I was a little shocked this week to learn that the demand for electricity in South-East Queensland has risen by 50 to 70 per cent in the past decade. Excuse the pun, but I thought we were a little brighter than that. Is the growing awareness of reducing carbon footprints not rubbing off on us? It appears not. In fact, our insatiable desire for big-screen plasmas and plush temperature-controlled living are giving South-East Queenslanders a pretty dismal report card when it comes to power consumption, and as our cover story points out, we could pick up our ‘green’ game when it comes to waste and water, too. Organisers are endeavouring to continually educate with programs such as Earth Hour, which is approaching on March 28. For one hour, more than 50 million people around the globe are expected to switch off their lights in a bid to combat global warming. Let’s hope we’re keen to flick the switch here, too.

After all, just like the old adage, when it comes to electricity consumption in SEQ, it would seem the lights are all on but nobody is really home.

Water, Watts & Waste

by Jemma Pearson

We deliver the Coast’s first report card on saving the planet by investigating the big three W’s – water, wattage and waste.

And while the grades look good in some subjects, it appears we are sadly failing in others.

E

Wattage:

Despite a growing awareness of the huge impact fossil-fuel-burning electricity has on the planet, SouthEast Queensland residents have increased their demand for electricity by 38 per cent over the past five years. And this one cannot be blamed on population growth alone.

The demand is exceeding growth and the responsibility lies with power-hungry appliances like air-conditioners.

Sunshine Coast Regional Councillor Keryn Jones says, “Demand for power on the Coast has increased by 50 to 70 per cent in the past decade and it’s time we ‘pulled the plug’ on our energy demands and our greenhouse gas emissions.”

It’s time to make a change, says Keryn. “Individuals, families, neighbourhoods and business all need to make everyday changes in the way they use electricity to achieve better environmental outcomes.”

Kath Ryan, spokesperson for Energex has also seen an increase in electricity consumption on the Sunshine

“

The Sunshine Coast Regional Council reports that each Australian family produces enough rubbish in a year to fill a three-bedroom house

“

veryone wants to be green, but as the old saying goes, it’s not easy. Government, green groups and even our electricity providers have lately been encouraging us to switch off lights, recycle and turn down the air-con. But are Sunshine Coast home owners listening? Is the Coast winning the race to save the planet, or is our region letting the green team down? MPR finds out by looking at the three big environmental foes – wattage, water use and waste.

Coast. “We’re encouraging people to slow down energy consumption,” Kath says. “Really simple things like set the air-conditioner to 24 degrees. Wash your clothes in cold water and then hang them on the line to dry rather than using the drier. Move to CFL light bulbs. Stand-by power is a big one, so turn appliances off at the wall and unplug them.” Stand-by power – such as keeping the TV and microwave plugged in when you’re not using them

– uses as much as 10 per cent of a household’s total power consumption. And of course, Kath adds, when purchasing new appliances, check the star ratings to find the most energy-efficient one you can afford.

Despite all the advice, Queenslanders are not using their energy wisely. Keryn says, “Because of the rapid growth in the region and an increase in power-hungry items such as air-conditioning units and plasma TVs, the Sunshine Coast is set to increase power usage by around 40 per cent over the next six years.”

That rate of consumption is simply not sustainable, and Keryn is one of many who are encouraging residents to power down in March to help fight climate change. Most electricity sources in the state come from fossil fuels (coal and gas), which are major greenhouse gas producers. Power stations also require a lot of land and water to keep running, placing a huge strain on the planet.

Queensland Water Commission n (QWC) reports that water consumption on the Sunshine ne Coast is on average around 208 litres per day, so 200 litres shouldn’t be too much of a stretch for most residents.

The QWC reports that water restrictions in other ther parts of South-East Queensland are improving the region’s ability to cope with population growth and climate change, so the restrictions are making a difference to supply. “Water restrictions form part of a smarter, more sustainable way of managing water as a shared regional resource to provide greater security of supply,” says QWC CEO John Bradley.

