It’s all we’ve heard in the tabloids of late: sub-prime this, recession that. It’s hard to know what to believe, and without a crystal ball and some hefty economic know-how the whole global crisis thing is a little ambiguous to say the least. This week, MPR has broken it all down into laymen’s terms in the first of a two-part series. Our cover story explains exactly what is happening offshore and what it means to us here in Australia, and more importantly, here on the Sunshine Coast. It reveals the real difference between our market and that of the US and UK, so you can be better informed to make your own decisions on the state of our market both locally and nationally. We also talk to some industry professionals to get some expert advice on property hot spots for 2009. If you listen to what most industry experts are saying, now is the time to buy, so jump into this issue and prepare for the exciting months ahead.

and financial sectors are linked. US Congress has a history of interfering in housing markets, but during the recent troubles, unlike Australia, it failed to provide adequate financial controls and regulation at retail level. This happened in the savings and loans crisis of the late 1980s and has now been repeated on a larger scale in the sub-prime fiasco. It affected confidence in all markets and can be traced directly to a ballooning of debt levels and lax controls on lending to high-risk people. These bad practices started 10 years ago when Congress encouraged pseudo-mortgage guarantor companies to pump out money to house the poor. Unfortunately, the poor couldn’t pay. In Australia, our controls are much tighter. Our Reserve Bank does not always get it right, but it is one of numerous federal bodies that effectively prevent dubious deals or companies.

cover story BANKING SYSTEMS WHAT HAS HAPPENED? The availability of credit and access to flexible and cost-effective mortgage finance is a key driver of people’s ability to buy homes. In Australia we have four very strong big banks and you can still get 95 per cent loans if you’re a good quality borrower. Our credit remains freely available. Overseas they have severe credit rationing. It’s hard to get housing finance, which has severely reduced demand for housing and impacted prices. WHAT’S NEXT? Australia’s Reserve Bank agrees with most analysts that we’re unlikely to see severe credit restrictions on mortgage finance here. Low-doc and 100 per cent loans are now much harder to get, but for the vast majority of borrowers, cheap credit is available. MORTGAGE RATES WHAT HAS HAPPENED? In Australia, 85 per cent of all borrowers are on variable rate mortgages. In the US, most borrowers are on fixed rates and in the UK it’s about half. That means when central banks in America and Britain reduce their interest rates, the benefits don’t flow through to their borrowers for years. In Australia, it means 85 per cent of borrowers get immediate relief. WHAT’S NEXT? The Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) can quickly and effectively support our housing market. Markets predict interest rates will be less than five per cent by mid-2009. SUB-PRIME LOANS WHAT HAS HAPPENED? A sub-prime loan is extended to a borrower who has a high risk of default. Australia does not have much of a sub-prime market. In the US, between 13 and 15 per cent of all home loans are sub-prime. In Australia, it’s less than one per cent. Importantly, default rates in Australia for

both normal and riskier home loans are a fraction of default rates in the US and the UK. Only about 0.4 per cent of all Australian borrowers are in ‘90 days or more default’. In the US, it’s more than 2.5 per cent and in the UK it’s 1.3 per cent. And that’s despite the fact our mortgage rates have been higher, reaching 9.6 per cent in August. SUPPLY AND DEMAND WHAT HAS HAPPENED? Australia has high demand for housing stock but it is undersupplied. The US had a lot of excess building while Australia has huge housing shortages. Yet our households are in much stronger positions than those in the US and UK. Despite claims that household debt levels have increased radically here, remember that mortgage rates in January 1990 were 17 per cent and even the recent peak was under 10 per cent. Today, mortgage rates are only about 6.7 per cent because the RBA has reduced its cash rate by three per cent in recent months. WHAT’S NEXT? Australia can support higher levels of debt, given our lower levels of interest. Federal Treasury believes we need to produce more than 190,000 homes a year. We’re now doing 145,000 a year. Demand exceeding supply is a key to price rises. HOUSE PRICES WHAT HAS HAPPENED? House prices here have proved remarkably resilient. In the UK prices plummeted by eight per cent and in the US by 17 per cent. In Australia they have remained largely unchanged, down about one per cent in the 10 months to the end of October. In Brisbane it was 1.7 per cent. Latest evidence suggests that house prices actually rose slightly in the three months ending November. The reason we

