46 Welcome to our first historical collector’s edition of My Property Preview. Twice a year, we’ll theme our magazine and take you on a trip down memory lane to a time when horse-drawn carts occupied Buderim and Nambour, and when artillery vehicles and tanks roamed the streets of Caloundra. There is an abundance of old black and white photos dating back to as early as 1902 for you to marvel over and our feature writer, Dorothy Drane, has penned some very interesting facts about early local produce, transport and land development on the Sunshine Coast. Some of the old aerial photos are my favourite. When you compare them to current aerial shots from the same location, it’s easy to identify the landmarks that still remain, and the new developments which have changed the landscape of the Sunshine Coast. Enjoy the Easter break, relax on the lounge with a cup of coffee, some chocolate eggs, My Property Preview and reflect on the old times. Enjoy.

Give me land by Dorothy Drane

F

rom slab hut to canal-front manor, from selection to masterplanned community and from a handshake sale to multiple in-room auctions, the Sunshine Coast real estate industry has moved into a grand-scale landscape during the past century. And although many who have gone before may have been quite satisfied with the resale value of their property, the prices achieved would hardly cover the grocery bill at the check-out in the new millennium. In the beginning, selectors came and by simply living on their land for a specified time and making some improvements along the way, claimed ownership. In 1868, the new Queensland Parliament passed an Alienation of Crown Lands Act, which made land available for a minimum price of one pound an acre. Selection allowed for areas of land between 210 and 640 acres to be taken up at different prices,

depending on the land’s potential. A homestead selection was the smallest and cheapest, but at between 80 and 160 acres, still a substantial landholding opportunity. During the first five years, 10 shillings (about $1) an acre had to be spent on substantial and permanent improvements. Failure to do so or to not live on the selection for six months could lead to forfeiture to the Crown. Eventually, provided all conditions were met, the selector could be entitled to a Deed of Grant for freehold tenure. In the 1880s, the government opened up land in Palmwoods for selection at two shillings and sixpence (about 45 cents) an acre, to be paid off at threepence (about five cents) an acre a year. Selectors began to arrive, most of A team of local real estate agents, Nambour, early 1960s

them taking up about 160 acres. A land sale in Palmwoods in 1905 offered 116 acres, of which 20 acres were cleared, three minutes from the railway station with main road frontage, for the equivalent of $700 – but it had to be paid in cash. The price included a six-room weatherboard house, two tanks, a barn, stable, cart sheds with all implements, 200 coffee trees, citrus trees and three acres of bananas. On October 11, 1912, the Central Palmwoods Estate was advertised for auction: “The famous big paddock on main Palmwoods-Montville Road right at the rising town of Palmwoods. Centre of the great north coast rain belt. Over 60 inches per year. 600 acres scrub and forest land, deep chocolate and black soil. Finest pineapple, citrus fruit and agricultural land in the district. Splendidly watered by Paynter’s Creek and tributaries. Subdivided in 21 farms, 10 to 40 acres each. At terminus projected Buderim MountainPalmwoods tramway. Liberal terms. Deposit 3 shillings in the pound.” Preferred property before the turn of the century was in the hinterland and on the range, areas most prized for their agricultural value where owners could eke out a living. And since then, property values haven’t looked back, regardless of where the property was on the Sunshine Coast. In 1939, one of the first subdivisions in Alexandra Headland, facing Mooloolaba Road and Janet Street, was priced at 10 pounds an allotment. A decade later, a house lot of 24 perches, or about 600 square metres, went for 150 pounds. At about the same time, in the late 1940s, one of the more prestigious subdivisions was the Foote Estate on Buderim, with about 40 blocks ranging from half an acre to four acres fronting the new streets of Eckersley Avenue and Fountain Road. With a north-easterly aspect and spectacular ocean views, they were advertised for 250 pounds. In February 1960, Alfred Grant advertised the sale of allotments at “Buddina Beach” from 495 pounds ($1000) and offered a 10 per cent discount for cash. In 1968, three acres in Buderim with

A luxury five-bedroom architect-designed home in Caloundra was priced at $11,000 and a three-acre small crop farm with irrigation and implements and a three-bedroom home, two miles from Caloundra, was $11,600. By 1971, a three-bedroom brick home at Buderim was $14,500 and northern home sites with a northerly aspect ranged from $650 to $1375 for a quarter-acre. A year later, the “Buderim Ginger Farm” was advertised for sale “right in the heart of Buderim” between Mill Road and King Street. Lots started at $3500. In Alexandra Headland, new one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments with “breathtaking views” were up for immediate sale for between $10,750 and $24,750. And from there, it has just kept going on up.

Sunshine Coast

Early life on the mountain I

n 1869 Tom Petrie and sawmill operator William Pettigrew began to harvest beech and cedar from Buderim Mountain. Some of the first settlers after the land was cleared in 1870 were surveyor William Henry Guy and his family, whose name can still be seen in street names around the Coast, such as Guy and Wilguy avenues. Farming of sugar cane and bananas began, along with a short-lived attempt at growing peanuts, and in 1896 the local sugar mill was built. In the early 1890s coffee plantations and citrus orchards appeared and in 1901 Ernest Burnett won a gold medal for his coffee at a trade fair in London. William Burnett introduced ginger farming to Buderim during World War I, and the exotic crop was so successful with local farmers that in the 1940s a Ginger Growers’ Co-operative was formed.