The QWC has advice for home owners wanting to reduce consumption, such as installing efficient irrigation systems in the garden, planting droughttolerant plants and fitting pool covers to reduce evaporation. Inside the house, those old chestnuts of taking four-minute showers and turning off the water when brushing teeth and shaving make a difference.

Using your dishwasher and washing machine only when there’s a full load is a simple but effective measure, too.

Rainwater tanks greatly cut down on water use and help the environment. Before installing a tank, check with council to find out what approvals are required.

Under the QWC’s Residential Excessive Water Users Compliance program, from January 2010, water use will be monitored and households that exceed 1000 liters per day will be asked to explain their excessive water use. So residents have nine months to review their water usage and start making some changes. How effective the restrictions are remains to be seen.

Waste:

But even if you can’t say goodbye to the wide-screen TV, you can make a difference. Home owners can greatly reduce their carbon footprint by choosing green sources of energy. According to the South East Queensland State of the Region Technical Report 2008, “The number of domestic and commercial customers making purchases of renewable energy in Queensland has risen from 52,253 in the December quarter 2004 to 156,744 in the December quarter 2007, an increase of 200 per cent.”

Renewable energy produces no greenhouse gas emissions and is generated from sources like wind power.

Customers can purchase renewable energy through their normal electricity providers.

Water:

In a country as dry as Australia, and with a population increasing the demand for this most precious resource, water restrictions are inevitable. Residents in the southern states have had them for years, and now water restrictions will become part of life on the Sunshine Coast too (see panel on right). Whether you think the restrictions are fair or not, households on the Coast will have to change the way they use water.

Under the Target 200 water restrictions, residents are asked to use a maximum of 200 litres per person per day.

That equates to a four-minute shower (about 60 litres), a load in the dishwasher (about 40 litres), several flushes of the toilet (about 60 litres) and some cooking and cleaning (which uses about 10 litres per minute). The

The Sunshine Coast Regional Council website reports that each Australian family produces enough rubbish in a year to fill a three-bedroom house. And according to the South East Queensland State of the Region Technical Report 2008, South-East Queensland councils deposited about 996,000 tonnes of domestic waste in 2006-07, an increase from 875,000 in 2004-05. That’s a 14 per cent rise in pizza boxes, rotten apples and milk cartons.

Population growth and related construction of homes and businesses is, of course, going to generate more waste on the Coast, but it’s surprising how much the average Sunshine Coaster pops in the home wheelie bin and what a big impact this has on the numbers.

Before the Sunshine Coast gets bogged down under the weight of its resident’s rubbish, home owners must embrace recycling. In the 2007/2008 financial year, the SCRC diverted 26,500 tonnes of recyclables from landfill. But council can do this only with the co-operation of residents. It’s no good having recycling bins if residents don’t use them. The Technical Report says, “The bulk (84 per cent) of the domestic waste received by councils in South-East Queensland was landfilled. Much of this co-mingled domestic waste could be composted if collected separately.”

The SCRC says kitchen scraps and garden waste account for as much as 37 per cent of domestic rubbish.

That’s a lot of unnecessary landfill. By embracing composting and investing in a worm farm, residents could effectively reduce the amount of rubbish that goes to landfill by a third.

Composting organic waste, being vigilant about separating recyclables and recycling clothes and furniture by giving, and buying from, charity shops will greatly ease the landfill strain. There are only so many places on our Coast we can keep burying our rubbish.

Flick the switch F h Don’t have plans for the evening of March 28? Well you do now.

Between 8.30pm and 9.30pm, businesses and households are being encouraged to turn off the lights in support of Earth Hour.

Started just two years ago in Sydney, where 2.2 million homes and businesses switched off their lights, last year 50 million people from San Francisco to Rome flicked the switch in support of the planet. While it does save on electricity, Earth Hour is an important message to governments that the people are serious about the problem of global warming. This year the Earth Hour organisers hope one billion people around the world will take part, so do your bit and power down for just one hour. our.