shuddered to a halt in 2008, compared with the strong price rises in 2007, including 20 per cent in Queensland, was because borrowers were slugged with the equivalent of five rate rises – three official through the RBA and two through the banks. WHAT’S NEXT? With mortgage costs in Australia falling by 30 per cent, a big improvement in affordability will continue in 2009. Falling rates and relatively static house prices mean more volume, which we’ve already seen in October and November. Many forecasters believe Australian house prices will rise in the medium term because of excess demand. ECONOMIC STRENGTH WHAT HAS HAPPENED? Banks collapsed left, right and centre in the UK and US. In Australia, we have had no bank bailouts or nationalisations. The US and UK are in recession, whereas Australia’s economic prospects are much stronger. The US government has massive debt, whereas our Federal Government has very little debt. That means we can inject additional cash into the economy to support households. We’ve already seen the doubling and tripling of the First Home Owner Grant as part of $10.4 billion worth of financial spending. This has proven powerful, with the percentage of people getting first-home loans almost doubling to 22 per cent, according to latest data from mortgage broker AFG. WHAT’S NEXT? There’s a risk Australia may have a mild recession, but most economists agree we’re in a vastly superior position to the UK and US. First-home buyers will continue to storm the market. The RBA believes the Australian housing market is leading the US by three years. Since our downturn started in 2004 and the US in 2007, we’re likely to see quicker recovery over the next few years.

suburb

Bli Bli

L A

ocation: Peaceful little Bli Bli, situated west of Mudjimba, is approximately 33 square kilometres with seven parks covering nearly two per cent of the total land area. This rural village is located between the Sunshine Motorway and the Bruce Highway.

royal tradition: The suburb of Bli Bli is best known as the home of the Sunshine Castle. Its towers and battlements offer panoramic views along the Coast, over Bli Bli, the Maroochy River area

and the surrounding cane fields. The Norman-style castle, with medieval additions complete with moat, turrets, towers and a drawbridge, has been a drawcard for the area for 35 years.

y the banks of the river: Leafy Bli Bli is positioned by the Maroochy River, and is just minutes from nearby beaches. There are plenty of options on the river for locals looking for a little adventure, with a number of barbecue facilities and parks also located by the water. Due to its waterfront location, you’ll find plenty of fishermen,

boaties and waterskiers in Bli Bli. The suburb is also home to the recreational fishing venue, Suncoast Barra Fishing Park and is also home to one of only a few of Australia’s cable ski parks, Cable Ski World.

W F

hat’s in a name: The name Bli Bli came from ‘billai billai’, the Aboriginal term for swamp oak.

arming: In 1903 a significant portion of the Bli Bli area was under cultivation with corn, potatoes, oranges, pawpaw and other farm

F amily friendly:

fruit and vegetables cultivated. Extension of the tramway system in 1936 through Bli Bli ensured that sugar cane became the staple agricultural crop in the area.

diet of oysters: The large number and size of Aboriginal middens downstream from Bli Bli’s Meuller Park tells us that oysters formed part of the local Aboriginal people’s staple diet before European settlement, and by 1881, oysters were being harvested commercially at Bli Bli.

This family-friendly suburb offers up a wide range of housing options, from fully fledged farms to rural acreage, suburban housing and estate living at Parklakes Estate. Households in Bli Bli are primarily couples with children, with the predominant children’s age group zero to nine years.

edian house price: The median house price for a home in Bli Bli is currently $453,500. Sources: www.myrp.com.au; www.sunshinecoast.qld.gov.au

The new Noosa by Dorothy Drane

Trying to predict which suburb will be the next Noosa is a popular Sunshine Coast pastime, but it has Dorothy Drane wondering, why the obsession with the home of Hastings Street? roperty and tourism pundits have regularly touted Cotton Tree as the next Noosa, a prediction based mainly on the shared and enviable geographic feature of being hemmed in by river and sea. While there is now no real comparison between King Street’s fish and chip shops and cafes and the upmarket establishments of the cuisine capital, it is nevertheless not an unreasonable proposition for the future. At the end of Hastings Street, the old Noosa Woods caravan park (which had cotton trees among its woods) would be jammed with budget holiday-makers every summer, just as the Cotton Tree Caravan park at the end of King Street still overflows with happy campers. Hopefully, in these socially enlightened times, anyone who doesn’t want to pay a squillion for accommodation won’t be told to push off from Cotton Tree – as they were in Noosa – where there are now plenty of beachfront apartments. But the big question is, of course, if anywhere really wants to be another Noosa