On the move T

he naming of the Bruce Highway took place at a Council Chambers meeting in Landsborough on September 27, 1934. It was named after Mr Henry Adam Bruce, who was the minister for public works at the time. It took almost 13 years of correspondence (most of which was done by Herbert J Layt, Shire Clerk of Landsborough Shire Council), to establish the Bruce Highway. At the Chamber meeting, Councillor Tytherleigh motioned that the North Coast Road should incorporate Mr Bruce’s name and moved that the name of the road be ‘Bruce Highway’. This was seconded by Councillor JT Lowe and the rest of the councilors who were present. The Bruce Highway, stretching 1700 kilometres from Brisbane to Cairns, has since become the biggest traffic carrier in Queensland.

hat was once a large produce farm known as Wises Farm is now the evolving town centre of Maroochydore. The large, multi-hectare site has been heavily redeveloped over the past decade with new major arterial roads linking the Sunshine Motorway with Sunshine Plaza, and the construction of Maroochy Boulevard. With future large-scale development earmarked for the area – including high-density living, major retailers and retirement living – the evolution of Wises Farm has allowed for the much-needed expansion of the Maroochydore town centre.

here was a time, not all that long ago, that some of the Sunshine Coast’s most outstanding real estate was prized for its agricultural value and its location came a very poor second. When there was work to be done, there was no time to sit back and enjoy spectacular views across the hinterland to the coast and never mind the mansion perfectly perched in the hills, it was luxury enough just to have a roof over your head. A lot has changed on the Blackall Range. Less than 150 years ago, loggers were cutting tracks up the slopes to Maleny and then into the vine scrubs in search of ‘red gold’ – cedar. Timber-getting around Maleny was recorded in the Government Gazette of 1864, while Montville’s first attraction was its cedar, beech and pine. There was a booming sawmilling industry in Mapleton where a mill opened on January 1, 1909, to process the tallowwood, blackbutt, stringy bark, grey gum and ironbark.

Sawn hardwood from Mapleton and Conondale mills was used in the 1935 construction of the Hornibrook Highway, the bridge linking Redcliffe and Brisbane. While the escarpment is today coveted for its views from elegant homestead balconies, its slopes then were a valuable tool for getting timber to market. Red cedar, beech, hoop and bunya pines were hauled to the range edge and slid down the side in a series of spectacular chutes before being hauled by bullock teams to the Maroochy and other rivers for shipment to Brisbane. Richard and Anne Remington arrived in Montville in 1890 to farm citrus and

log timber, while George Butt, one of the first homestead selectors in Montville, grew strawberries at Western Avenue while waiting for his citrus trees to mature. In 1904, JP and E Seccombe selected 640 acres in Mapleton. They cleared the land and grew cultivated grasses to start a dairy. The family has been credited with introducing paspalum to Australia, growing it first in NSW and later in Mapleton. After family tragedy struck, the property was sold with the idea of building a sanatorium, but this didn’t eventuate and it was surveyed into small blocks and sold. It was reported on July 11, 1911: “Sale of the Mapleton Estate… a highly successful sale of the Mapleton Estate on Saturday. The sale was held on the ground and there was an attendance of fully 250. The bidding was brisk and the prices indicated the wonderful progress in the district during the past few years. “The total amount realised for about half the land was £5500, the prices ranging from £32 to £10 per acre.” At Mapleton, bananas, maize and pumpkins were among the first crops grown and citrus growing, especially oranges, hit its peak in the early 20th century. The pineapple industry started in 1905, macadamias in the 1930s, and avocados in 1945. Dairying was also important in the green foothills. It began on a commercial scale around the turn of the century. The coast’s first butter factory was built in continued over >

Mr J McCarthy, who was the first selector in April 1879, is regarded as the founder of the dairying industry in Maleny.

At Mapleton,

In 1903 there were 19 suppliers of cream and the factory made 10 hundredweight of butter a week, or 26 tons for the first year. It all began to change in the 1970s, when farmers first started to discover that there was more profit in home sites than hard work and there was more interest in their land than in their produce. During the past three decades the Blackall Range has become a hinterland haven, but one thing has never changed, and that’s its appeal to all-comers.

Sunshine Coast

Next stop: tourism by Dorothy Drane

T A community shed on camping ground at Cotton Tree, 1920. The cotton tree is still there, opposite the King Street entrance.

Picnic grounds, Cotton Tree camp area near King Street, 1920

1959 The first plane landed at Mudjimba Airstrip

housands of holidaymakers will again pour into the Sunshine Coast for the Easter long weekend to lap up the last of the summer holiday season weekends before what passes as winter officially sets in. Double lanes full of traffic snake north from Brisbane, camping grounds from the coast to Kenilworth fill with tents, and accommodation towers come alive with holidaymakers arriving from far and wide. While its proximity to Brisbane has always ensured the Sunshine Coast has had bumper Easter crowds, there has not always been the sheer weight of numbers that we now encourage and accommodate. Where tent cities of canvas and wooden poles would once rise from the council-owned beachfront caravan parks, today’s holidaymakers have a broad choice of holiday property choices from campsite to five-star resort. But it was not always this way.