For more information visit www.earthhour.org.

Get water wise Residents who rely solely on town water take note: from July 1, Medium Level (Target 200) water restrictions come into effect. The restrictions apply to how and when residents can water gardens, how they wash their cars and fill their pools, even how they can clean out wheelie bins and barbecues. The Queensland Water Commission advises that residents will still be able to water gardens, top up pools and wash the car, but within times set out in the water restriction guidelines. The QWC has a fact sheet that spells out the hows and whens of water restrictions that apply to you. It can be downloaded from www.qwc.qld.gov.au.

#1 Buy in bulk The Sunshine Coast Environment nt Council is looking to sign up more re residents to its Solar Bulk Purchase scheme. #2 SCEC is encouraging residents who meet the criteria (their household income must be less than $100,000 and they must have the right type of roof), to take part in this scheme before July. That way they will be able to take advantage of the federal government’s Solar Home and Communities Plan, which offers a rebate of about $9000 (the figure will drop to about $5000 after June) to install solar power, thus reducing your electricity bill and carbon footprint.

Safe & sound House break-ins are one of the most common crimes in Queensland, but most are preventable. Follow our 10 tips for protecting your home, your family and your possessions.

1

4

Plan your holidays

Lock it up

Time it

It sounds obvious, but it’s important to keep your doors, windows and the garage locked at all times, even when you’re home. Thieves are opportunistic and many break in through unlocked or open doors and windows.

Installing timers on lights and a radio adio will help deter would-be burglars as itt gives the impression that someone is home. This is especially important when you’re away on holidays.

Let there be light

2

Build it in

If you’re building a new home, talk to your builder or architect about designing to prevent crime. Ask your builder to install solid doors, get an electrician to illuminate dark spots, add locks on all windows and consider installing an alarm system.

The door to safety

3

The safest doors are of solid-core construction and feature dead bolts. Safety hinges will prevent the door being pulled from its hinge. If you have French doors, instal lever push-bolts or key-operated locks. The addition of a security door will keep intruders out and let the breeze in without compromising your safety. Make sure it complies with Australian Standards and features a heavy-duty frame, three hinges, a deadlock, and seven-millimetre mesh (if aluminium) or 10- to 12-millimetre steel bars (if steel).

Thieves look out for the telltale signs of an empty home, so if you’re going away, plan ahead. Cancel the milk and papers, ask a neighbour to collect your mail and pick up your copy of My Property Review, turn down the phone, lock your wheelie bins away and ask someone to keep an eye on your property.

5

What’s in a lock?

Sensor lights around your property should do the job of deterring any would-be intruder as they will instantly be bathed in light once they step on to your property.

There are many good sensor lights available on the market that are easy to install yourself. Consider these lights a ‘must have’ for your home security. If you go out at night, make sure you leave key internal lights on as well, to give the illusion that someone is home.

Hide valuables away Make sure you adequately hide away your valuables, preferably in a lockable safe. This goes for outdoor items such as bikes as well – if a burglar can’t see something they would like to steal they are less likely to break in to your home.

6

Don’t leave a key

7

Resist the temptation to leave a spare key hidden somewhere outside, just in case you lock yourself out of the house. Seasoned burglars know where to look for keys. Leave a spare one with a trusted neighbour.

8

There are many kinds of locks on the market, but most insurers recommend the installation of, at a minimum, key-operated, two-cylinder deadlocks fitted to all external hinged doors, and key-operated locks or patio bolts fitted to external sliding doors. In addition to these door locks, ensure your windows are secured by either a key-operated, singlecylinder window lock or a security grill or screen.

These are available from most hardware stores.

9

Install an alarm A home alarm or security system is a great deterrent for intruders. The most comprehensive package is a home security system that is monitored 24 hours by a security company. Non-monitored systems and alarm packages are also available. Do your research and speak to the most reputable providers before signing up.