Heads. And just what is it that makes Noosa special enough to inspire emulation? It would have to be its natural assets rather than its man-made features, although they too reflect more careful consideration than some of their southern counterparts. Nevertheless, anyone can build a street of boutiques, five-star hotels, fine restaurants and an international reputation if they put their minds to it, but few can aspire to the incomparable natural assets with which Noosa has been blessed. Foremost are the acres of national park that permit rainforest to run down to the sea and the rocky crags of the bay. Laguna Bay’s north-facing aspect means the beach is largely protected, but surfers can swing around the point for the perfect wave. Because it’s a neck of land stretching between canal and sea, Hastings Street space is extremely limited, which puts it in a highly exclusive bracket. The high-rise restrictions haven’t done the ambience any harm either, so it comes together as a complete package that has

been cleverly marketed to retain a suggestion of the exotic. While all this might sound parochial with a hint of resort-envy, it is not intended to detract from the wonder that is Noosa, only to say that even though its name may be recognised internationally, it is really not so superior to its southern cousins. Mooloolaba has a fabulous esplanade of boutiques and fine restaurants, and a bay with a protected beach. Alex Headland has rocky crags dropping down to the sea and the aforementioned Cotton Tree also sits where the river meets the sea. Where Noosa came to prominence when it attracted surfboard riders from around the world in their Kombi vans in the late ’60s, Maroochydore became the home of the winter bowls carnivals and brought visitors from the south and New Zealand. Admittedly it’s quite a different clientele, but just because the old bowlers aren’t always talking to glossy magazines about how they discovered the place before choosing it as their preferred retirement

option in the ’80s and ’90s, doesn’t mean they aren’t a significant migration segment. They have injected millions into the local economy, renting apartments for months at a time during the normally quiet winter accommodation period and then coming back to buy. Access to Cotton Tree’s Esplanade and the beachfront to the end of the Mooloolaba Spit is easy, with plenty of parking available (provided, of course, Queensland Transport doesn’t have its way with its ridiculous plan for bus lanes). It’s all horses for courses of course, and proves yet again that the Coast is blessed with choices, whether it’s a Hollywood celebrity looking for five-star luxury, a Gippsland pensioner content in a self-contained apartment or a Toowoomba family with a tent.

Making the most of

the great outdoors It is quintessentially ‘Queensland’ to enjoy the outdoors and the Sunshine Coast is no exception. From grand entertaining areas to pools and expansive decks, here are 10 ways to improve the outdoor living areas in your home.

Hide and seek

Get gardening

Take a good look at your outdoor living area. What easy changes can you make to improve the overall look of the space? What should be on display and what should be hidden from view? Do you have an ugly water heater, shed or bin in plain sight? It’s simple – move it, throw it out or cover it up! Consider using screens – fences, trellises or vegetation such as vines or hedges – to keep the eyesores out of view.

Even if you don’t have the greenest of thumbs, some simple gardening may be all you need to revitalise your outdoor area. Dig up the weeds (first work out what’s a weed and what’s a plant), tidy your garden beds, replace the dying plants with fresh, new, seasonal options, mow the lawn and remove decaying trees. You’re now on your way to an appealing outdoor area.

Pool pamper

Professional help If your yard or entertaining area is in need of a more desperate makeover, it could be time to call in the professional landscapers for some serious cosmetic surgery. Landscapers can advise you about the best plants for your yard and will often think outside the square when designing your new outdoor space. Odds are you won’t recognise your old garden after the makeover.

What better place to spend summer than in your pool? Give it a good clean if it’s looking a bit grubby. Tidy up the surrounding space and consider putting in new decking or paving if the pool area is looking dated or tired. Replace old old, and potentially unsafe, fencing. Your pool p may be just a pamper away from perfec perfection.