“

Statistics are available that prove conclusively the fact that the tourist dollar benefits everyone in the community

The constitution of the Sunshine Coast Promotion Bureau was first adopted in March 1968. Its nine objectives included “to promote in every respect the development of shires of Landsborough, Maroochy and Noosa”, “to collect, compile and process information appertaining to primary and secondary industries, commercial interests and tourism” and “to explore the possibilities of establishing new industries and expanding industries based on local facilities and raw materials”.

“

The Government Gazette of August 1, 1967, officially declared the name Sunshine Coast and soon after that, tourism became a serious industry rather than a simple supplement to the primary industries that dominated the local economy. The constitution of the Sunshine Coast Promotion Bureau was first adopted in March 1968. It was a simple document. Its nine objectives included “to promote in every respect the development of shires of Landsborough, Maroochy and Noosa”, “to collect, compile and process information appertaining to primary and secondary industries, commercial interests and tourism” and “to explore the possibilities of establishing new industries and expanding industries based on local facilities and raw materials”.

It clearly spelt out that the income and property of the bureau “whencesoever derived” was to be applied solely to promotion of the objectives of the bureau and not to members. In his first annual report in March 1969, chairman Peter Sharpe (who became a Noosa Shire councillor in 1973) said the Tourist Industry SubCommittee was investigating “many items” including creation of an artificial reef off Mudjimba Island. Litter was a concern and it was decided that Landsborough and Maroochy should follow Noosa’s lead in having honorary wardens to keep the streets clean. The big event, though, was planning festivities for the opening of the new Mooloolaba Harbour. In April 1968, the tourist subcommittee had “almost completed all arrangements” for the first-ever familiarisation tour by travel agents from Sydney and Melbourne. It was deemed a great success with 14 representatives of southern travel agencies given a threeday tour of the Sunshine Coast by bureau members. The three local councils each contributed $70 towards the cost of the tour, which culminated in a “most enjoyable dinner at Tewantin”. By September 1968, the promotion bureau’s membership had climbed to 153 and in November, the Post Master General’s department approved the use of a postmark designed by the bureau to advertise the Sunshine Coast. It was overprinted on all outgoing mail through the Nambour post office in February, May and September 1969. In closing his report, Peter noted, “We have a tremendously difficult task ahead of the Bureau in promoting this Sunshine Coast right throughout Australia. In parts of Australia we are not even known, and this is detrimental to our future. “Statistics are available that prove conclusively the fact that the tourist dollar benefits everyone in the community.” He then appealed to the 169 members in March 1969, to pay a fee of $5 and to the three councils to give financial assistance, to help reach these goals. And the rest is history.

A crowd of 35 people came to this auction. Six groups were registered and bidding opened at $500,000. Two bidders quickly took the price above $600,000, before a third bidder jumped in and bidding intensified, increasing in $10,000 lots. After one couple pulled out at $630,000, auctioneer Rob Horne urged the crowd to consider the replacement cost of such a home, considering the current price of land on Kawana Island. The two remaining bidders fought it out until the home sold under the hammer for $745,000 to a local couple who plan to move in after settlement.

Saturday morning’s auction was held on the unit’s balcony so that the crowd of 40 could admire the river views. Marketing agent and auctioneer Anthony Gorman encouraged buyers to grab the unique opportunity to purchase the only residential unit in a quiet, central complex, and joked that the lucky buyers would get to live above Australia’s best real estate agency (Anthony’s Place Mooloolaba office is on the ground floor). Bidding opened at $750,000 and increased in $50,000 and then $25,000 lots to $1,055,000, as two local bidders fought to secure the property. The unit sold under the hammer to local businesspeople on the final bid of $1.06 million.

his great black and white photo was taken from the air in 1924 and looks down Maroochydore’s Duporth Avenue towards Mooloolaba. It shows little development along the now prestigious waterfront of Duporth Avenue, where resort-style apartment complexes and high-rises such as Banyandah Towers and Platinum now occupy the water’s edge. These days it’s near-impossible to get a residential block along this strip on the water, unless you buy one of a handful of homes along Picnic Point (which nowadays sell for well over $1 million). Basic investment units on the water start at around $400,000, but you can pay in excess of $8 million for a palatial two-level penthouse along Duporth. The median price for Maroochydore as of December 2009 was $449,000 for houses and $348,000 for units.