Art from the Hart

by Alli Grant

Artist David Hart’s Tanawha property is more than the family home. It’s the centre of his business, the location of his studio and a showcase for his and his father’s work.

A

right now,” David says. “All I want to do is paint and you can get caught up in the other stuff.”

Luckily for him, he has nine staff to help him realise his vision, so he can indeed concentrate on his art and his family. “On an average day, I’ll take the kids to school then come home and go straight to the studio,” David says. “Sometimes I’ll read for a while as I get inspiration from reading. I’ll get the canvasses ready and decide what I want to work on for the day and paint

“

It’s a great yard as there’s plenty of space for the kids.

It does require bit of work but I like to do it myself

“

pproach the gates of artist David Hart’s home, and you know you’re in the right place, thanks to the bronze dragonflies that adorn the entrance.

Dragonflies are one of David’s trademarks, along with bright flowers, outback scenes and abstract works.

David, wife Christine and their three children Harrison, Chloe and Jacob have lived on the lush 1.5-acre Tanawha property for seven years, completing significant renovations on the small original house two years ago. The result is a spectacular, modern family home that boasts five bedrooms, a stunning outdoor area and pool, and plenty of spectacular artwork inside.

Behind those impressive gates, the property also houses David Hart Galleries’ head office and warehouse, and David’s studio. The business is doing well, despite the challenging financial times, thanks to forwardplanning and preparation on David’s part. “Twelve months ago I realised that we had to be more innovative in how we go about our business if we were to survive and continue to grow,” he explains. “We sell luxury items so you tend to see the downturn sooner as luxury items are the first thing people cut back on.

“We have put a number of new systems in place and looked at what we can do ourselves, rather than o outsourcing. We are also promoting the business Australia-wide and havee developed smarter products that enhance what we do and don’t ha rt home in Tanaw t The Ha devalue our other products like signed digital reproductions, sketch books, journals and kitchen products like linen tea towels.”

With so many business pressures associated with running the two galleries in Noosa and Mooloolaba, it’s a wonder he has time to paint. “The business is doing very well but having the two galleries is enough for me

until about 3pm. I’ll then catch up with staff, check my emails and look at new products. I’m pretty structured.”

David’s painting space has a number of different pieces ‘under construction’. The walls feature positive, loving messages painted for him by his three children.

“I just paint and I don’t tend to worry about timelines,” Daivd says. “I don’t get too stressed.

The best thing is that now I can paint what I want to paint. When you start out you have to paint what people want to buy. I do look at what sells though.

“The kids will come in and have a go. My daughter is working on a few abstract pieces at the moment,” he says, showing off the impressive canvasses. impres But it was a different story for David growing up with his famous father, artist Pro Hart. “Dad used to get annoyed if I came in [while he was painting]. He came off the land – he was tough and grumpy at times, and he was always so busy. But he would sometimes throw some paints on the table for me. I only ever really painted with

David’s family

home is also

his studio and

gallery

him once in my twenties. Pro always had different stuff around – pottery and scrap steel for sculptures, so we’d be able to have a crack at different things.”

David’s focus is a historical series two years in the making called The Arrivals, about the arrival of the First Fleet, as seen through the eyes of the indigenous people.

When he finishes the series it will feature 55 pieces.

“I started off wanting to paint Captain Cook and the arrival of the First Fleet. Part of the way through I decided to get input from some of the traditional owners and thanks to input from an incredible lady called Anita Heiss, I realised that I was painting completely from a white man’s perspective, so I decided to ditch half of what was painted and start again.”

David has also taken to picture framing and photography, recently purchasing a set of impressive studio lights. And he is master of the family’s impressive garden. “It’s a great yard as there’s plenty of space for the kids. It does require bit of work but I like to do it myself,” David explains as he walks over the perfectly manicured lawn from his studio to the house. He strolls past the stunning pool and expansive entertainment area, complete with outdoor kitchen and barbecue, and wanders into the house where Christine, is busy on the phone running the business.