Come on in

Anyone for pizza?

Accessorise

One easy way to make your home seem larger is to bring the inside out and the outside in by replacing the doors between the house and the deck/courtyard or balcony. Bi-fold doors are a popular option as they enable you to open this space up by folding the doors completely back and out of the way, instantly combining the indoors with the outdoors and creating an open-plan feel.

The most popular outdoor ‘toy’ of choice is the wood-fired pizza oven, with an increasing number of Coast locals investing in this entertainer’s delight. Not only is it an easy way to keep the guests fed and entertained (especially if they have to make their own pizzas), but it’s a great talking point and an appealing addition to any outdoor area.

Looking for those extra bits and pieces to spruce up your garden? Consider accessorising. A new outdoor setting, day bed or barbecue can add new life to your outdoor area. Consider adding a bird bath, water feature or statue to your garden to create a new look.

Deck the floors

Turf time

Cover up

A new deck can transform your outdoor area and give you much more useable space. Timber decking is perfect for areas that are used as extensions of your indoor spaces, especially for entertaining. A timber deck placed just outside an internal living area makes a seamless transition from the indoor space to the outdoors.

There’s nothing more impressive than a lush, green lawn. If your lawn is not looking its best and seems to be dying a slow and painful death, it may be time to turf. A new lawn will instantly refresh and revitalise your yard.

Don’t underestimate the importance of covering up in summer, and this also means protecting yourself and your guests from the elements. If adding a roof or gazebo to your outdoor area isn’t an option, consider a shade sail or giant market umbrella, a cost-effective and attractive alternative to solid roofing structures.

All-round family man

by Alli Grant

Cricketer Ashley Noffke has no plans to retire from the game that has given him so much, despite a passion for family, fishing and his growing property portfolio.

never home long enough to oversee the construction,” he says. “We love it where we are at the moment but we’ll build there one day. Living on a deepwater block is our dream.” It’s easy to see why he is in no rush to move. The Noffke home is located in a peaceful street, close to everything Pelican Waters has to offer. “We have always loved Caloundra,” Ashley says. “It’s so peaceful and quiet and of course, it has ocean access. There are so many protected beaches for the kids, too. We fell in love with this home because of the space – the yard is huge.

“

We considered moving to Brisbane but the appeal of the Sunshine Coast was too strong, especially with a young family

“

ueensland and Australian representative cricketer Ashley Noffke is a born-and-bred Sunshine Coaster. Despite a demanding career as an all-rounder for the Queensland Bulls, which requires the local to commute to Brisbane for training up to four days a week, Ashley prefers a slower paced life on the Coast. It’s a little ironic really, given the reputation Ashley has earned for his fast-medium bowling, which has seen him make numerous appearances on national teams and has also taken the all-rounder to England, India and beyond. When he’s not training, competing or travelling, this father-of-two enjoys nothing more than relaxing in his beautiful Pelican Waters home and focusing on his other passions – fishing, golf, property and his family. Ashley is a mad fisherman. His Seastorm 650 plate boat, parked proudly in his front yard, is testament to his passion. “When I was younger I was a river rat and I used to love getting out in my tinnie,” he says. “I’ve worked my way up from there and I think I’m on about my fifth boat now. I’ve had this one for about 18 months. It’s great living near deepwater access as when I get home from training I can throw the kids in the boat and head over to Bribie Island.” Life in Pelican Waters agrees with Ashley and his wife Michelle, four-year-old Breanna and two-year-old Will. Not only is their home close to ocean access, it’s also a stone’s throw from the Pelican Waters Golf Club where Ashley is an ambassador member. “As a sportsman, it’s good to play a sport without pressure, to play it for what it is, and that’s why I love golf,” he says. In addition to their four-bedroom (plus study) family home, the Noffkes own a sizeable block of waterfront land on the main canal at Pelican Waters, a site that will one day feature the family’s dream home. “We intend living there for a long time so we don’t want to rush into building and I’m

I hate being cramped in. I love having space around me and I wanted my kids to experience that too.” Ashley has been making the regular trip to Brisbane for training since 1997 and most weeks he makes the return trip four times. By his calculations, he travels almost 240 kilometres each day. “I often joke that the day I retire is bound to be the day they finally finish the road works at Caloundra,” Ashley muses. “It is a lot of driving, but I’ve been doing it for 10 years so I guess I’m used to it.” Surely the Noffkes considered the move south? “When we started talking about kids we did talk about where we wanted to live,” Ashley says. “We considered moving to Brisbane but the appeal of living on the Sunshine Coast was just too strong, especially with a young family. It’s such an easy, uncomplicated lifestyle. Both Will and Breanna have adopted the boating lifestyle – they love it.”