Looking over Baroon Pocket Dam

ecent rain may have eased the pressure on the Sunshine Coast water supply, but it hasn’t changed anything for local property owners affected by resumptions for the northern inter-connector pipeline. When city fathers began planning for future water needs, the last thing on their minds was that they might have to cater for an area beyond the boundaries of the Sunshine Coast. Their thinking was more about land resumptions to build dams to look after their own, than pipelines to take the precious resource they were collecting away from the region. The first real attention was paid to water as a community resource in the 1950s. Until then, it was every man for himself, with individual householders responsible for their own rainwater tanks. A dam site on Obi Obi Creek at Baroon Pocket was first identified in 1946 as a worthy water supply for both

Maroochy and Landsborough shires, but the proposal became lost in the rivalry between each council’s consulting engineers. In the 1950s, investigations found the whole scheme to be economically unviable and each shire went its own way. Maroochy Shire implemented the region’s first reticulated town water supply scheme by 1961. Wappa Dam was built on the upper reaches of the Maroochy River south of Yandina with a capacity of 4550 megalitres and the smaller diversion weir Poona Dam opened at Image Flat. A system of trunk mains took the water to the townships of Nambour, Alexandra Headland, Maroochydore, Mooloolaba, Buderim, Bli Bli, Coolum, Eumundi, Palmwoods, Woombye and Yandina.

Caloundra’s major water supply scheme started in 1964 after a weir was built on the Mooloolah River and connected to a nearby earth ring tank, a trunk main to Caloundra and reticulation in the town area. It served a population of 3000. Within a decade, the water supply was already again under pressure. Maroochy Shire raised the level of Wappa Dam in 1971 and Landsborough Shire built Ewen Maddock Dam on Adlington Creek in 1975. Construction started on the Cooloolabin Dam in 1978. It was reported in August 1978 that, “Although further development in the region and accompanying increases in population will undoubtedly occur in the future, considerable provision for further growth in demand has been designed into the present water supply systems, which should ensure adequate supplies are available in the area up to the turn of the century.” As it turned out, the population exploded and one month after the 1985 local government election, Maroochy and Landsborough shires voted to proceed with construction of the Baroon Pocket Dam, on the same site first proposed some 40 years earlier. It was officially opened in May 1988 and, a success story from the start, has been the saviour of the central Sunshine Coast. The cost came in at less than $40 million, or $10 million under original estimate, and it was full to overflowing within five months. By comparison, the Cooloolabin Dam, with about one quarter of its capacity, was completed in 1979 and overflowed for the first time only a week earlier than Baroon Pocket. But while civic leaders can take a pat on the back for their vision in creating a successful water storage for the residents of Caloundra and Maroochy, their very foresight has been the undoing of new generations of landholders. The Queensland Bulk Water Supply Authority took over the assets of the Caloundra Maroochy Water Supply Board in February 2008, and the northern connector pipeline was built so that the water from Baroon Pocket could be shared with southern neighbours.

Helpful information to assist you in making money from property investing.

Property investment strategies growth versus return There are two types of property investors: Those that look for capital growth, and those that focus on rental return. Growth investors tend to have a buy and sell philosophy. They flourish in a property boom, and can make large amounts of money in a very short time. On the other hand, those who focus on return on investment have less spectacular gains, but can sometimes amass large property portfolios over time. Over the coming weeks we’ll talk about all three. This week we will talk about Investing for Growth. If you are looking to make capital gains on property, you need to understand what pushes property prices up. There are macroeconomic factors like interest rates which mean that the property market in general goes through cycles. Rather than up-and-down, property generally goes through boom phases, followed by a flat market where prices can go years without too much variance. To take advantage of these cycles, timing is important. It is also not uncommon in Australia for prices to boom in the most heavily populated areas first and then filter out to other states, then smaller towns and country areas.

Land Tax Changes – ill-conceived or good policy?

availability compared with population growth (supply and demand). If there is competition to purchase in an area, then prices are driven up. When you purchase property, the land value usually goes up, while the structure can depreciate. For this reason, growth properties are often houses rather than units. When you buy a house, the land component comprises a larger percentage of the cost than it does with a unit. Of course there are exceptions where the units reside in exclusive locations. Growth properties are usually in the higher price brackets, and a typical investor would probably buy and sell within a few years, since they can become expensive to hold too many. This is an active strategy, where you need to keep your finger on the pulse, and know what is going on around you. At Mortgage Choice we pride ourselves on understanding what it is you’re after and tailoring your lending needs to fit your strategy and we don’t charge for our service – Mortgage Choice Buderim & Maroochydore P: 5476 9333 E: linda.ireland@mortgagechoice.com.au

Land tax is levied annually by the Queensland Government on freehold land owned in Queensland. It is payable by the owner of land in Queensland if the aggregate value of your interest in land exceeds a threshold. To calculate if you owe land tax, the Government uses unimproved values of land which is the value noted on your rates notice, not the market value of your land. Essentially, the more land you own and the greater its unimproved value, the more likely you are to pay land tax. But you would need to own at least $600,000 in the unimproved value of land or more as a natural person for you start paying land tax. Opposition to the proposed changes appears to at least have halted the introduction of the legislation so far. We can only wait to see what happens Note that, depending upon the use of the land, some land tax exemptions are allowed. For further information, please call us.

“If only.......” – Hindsight is a beautiful thing

TAX FREE INCENTIVE FOR 10 YEARS!

18 Brand new townhouses in Nambour are due to be released shortly with NRAS certificates and are expected to sell out very quickly – Selling at $364,900 these spacious 3 bed duplex style townhouses are only a few minutes walk form the CBD and will rent for $350 - $360 per week.