The Hart house is a gallery itself, as the walls are adorned with many of David and his father’s works.

In the pool room is one of Pro’s famous Gold Coast beach scenes. Directly opposite is the same scene, as interpreted by David. “I wanted to have a go at painting the same scene as dad and see how it turned out,” he says. While their styles are different, it’s clear that David has been blessed with his father’s same gift – of beautiful storytelling through art.

column

All together now

by Dorothy Drane

MPR columnist and baby boomer Dorothy Drane is shocked to learn that while she thought she was one of a kind, she is actually one of many.

H

hard, bought a house, had babies, strived for the ideal nuclear family, invested, lost our parents and now we are moving into smaller places and ditching all the things we worked so hard to accumulate.

Some of us had babies in our early twenties, others delayed it to the late twenties, but very few thought about it after 30. That would have been just way too old.

So, here I am, one of this great group that has been giving market researchers a dream run since 1946.

This total lack of individual thought on my part was brought home when I interviewed a complete stranger who had also downsized. We had so much in common we could have been talking in stereo.

She and her partner had not only downsized from the home to an apartment, but had sold up pretty

“

This lack of individual thought was brought home when I interviewed a stranger who had downsized.

We had so much in common we could have been talking in stereo

“

ere I am, all my life, thinking I am outrageously individual, and now I have been cut down in my prime with the discovery that it is unlikely that I have ever had an original thought.

That, my friends, is the danger of being born a baby boomer.

Anything I have ever thought has probably already been thought a thousand times over, by the many others among us who were born within this period of roughly a decade following the Second World War. Basically, everything I have ever done has already been done or is about to be done. I have had a bit of a hunch about this for a while, but it was all confirmed recently in a couple of interviews.

The demographer Bernard Salt, whose job it is to observe and document these people trends, was quite blunt about it actually.

“Don’t think that your wish to move from the family home and downsize to an apartment is any different to anyone else. They’re all doing it,” he says.

And then he went on and listed all the reasons why “they’re all doing it’’. Not that he needed to, because as it turned out, I knew them already – no longer a slave to cleaning the house, central location where you don’t need a car, somewhere that can be locked up and left for a few weeks without dramas, fewer rooms to worry about and so on, all basically adding up to more time for living life.

In fact, until that moment, I had thought that these were all my very own personal reasons, and not part of a wider trend.

Research confirms that the baby boomers end up thinking the same way, which is a bit of a scary way to have your life mapped out before you.

We led the way with backpacking trips to London in the ’70s, a time when Bazza McKenzie turned Earls Court into Kangaroo Valley. We came home and embraced the great Australian dream – we worked

much everything along the way, choosing to start their new life completely afresh.

It is a nice story. Her decisions evolved and she took it all just one step at a time.

As she pointed out, if you say you have to sell the motorbike, sell the car, sell the house, sell the furniture, get rid of everything that you have accumulated for more than 20 years, then it sounds like an awful lot to do and so daunting you probably would never quite get around to doing it at all.

But when it is just one step at a time, the dream gradually unfolds.

She and her partner even found their dream apartment by accident after taking a wrong turn and ending up in a dead-end street where they were confronted by a for sale sign. They signed up without even looking any further, as you do when you are making a great life change and following your heart.

They then went back to their house in the suburbs and spent the next six months putting an old life in order and preparing for the new. She had been in her job for 15 years, gave six months’ notice and set about training new staff. Her partner was self-employed and decided to retire, so simply informed his customers that it was all over.

They not only sold their house, but everything in it with “the biggest garage sale ever’’. Even the crockery and cutlery went.

Furniture they had carefully commissioned to be built for special corners of their home were sold along with the house. Gone were the genuine timbers and the country kitchen, as they welcomed a clean black and white kitchen with a splash of red.

They also downsized to one car, exchanging the other for a scooter, two bikes and two new pairs of runners.