It’s not just cr ic

ket that moves

y and keen fish

erman

What does the future hold for this all-rounder? Does he see himself making that trek to Brisbane for years to come? “I don’t have any immediate plans to retire. I’m really looking forward to playing more Twenty20 cricket. It’s an exciting time for cricket as Twenty20 has introduced so many new people to the game. As a player, it’s a dream to play a game that so many people want to watch, a game that can now compete with the likes of rugby league.” Ashley adds that he is proud of the Queensland Bulls and what they have achieved this season. “We have shown that there’s a lot of passion, talent and spirit in the group.” When he’s not on the boat, on the course, on the pitch or in the car, Ashley can be found dabbling in the property market, something he is incredibly passionate about. This is clearly where his future lies – in property. In addition to starting a small portfolio, Ashley has also enrolled to study a masters of business in property. “My brother-in-law and I have started a property syndicate focused on commercial property,” he says. “We have purchased properties all over the place – Rosewood, Booval, Toowoomba and Springfield. Michelle’s dad has taught us so much about the market and it’s been such an enjoyable process so far. While the syndicate is trickling away on the side at the moment, we always have one eye on the future and development will be my focus when I retire. The idea of securing a passive income is so appealing.” It’s clear this star cricketer is an all-rounder not only on but off the field as well. My Property Review | January 9, 2009 37

I think any of the Sunshine Coast railway towns, such as Beerwah, Landsborough, Eudlo and Palmwoods, are the hot spots for 2009. Lots of people looking for a lifestyle change are purchasing on the Sunshine Coast, but are still going to commute to Brisbane several days a week. Nambour will continue to grow as well, because with interest rate drops, lower-end properties will still be in demand

â&#x20AC;&#x153;

Anything 200 metres oďŹ&#x20AC; the beach is always good real estate and property in the lower end of the market is too. Fuel prices will come back even harder in me so places that are convenient and close to transport will prove good over me. I think Caloundraâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s got a stability and a convenience to it that is only going to get be er over me

At the moment you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t really go wrong. I think anything on the eastern side of the Bruce Highway from Noosa to Caloundra is good real estate. If you look around at what youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re getting for your money, at the moment itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s exceptional.

Live where you work by Alli Grant

While many new residents to the Coast come here for the change of lifestyle, most still have to work. But there is a way to earn an income while making the most of the relaxed life – by taking on the management rights of a permanent or holiday complex.

Brian is quick to point out, though, that while running a residential complex isn’t as demanding as running holiday accommodation, it’s still a 24-hour-a-day job. Unfortunately, it also means they don’t make as much money as they would in a holiday complex arrangement, but they have a much more relaxed job and working environment. “The great thing is that we can go away for a day and don’t have to be tied to the office for check-ins,” Brian says. “It’s much more relaxed as we only have to focus on permanent residents and tenants and they seem to know what they want. We have to be on call all the time but we

“

The biggest cost associated with buying management rights such as the Peats is the purchase of an apartment in the complex, which is always part of the sale contract. “Normally managers are obliged to buy the worst unit in the complex but here there isn’t a bad unit – every one of them has water views, so we love living and working here,” Brian explains. “The lake is often filled with kayakers and rowers. We love sitting outside and watching them go by. Where else in the world could you find a place like this, where you can work and play?”