By Matthew Yates Phone 5443 9299

This information is general information only and is the authors opinion, For specific advice, please consult your lawyer.

The other factor with growth properties is limited land

Under the Government backed NRAS (National Rental Affordability Scheme), investors are now able to claim almost $9000 per annum tax free on eligible properties for 10 years – even better, the tax free incentive is indexed so will increase over time (8.4 % increase last year alone)

Recent proposed changes in Land Tax that may affect investors in Queensland have been stalled. The proposed changes seek to simplify calculating land tax but detractors of the proposed changes suggest that it is a business tax and a further grab at revenue by the government. Some have even suggested that the changes are ill-conceived and contain disturbing clauses which infringe on the rights and liberties of individuals.

If you could go back ten years in time, what would you change? No doubt there are many areas of our lives where we would do things differently and these “things” would be different for every one of us.

makes up the difference – In fact these townhouses will return close to $23,000 Gross with $8672 of that being tax free & will effectively run cash flow positive in year one! NRAS allocation is strictly limited so if you would like to know more about how you can purchase one of these super investment properties in Nambour act now!

For more information see Qld Property Investment details below

By interviewing our many aspiring property investors we have come across a particular recurring theme – nearly all of them wish they had started their investment journey ten years ago. They clearly recognise that their personal financial position would be dramatically different to what it is today. In many cases they had enough equity to purchase investment property much earlier in their lives but always managed to delay entering the market. They now regret not acting when then had then opportunity. Yes, hindsight is a beautiful thing but hindsight won’t pay for your retirement. Our best advice is to stop procrastinating and begin your investment journey NOW! The property market is full of excellent opportunities, population growth is ensuring string current and future rental demand and this growth will also underpin future capital growth. Call us today to discuss the range of property investments we have available. Russell Dell or David Hedley-Ward on 5456 0235.

1977 Kawana Estates threatens to stop development if approval is given to local nude beach

“

In Kawana, the only land that was developed was around Harbour Parade in 1967. It was a while after that they did Adaluma Avenue. What got Kawana going was Noel Burns, who worked for the developer Kawana Estates. He decided to do house and land villages, this was the late 70s early 80s. It was about $18,000 for the house and land and you got you a three-bedroom brick home

T

his exceptional image is one of the earliest aerial photographs of this area that we can find. It was photographed in approximately 1965 by a pilot who owned a home in Centenary Crescent at the time. It’s a great depiction of Cotton Tree looking north towards the rivermouth. You can easily identify the Maroochy Surf Club, nestled amongst the sand dunes in the top right-hand corner, and the sporting field and bowls club of Cotton Tree, both of which are still there today. You’ll notice that Alexandra Parade once stretched along the beachfront in front of the Sea Breeze Caravan Park and where Pierce Park now is. It was later cut off – the caravan park now enjoys beach frontage and Pierce Park has a footpath where the road once was. That is why, when travelling from Alexandra Headland to Cotton Tree, Alexandra Parade stops at the southern end of the caravan park and then continues again from the front of Elouera Tower through to the rivermouth at Cotton Tree. It’s certainly enough to confuse travellers without maps. Overall this area is now highly developed and is considered great real estate as it is close to the beach, river and CBD of Maroochydore. Local resident, Herb Bright, bought his patch of sand in Maroubra Street in 1964 for £500. He spent a further £1500 on materials to build his own house, which can be seen in this old aerial shot as the most eastern home on the northern side of Maroubra Street. His house still stands, immaculately. Beside him now are two vacant blocks (see bottom right picture) which are the result of a demolished beach house. One of these 409-square metre blocks just sold for $440,000, whilst the next house along, 30 Maroubra Street (a renovated two-bedroom cottage), just sold for $590,000. Today, houses in Cotton Tree and the beachside streets such as Maroubra, Gardak and Surf Road are tightly held and quite sought-after.

Sunshine Coast

The hub of the Coast T

he capital of the Sunshine Coast, now known as Nambour, was first settled in 1870, by Matthew Carroll. At that time, the town was known as Petrie’s Creek and in 1891, when the rail link with Brisbane was completed, Petrie’s Creek was renamed Nambour after the Nambour cattle station. These early photos show Nambour’s Currie Street as the hub of activity, first in the early 1900s when there were still horse-drawn carts, and below left, where early-model Fords and Holdens occupied the busy centre. Nambour’s median house price is currently $346,450. One can only imagine what a title would have cost in the early 1900s.

