Classic Old Beach Hideaway In Sunrise Beach

Palm Cottage an avant-garde, one of a kind home with its own special blend of eccentricity and Noosa history.
A configuration of three structures well hidden from the street, it's inviting, quirky, tactile and replete with meaningful installations and sculptures.

Using a melange of sustainable materials, up-cycled second hand and custom-made goods, the home grew, spreading out and around in a succession of spaces linked by sun decks and pathways under a canopy of palms, a veritable cornucopia of fruit trees Poinciana and Mango trees.

The main home is a mix of rendered brick and hardwood timbers. Tongue and groove interior walls are almost 2cm thick, timber floors of mixed hardwood and ceilings reach almost 5.5metres. The fireplace in the dining area was built with hand-picked bricks that formed the original kiln of the Cooroy Brickworks. The Red Cedar bannister on the flight of stairs leading to upper bedrooms has a glass orb in the form of a globe engraved with the world's continents.

An expansive deck links a two-level structure adjacent to the main building creating pleasing views for the rooms that wrap around the deck and a massive indoor-outdoor connection for the kitchen, living room and master bedroom.

This two-level structure complete with "turret", now the master bedroom, was originally created as a meditative space for painting and sculpting and the "turret" for yoga and checking out the surf. Windows in this building were salvaged from the fire at Jim Sherwood's store in Hastings Street years ago.

From the studio at the rear of the property, you can see the sun rise over the ocean, watch it set over the hinterland, hear the sound of the surf, feel the sea breeze and trace its path moving through the bushland.
Set behind a pair of tall, handmade doors and masonry walls, the studio has a peacefulness of place that's ideal for creation and production.

Although somewhat rudimentary, it is not without its little luxuries: a slow-burning open fireplace, a kitchenette/wet bar, high ceilings with exposed beams, a small covered patio looking over Burgess Creek Reserve to the national park and a courtyard that's home to "Pen" the Blue Ring Octopus fountain.

The position of Palm Cottage is perfect and perfectly private.
Open any window or door and the leafy gardens with their mix of heady aromatic herbs, fruit trees, Jacarandas, ornamentals, palms and evergreens are only metres away.
The ocean is just 7-8-minutes' walk along a sandy track to the pet-friendly beach and kilometres of golden sand.

Schools, shops and medical facilities are a few minutes' drive or 20-25-minute walk at most. Noosa's Aquatic and Tennis Centres are 2.3km from the gate.
Public transport (free at peak holiday times) is just a few doors away.

Other features:
Constructed 40 years ago.
New stove & fans installed 2020.
8 top of the range solar panels, photoelectric smoke alarms.
Gas HWS.
Yellow bats in bedroom ceilings of the main house.
5000-litre rainwater tank ensures the gardens remain lush all year.
Potential to enjoy bigger ocean views if rebuilt.
Apart from being private and unique another twist to the tale is the potential to increase the size of the site by applying to the Department of Natural Mines and Resources for land on the western side of the current property line.

Palm Cottage is not for everyone. However, if you have been looking for a home with personality plus, Palm Cottage is certainly one to put at the top of your must-see list.