Permanent versus holiday complexes

If you don’t want to get up early you don’t have to. You avoid peak-hour traffic and you get to work outdoors

“

he number one drawcard to the Sunshine Coast has to be the lifestyle – who wouldn’t want to live a more relaxed life by the beach, away from peak-hour traffic, long boardroom meetings and pressured deadlines? Many of us came here because we needed a break from corporate life and, tiring of the big smoke, relocated in search of that mystical work-life balance. For the majority of us, the new life has come with a career change. For some, this career change means working where they live, surely the perfect balance of work and play. While more people are taking up the challenge of running a small business from home, this isn’t the only way you can have your cake and eat it too, as Brian and Marjorie Peat discovered when they left New Zealand in search of a happier and more balanced life. In 1999, Marjorie and Brian packed in their corporate careers in banking and moved to Australia. After several years managing properties in Coolum, Port Douglas and Beenleigh, the Peats stumbled across a development on Lake Kawana that took their fancy. “We hadn’t intended on buying something else as we had just sold our management rights to a residential village in Beenleigh. We just came up to have a look but we fell in love with the complex,” Marjorie says. In late October, Marjorie and Brian took up the management rights at Lake Kawana’s first residential development, Regatta Apartments on Innovation Parkway. While living and working on the same site isn’t everyone’s cup of tea, it works for the Peats, who love the flexibility of their new business venture. “At this stage in our lives we didn’t want to be dictated to by big corporations,” Brian says. “It’s great being our own bosses. If you don’t want to get up early you don’t have to. You avoid peak-hour traffic and you get to work outdoors.”

did make certain that we wouldn’t have set business hours. Residents can reach us whenever they need us and we are never too far away and that’s what matters.” Surely there’s a downside to living where you work? “There are downsides to every job,” he says. “Even in a new complex, things still break down and need to be fixed. There’s the rubbish to contend with – lots of rubbish. And there’s the gardening. But it’s a great life. Even though you have to be available 24 hours a day, sometimes you’ll get a block of three hours with nothing to do but relax.” Marjorie adds that some days are busier than others. “Some days we both run around like headless chooks,” she says, “but on the whole if you plan your days right it’s not too bad and you have a great deal of flexibility in your life.”

Permanent tenants sign a lease and occupy the premises for a minimum term of six months, whereas holiday tenants may stay as little as one night.

Managing holiday complexes versus permanent complexes: • Permanent complexes involve fewer hours of work and less daily face-to-face interaction with tenants/guests. Permanent complexes usually have fewer amenities than holiday complexes. • A higher level of income is usually obtainable in a holiday complex. Not only is the commission higher, but you can often earn extra income on things like tours, linen and phone calls. • Holiday complexes thrive on repeat business, so good public relations skills are rewarded. A happy, friendly manager helps make for a happy holiday experience or business trip and guests come back, time after time. • Commission rates are different. In permanent lettings, your commission is normally five per cent of the rent collected, plus a 2.5 to three per cent management fee, and a further fee of one week’s rent on a change of tenancies. Short-term holiday lettings attract a commission of around 12 per cent of the rent collected. However, many permanent complexes have almost 100 per cent occupancy, whereas many holiday complexes strive for a 75 per cent occupancy. Source: www.raasrights.com.au

property reviews Back to nature in Buderim This architecturally designed home on 1.25 acres with town water is only two minutes from central Buderim yet feels miles away from it all. Extensive landscaping with low-maintenance native gardens includes a running creek on the lower boundary. The bush chalet-style home is nestled amid gum trees. The entrance has a timber boardwalk leading to the front door and an impressive peaked ceiling with exposed beams in the foyer. Two of the five bedrooms, plus the fully renovated atrium-style main bathroom, are at the front of the home while on the second level you will find the ensuited master bedroom with a private deck. Timber floors, a fireplace, large entertaining deck and plenty of windows invite the scenic outdoors in. A brand-new kitchen with quality appliances and stone benchtops will make entertaining a breeze. Separate open-plan areas for dining, lounge and a media room, along with two more large bedrooms, create many choices for the new owners in this comfortable retreat. If tranquillity, bushwalking and rock-hopping through a creek sound appealing, so close to the Coastâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best schools and only 10 minutes from the beach, this wonderful property is a must to inspect.

When you live on the water, you need to take full advantage of it, and this home offers the ultimate waterfront experience. The architecturally designed property faces north with a generous covered entertainment area and pool overlooking the jetty and pontoon. The open-plan living area features a kitchen, dining and lounge. Pass through this to a separate living zone and large master bedroom with

ensuite to one side of the property, and an additional study and bedroom/ media room on the other. Upstairs has two big bedrooms, a bathroom and separate living area.