1944 Nambour becomes central control for prisoners of war groups. This provides manual labour to surrounding farms Currie Street, Nambour, early 1900s

We used to sell four-bedroom houses in Palmwoods for $125,000 back in about 1988. We were selling older houses in Palmwoods for $80,000 in 1998 and 1999. So that’s pretty cheap. In that era the better houses were about $125,000

$2 FOR 40 ACRES On 19 April, 1887, a Deed of Grant was passed for a local fisherman, Samuel Leach, to purchase a title to his homestead on the northern bank of Bell’s Creek. He’d previously fought long and hard under the provisions of the Crown Lands Alienation Act of 1876 to get the title. Once it was passed, he purchased Portion 26, Parish of Bribie. This 40-acre parcel, which cost him £1/0/0 (approximately $2), is now known as Diamond Head, Golden Beach in Caloundra.

ue to its elevated position, 15 Burgess Street was considered the ideal ‘post’ with exceptional 360-degree views of the Coast north along the water towards Noosa and south to Bribie Island, overlooking Pumicestone Passage. In 1912, a quaint timber home, aptly named ‘The Camp’, occupied the bird’s-eye block of land in Kings Beach before a small lookout tower was built on the top level and it became known as the Australian Army Fire Command post. Lieutenant Col AG Thompson was based at the command post, which worked in conjunction with other batteries in the region, especially Fort Bribie. This home was commandeered by the Australian Defence Force for an observation post due to its high point, reaching approximately 47 metres above sea level. Unfortunately, the historic house burnt down in the mid-1990s, and the land was later split into two allotments. A palatial residence now occupies this site at 15b Burgess

Street. This resort-style home is currently on the market, and Next Property Group’s Daniel Barrios says he expects to fetch around the $4 million-dollar mark.

Sunshine Coast DID YOU KNOW There were machine guns and barbed wire entanglements on the beaches of Caloundra during the Second World War? In fact, Caloundra was classed as a ‘blackout area’, which meant that blackout paper had to be glued on windows or black curtains used in homes. No car headlights were allowed except for the army vehicles, which had most of their headlights painted black with just a slither left bare to shed some light during travel. No street lights were permitted and most windows in Caloundra had chicken wire to stop glass shattering in the event of a bomb attack. During the day, Bulcock Street would be busy with day tanks and artillery on their daily exercises.

Constructed of locally milled white beech, the property in Thynne Court, Maleny, was home to the three daughters – Mabel, Mary and Elizabeth – of Andrew Joseph Thynne, a former Postmaster General of Queensland and Minister for Agriculture. In 1902, he bought 790 acres of prime grazing land on top of the range. The house is reputed to have been built by two Thynne sons,

risk that the remaining patch of subtropical rainforest that had previously covered the southern end of the Blackall Range would be logged. Bessie came up with a way to save the remaining rainforest and resolve the land tax issue at the same time. She gifted the land to the local government in October 1941. Landsborough Shire records show the “giftâ€? to the community of the site cleared the family of land tax owed of ÂŁ324, 10 shillings and four pence.

Thynne main house today < from previous page Scenic Reserve. The sisters’ mother was Mary Williamina Cairncross and when they gifted the 128 acres of Thynne property to the council, they requested it be named in her honour. At the time, the government handed over large tracts of uncleared land as part of the soldier settlement program, and a condition was that the land be cleared for grazing and farming production. Therefore the region attracted loggers seeking the magnificent cedar, beech and camphor, and much of the region was clear felled. World War II was raging in Europe, the authorities were seeking taxes owed on the Thynne property and there was a

Later, Bessie saved another small family holding. A five-acre patch of rainforest in Mary Cairncross Avenue, which she also gifted to the community. The cottage opposite the Thynne family house was home to the various share farmers who leased the dairy. One of those was the Burgess family, and Ray Burgess of Cedar Court, fondly remembers living there as a young boy from 1951 to 1963. “The sisters in the big house had a beautiful garden and paid me five shillings to mow the lawns, “Ray says. “They kept two sheep in the backyard and a Mr Gould would come and shear them by hand, then the sisters would spin the wool. There were no trees on that land. It was all kikuyu grass in my day. And no Thynne Court or Burgess Avenue, just dirt tracks.� Ray remembers well the patch that is now the lush rainforest of Mary Cairncross Scenic Reserve. “It was my job to go and find any cows that hadn’t come home. They would go up a track through the rainforest to the area of the reserve that is now car park and open grassland [the family barbecue and picnic area on Mountain View Road]. “I had to go through the forest to get to them. It was quite frightening. The wild dingoes would stalk me.�

Ray recalls that when the property was cut up and developed in the 1970s, you could buy a 10-acre site for $10,000. Bessie Thynne died in 1978, leaving a remarkable legacy in Mary Cairncross Scenic Reserve. This was her family home, the historic house in Thynne Court, which is now on the market. She had lived here until 1960 when she moved to a smaller cottage in what is now Mary Cairncross Avenue. As for the ghosts. Selling agent David Gamble of Maleny & Hinterland Real Estate assures My Property Preview that subsequent owners have reported seeing or feeling the ghostly presence of a man and three women in the house. And there is a large wooden door that is reputed to close suddenly when the air is still.

Henzell’s Maleny principal Graham Hart has a long association with the Coast.

T

he fact that his great-, greatgrandfather Patrick Pacey (aka Peasy) was an Irish convict, shipped to Brisbane to serve seven years, brings a smile to the face of Graham Hart, principal of Henzells Maleny. At the slightest encouragement he will bring out documents to prove his direct lineage to the Patrick Pacey from County Carlow, including his great-grandfather, another Patrick Pacey, who owned 60 acres at Baroon Pocket and whose family lived in a tent on their timber mill site. This fact was revealed to Graham by Maleny historical society’s Harvey Bryce. “Until then, all I could remember my grandfather telling me was that they lived in a tent in Montville,� Graham says. That his convict ancestor served his seven years, received his Certificate of Freedom, brought his wife and children out from Ireland and set up a tailoring shop in George Street, Brisbane, has Graham quite chuffed.

