlled by remote. There are several zip blinds which enable undercover seating and entertaining areas to be set up for privacy – adjacent to the above ground deep mineral pool and lawn which spills to the lake.