Situated in central Maroochydore, this family home is a fantastic buy for first-home owners or renovators. The house is of solid brick construction, and features four double bedrooms and is only minutes to Maroochydoreâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s shopping and cafe district. The open floor plan and vaulted ceilings, accompanied by hardwood timber floors, creates a fantastic and unique character feel. Large wraparound

verandahs take advantage of the elevated position and capture natural breezes. This home is a must to inspect.

This large, solid home is a walk to Buderim village on 1233 square metres of level land with views to the hinterland. The solid, double brick, three-bedroom, two-bathroom home with double lock-up garage is in its original condition. An astute owner could renovate and even extend and benefit from the enviable location. For the savvy developer, you could knock it down and optimise the many opportunities available on such a big

block. The existing residence has large living areas including an enclosed deck and spacious formal lounge/ dining area with air-conditioning, an open-plan kitchen and meals area, large laundry and, under the original carpet upstairs, are beautiful timber floors. There is also a restored roof, side access, a large shed with power and plenty of level land.

hinterland

Down by the river by Dorothy Drane

Tree-changers heading for the quiet Coast hinterland need not give up their dreams of a home by the water. Dorothy Drane discovers that there are plenty of places west of the highway that still offer a waterside lifestyle. aterfront doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to mean ocean or canal front. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what tree-changers moving to the hinterland are discovering, with plenty of options for living beside the water. There are pretty creeks trickling through bushland, waterfalls tumbling over rocky cliffs, freshwater swimming holes, deep river accesses to the ocean and wide expanses of the regionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s various water supply dams. The Maroochy River and its tributaries provide plenty of superb waterfront sites as they meander towards the mouth via Yandina and Bli Bli, and there are plenty of rock pools and small spring-fed creeks around the Blackall Range. On the western side of the range, the Obi Obi valley has dozens of picturesque watercourses, while properties on the eastern slopes, including Hunchy and West Woombye north to Cooloolabin, have creeks

spilling down the range, some creating impressive waterfalls. The municipal water supply also opens up waterfront opportunities. Baroon Pocket Dam, accessed from Montville and Maleny; Ewan Maddock Dam between Landsborough and Glenview; Wappa Dam between Yandina and Image Flat and Cooloolabin Dam all provide waterfront living opportunities. Here are some examples of hinterland waterfront properties up for grabs: Absolute frontage to Petrie Creek: This 41-acre site in Bli Bli valley is in a tidal part of Petrie Creek that offers deepwater access to Maroochydore and the ocean, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a 12-minute drive to the CBD. A big rural retreat for those who love boating and fishing. $825,000. Leading Edge, Nambour, phone 5441 4899 >

new home & land

Setting the standard The first, fully complete prestige residence at the Hyatt Regency’s Whitehaven Beachside in Coolum is raising the bar and setting a high benchmark to say the least. hile many housing projects claim to set the benchmark for luxury beachside living, Craig Cleary Constructions’ master-built home in Whitehaven Beachside at Hyatt Regency Coolum really does live up to all the buzz. The recently completed home is the first in the exclusive community and it oozes style and sophistication, offering all the mod cons for easy living. Positioned on a north-facing allotment, the home boasts 2.7-metre ceilings and solid core 2.4-metre doors. But that is just the beginning. Other luxury features include smart-zone ducted air-conditioning, home automation to the living and entertaining areas, a heated lap pool, reflection pond and an integrated built-in outdoor barbecue/kitchen. The home has three bedrooms, plus a study, and 2.5 bathrooms. The double-car garage has a buggy storage area, an essential for a home so close to the Hyatt’s golf course. Whitehaven is a luxury, beachfront gated community nestled in the south-eastern pocket of Beachside at Hyatt Regency Coolum. Lend Lease has just 13 exclusive house and land packages currently available within this gated community, starting at $1.7 million. The homes, built by a select group of Sunshine Coast’s leading builders, draw their inspiration from the beautiful coastal setting, the timeless quality of the resort’s architecture