“One of the waistcoats he made is now in a museum at Moggill,� Graham says. “There are people who let nothing stand in their way to achieve their goals.� Therefore it is no surprise to learn that Graham, in keeping with the tradition established by his convict ancestor, is an

of his long-time commitment to business and the community. It represents his contribution to the banking and finance industry during his years as chief executive officer of Bank of Queensland; nine years as a member, including chairman, of the audit committee of Education Queensland; a member of the foundation board of the Wesley Hospital, a councillor of the Royal National Association (RNA); and for nine years chairman of The Brisbane Festival. Graham says he has scaled down to a handful of boards, which now includes his roles as chairman of the Transport Industry Superannuation Fund, deputy chairman of Maleny Credit Union and chairman of its subsidiary MCU Financial. His latest business venture, outside real estate, is the use of bio-mass technology to produce sustainable or green energy. Meanwhile, he is happy as a clam, living in the Sunshine Coast hinterland and sitting behind his desk at Henzells in Maleny.

cover story

You’ve got mail Need a new letterbox? Read on for tips about creating or buying the one that’s just right for your property. tanding proudly at the entrance to your home, the letterbox isn’t just the receptacle of bills and brochures. It announces to strangers and guests that they have arrived. But what does your box say about you? If it says, ‘tired, old and boring’, it’s time to freshen it up or replace it with something new.

S

Question time There are lots of things to consider when choosing a letterbox. Ask yourself, what colours and materials will suite my property and home? Do I want to buy a ready-made letterbox or construct something myself? The box will need to be hardwearing, as most letterboxes are exposed to the elements. And consider what will surround the letterbox – are there trees or shrubs that will need to be regularly trimmed back so they don’t overtake the box, or is it a barren area that would benefit from a few inviting plantings? Little statues or Buddhas are popular ways of customising the letterbox area and help visitors find you when they call around.

Materials You can buy letterboxes in a variety of materials and styles. The humble aluminium box on a post that you pop in the ground is basic and functional, but if you want something a bit showier you can purchase grand sandstone structures or have a builder construct a mini version of your home. Bricked-in boxes are designed to be built into walls, so are more suited to owners building new homes, while timber boxes come in a variety of sizes and shapes, or you can make your own. Timber will weather faster than other materials, so you’ll probably need to recoat it regularly. Because we live in a coastal climate, choose a material that is resistant to rust, such as galvanised steel or aluminium. Brass and other metals will

rust and age, so just be aware of this is you choose a box with brass locks or fittings.

Accessories You’ll need a number to show the postie the way, and you can get these from the hardware store and screw or glue onto the box. But you can also get creative by painting your property number on, or, if it suites the style, glue on shells or pretty stones in the shape of a number to signal your address. If you’re worried about neighbours stealing your bank statements and phone bills, there are many letterbox locks on the market. Lights are also a good idea, for friends trying to find your place at night.

There’s more Avoid boxes with sharp edges that could injure you and your postie. Make sure the slot is wide enough for your mail, but not too wide that someone could reach their hand inside. A box that is about a metre or so off the ground is ideal and you should position it on your boundary where it will be easy to spot and to access. Have a nosy around your area to check out the types of boxes in your neighbourhood. Some home owners go to great lengths to create a letterbox that is unique and you might pick up some inspiring ideas from them.

Because we live in a coastal climate, choose a material that is resistant

to rust, such as galvanised steel or aluminium

aster Builders is now seeking nominations from residential and commercial Master Builders members in Queensland for the 2010 Housing & Construction Awards. Stephen Robinson, Master Builders regional manager, says, “Winning a Master Builders award provides an excellent platform for acclaim and is a great publicity tool that builders can use to gain public and industry recognition. The awards cater for entrants ranging from apprentices to trade contractors and small family businesses to the biggest names in the industry.” Government, developers, builders and home owners are increasingly turning to sustainable building practices and materials for new buildings. With this in mind, Master Builders has introduced two new categories into the awards program. The Excellence in Sustainable Building and Sustainable Living awards were developed to suit commercial and home builders respectively. They will be presented

includes quality of workmanship, the degree of construction difficulty, external appeal, siting and aspect, ingenuity, and the project’s amenities and aesthetics. Nominations for the Master Builders

awards close on April 9. To qualify for this year’s awards, the project must have been completed by a Master Builders’ member between January 1, 2009 and March 31, 2010. Phone 5453 5260 to find out more.

Let there be light Confused about the different light bulbs on the market? Here’s a quick rundown on lighting. hile h l we are all ll thinking h k about b going greener and saving money, the energy used to light the average Australian home is on the increase. The good news is you can keep your mood lighting and save on energy bills by getting wiser about the types of lights you keep on in your home. Here’s a quick guide to lighting your house.