Signing up for a new apartment is signing up on a new lease on life.

There is no room for sentimentality as we baby boomers are discovering that we want to get out and enjoy what remains of our life – and if I thought that was an original thought I was wrong about that too.

He wears a T-shirt that says, “Growing old is compulsory. Growing up is optional.” I also like the one I saw on a woman lounging in a Cotton Tree coffee shop that read simply “recycled teenager’’. Yep, that’s me all right.

First and foremost Real estate industry expert advocates an extension to First Home Owner Boost. he Real Estate Institute of Queensland is pushing for the Federal Government to extend the First Home Owner Grant, which is due to expire on June 30 this year. According to the REIQ’s managing director Dan Molloy, first-home owners are imperative to the overall health of the state’s property market.

“I cannot stress how important first-home buyers are to the overall health of the property market as well as to their local economies,” Dan says. “They really are the oil that keeps the wheels of the property market moving and without them – as happened early last year when interest rates were high – everything grinds to a halt.”

He adds that first-home owners inject funds into

T

their local economies through buying ancillary products and using local tradesmen. “Without first-home buyers, the property market Australia-wide would really be in dire straits and many jobs would be lost – not just in the real estate industry but in a number of other industries as well. The Federal Government needs to seriously consider extending the First Home Owner Boost beyond the current June 30 deadline,” Dan says.

According to the REIQ, the latest Australian Bureau of Statistics figures show the proportion of Queensland first-home buyers increased to 25.9 per cent in January compared with 24.7 per cent the month before, to now become the highest proportion since January 2002.

Sitting on a sizeable east-facing 577-square metre parcel of land, this home offers a three-bedroom unit downstairs and separate two-bedroom granny flat upstairs. Send the kids to acres of waterfront parkland opposite the property and watch the boat traffic in to Pumicestone Passage from the privacy of your own home. Conveniently located near major shopping and boutique stores, you can renovate or detonate, or use as a weekender or family home. This is an exceptionally good time to enter the beachfront market.

Cottage ease

by Dorothy Drane

Tree changer Marie Blanch has left the big city hassles behind with her new home on the range, and this baby boomer couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be happier with her cottage in Maleny. mpty nesters are discovering that thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life in them thar hills, and Marie Blanch is one of them.

One of Malenyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s newer residents, she is also one of its biggest fans, having joined the wave of city dwellers who donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mind a drive to work in the city, but no longer want to live there.

Like many tree changers, Marie is a baby boomer and a member of the social group that demographer Bernard Salt says is â&#x20AC;&#x153;hitting the tripwireâ&#x20AC;?. It may be impending retirement, the death of a parent, a divorce, children leaving home or a health scare, that triggers this group to make a move. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This group, now aged 47 to 61 years, has common values and thinking,â&#x20AC;? Salt says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is a clearly defined demographic and as they hit the tripwire, they are making serious lifestyle decisions. They are cleaning out and streamlining.â&#x20AC;?

E

In Marieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s case, the tripwire was a combination of empty nest and divorce that led her to look at streamlining her lifestyle and to focus on how she wanted to live as she headed towards retirement. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My ex-husband and I had raised our daughter, and then accommodated her, her partner and new baby, in a three-bedroom house in Salisbury in Brisbaneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s south. While the house wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t that much bigger than the house I bought in Maleny, it had a lot of bells and whistles such as air-conditioning, a pool and a dishwasher,â&#x20AC;? she says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I felt that not only was it unnecessary to have all those features just for me, but environmentally damaging and expensive to maintain.

It made sense to find a smaller, more ecologically friendly house. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s exactly what I found in my two-bedroom, big-deck cottage.â&#x20AC;?

Marie moved to the Tobermory Downs estate almost a year ago. She still returns to Brisbane for part of the week to work, but she loves living in Maleny.