W

Incandescent Incandescent bulbs are perhaps the most familiar-looking to home owners. They work by running electricity through a wire filament until it heats up and then emits light. Because much of their energy is lost in heat rather than light, incandescent bulbs are pretty inefficient and hot to touch after they are turned on. The bulbs last only about a thousand hours and have to be replaced regularly, so can be annoying in hard-toreach light fittings.

Compact fluoro Many home owners are replacing their old incandescent bulbs with compact fluorescent lamps, or CFLs. Most people will be familiar with the CFLs that use spiral tubes, which look better than the common linear tubes. While CFLs take more energy to manufacture than an incandescent bulb, they have a much longer lifespan, especially the good-quality varieties. However, most CFLs aren’t suited to dimmer switches or sensor lights.

Halogen Halogen downlights are hugely popular in homes, but it takes a lot

of halogens to light a space, because they are so directional, and therefore use a lot of energy. While they are low voltage, they are not low power and halogens are also a fire hazard. Halogen lamps and the bulb wall that houses the light get extremely hot and they have been known to cause house fires. It’s a good idea to replace any existing halogens in your home with IRC lamps. IRCs are exactly the same as standard halogens but with a coating that reflects the heat back into the light, resulting in more light and increased lamp life.

Micro fluoros These use the same technology as compact fluoros but are smaller and designed to fit in a downlight lamp holder. Ask your electrical retailer about how to replace your halogens with micro fluoros.

LEDs LEDs are emerging as a more energyefficient light alternative. These are semiconductor gadgets that emit light. They have a long life, offer a pretty efficient glow and are small, durable and controllable. LEDs are great for display and task lighting, but aren’t as efficient at heating entire rooms, though the technology is moving and new advances in lighting are occurring all the time.

windows & doors

Play it safe Small children and windows don’t mix, especially if you live up high. So keep your toddlers safe by child-proofing your windows. eeping i kids kid i safe f on the th ground d floor is i hard enough, but for home owners with multi-storey homes or for those who live in units and apartments, the dangers to the kids increases. According to Kidsafe, in Australia, the most common place for a child to be injured is in his or her own home and injuries are the leading cause of death for children aged one to 14. Open windows are a temptation for curious toddlers and even closed windows can be prised open by determined little fingers. Furniture only gives these kids a leg up. And traditional flyscreens don’t help, in fact they can lull children and parents into a false sense of security. Even the smallest toddler leaning against a flyscreen can push it open. Falls from windows are serious causes of injury

K

and dd death th ffor young children, hild d b butt th thankfully h kf ll they are all preventable. Here are some steps to take to child-proof your windows:

Stand guard Window barriers or guards are an inexpensive way to temporarily guard an open window. Especially good for renters, window guards come in many shapes, sizes, colours and styles. They are best suited to traditional, doublehung windows, but you can also get guards for sliding windows. Make sure you choose a guard that is designed to make a window child-safe, not one for security, and consider how easy the guard is to remove or unlock in an emergency such as a fire. Window

Falls from windows are serious causes of injury and

death for young children

latches and locks are also available – these stop the windows from being opened beyond a certain distance – say about 10 centimetres. Head to your local hardware shop or baby supply store for these products.

On the move Chairs, desks, low bookcases and large toys are great things to climb and give a curious toddler the help they need to reach windows. Furniture will not prevent the kids from climbing, but only help them, so remove these objects from beneath or beside windows. And it’s not just in the kids rooms that you need to think about furniture placement – look at all living areas, the kitchen and your own bedroom too.

Upside down If your windows open from the top as well as the bottom, always open from the top. If you are building or renovating, choose windows that open only at the top or consider installing the windows upside down. Windows that open at the top and not at the bottom are much safer for toddlers and small kids.

windows & doors

Get meshy We live in a warm climate and even in winter, keeping all doors and windows closed is just not practical. Traditional fibreglass flyscreens are weak and can easily be pushed away from the window – both in and out. If the budget allows, choose stainless steel mesh security screens over traditional flyscreens. There is no way your toddler will be able to push or fall through a security screen, but these screens also have other advantages. They provide good air flow

and safety in one. You can keep windows open for ventilation and know that no one can break in or out. Sam Lyons from local supplier Supaview is selling more and more security screens. He says that while a stainless steel security screen is a lot more expensive than traditional flyscreens “because of the quality, the materials used, and labour and manufacture”, they are a popular choice. “Security is very popular – people are moving away from diamond grill because security screens allow them to enjoy the views and they are good for air flow. In wet areas they are also good. Residents can leave windows open all day and still keep the home secure.” Sam says fire escape systems are available – you can activate a locking device to push open the security screen in fire situation. “Fire escape screens are a good idea at each end of the house.” continued page 134 >

Child safety checklist

QBSA License No: 1177781

• Examine each window in the home and remove any furniture that your children could climb onto to fall outside. • Check all blind cords and window coverings and child-proof them. • Install window guards, locks and latches on windows that could be hazardous. • Don’t rely on flyscreens to keep your child safe. Inexpensive screens keep the mozzies out, but do little to keep your kids safe. • If budget permits, replace flyscreens with security screens. • Don’t ever leave your child unattended – curious toddlers are quick and it only takes them seconds to put themselves in dangerous situations.