Tobermory Downs has been released in stages over almost a decade, but is now moving quickly as housing marches up and over a hill to the west, where it joins another land release. Houses are still going up in the area. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My relocation to Maleny was a deliberate move to get out of the family home and into something more suitable for a single woman,â&#x20AC;? Marie says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was struggling with the maintenance on my suburban â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;post-war charmerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; in Brisbane, and wanted something smaller and newer, without a swimming pool.â&#x20AC;?

She had no wish to move to the beach, but was keen to get out of the city. She also had a dog, which ruled out apartment living. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I spent three weeks

searching far and wide in Brisbane and, as this was February 2008 and the peak of the market, whenever I saw anything that I could afford in real estate windows, it was no longer for sale by the time I walked in the door,â&#x20AC;? she says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I considered buying in Toowoomba or the Moreton Bay islands, figuring my boundary was about 100 kilometres or an hourâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s travel from Brisbane. Then I decided that if I was going further afield, I wanted it to be to the north, as I work on that side of Brisbane and it made sense from a commuting point of view.â&#x20AC;?

She spent her annual leave looking for inspiration and then, returning to work after a fruitless search, one of her colleagues mentioned Maleny. She had never even been to the Blackall Range before, and decided to check it out. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The house I fell in love with

was the first to come up on a Google search I did of the town,â&#x20AC;? Marie said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I jumped in the car and was there within a few hours of speaking to the agent. I put in an offer to buy before I left.

The homeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s attraction was its proximity to Brisbane, the low level of maintenance and the price, as well, of course, as its aesthetic appeal â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a wooden cottage with wide verandahs beside a lagoon slicked with water lilies and populated with bird life, a pleasant walk from the centre of a vibrant yet peaceful country town.

Marie bought for $5000 more than she sold, but then built a fence around her new house. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The house I sold was due for a new kitchen, so I figure I came out about even,â&#x20AC;? she says.

Marie was eager to get away from the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s increasing traffic, a factor which also drew her to the range ahead of the coast. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I like the access to the beach from Maleny. I find the coast itself is too busy.

The idea was to get away from traffic, not swap one jam for another,â&#x20AC;? she says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I love the hinterland. It is peaceful and green. I enjoy the cold in winter. The people are lovely and a bit â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;alternativeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and it offers a wonderful sense of leaving your big-city problems behind when you are driving up the mountains.â&#x20AC;?

Doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t sound like she has any regrets? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Absolutely none. I love Maleny and my house is gorgeous.â&#x20AC;?

Nambour home built to last Set on a private 1677-square metre allotment, this well-built brick home is ideal for the family who wants space and comfort. The home has three large bedrooms with walk-in robe and ensuite off master, the fourth bedroom with a separate entrance, sumptuous formal lounge room, spacious dining off the large kitchen, outdoor entertaining area, downstairs rumpus/family room, inground pool in tropical setting, double garage with dual access and two-street frontage.

Stage three now selling at Woombye’s Plantation Rise. ew roads linking Maroochydore, Kawana and Caloundra directly to the highway are making destinations such as Woombye in the hinterland a lot more accessible – especially for those looking for a bit of land.

Woombye has already been identified as a growth area and much of the infrastructure is already in place with major roads, schools and shops all within easy reach.

Plantation Rise Estate offers affordable, large home sites and is located off Taintons Road on what was previously a pineapple farm.

It’s just across the road from the Woombye State School with the Nambour Christian College a short walk over the Nambour Connection Road overpass.

What differentiates Plantation Rise Estate is the lot sizes, which range from 862 to more than 1850 square metres (averaging 1195 square metres). To make the

N

building process even easier, each lot has a building pad already constructed on it, most of which are in excess of 420 square metre.

In the construction of the house pad, the natural undulating landscape has not been compromised so that elevation and views that characterise Woombye still remain.

Stage one is sold out, stage two is almost sold out and now stage three has commenced with an initial release of 16 lots. Building covenants ensure no zero building alignments, so residents will have privacy, even from the closest neighbours.

Land prices start from $282,000 and house and land packages from approximately $550,000. With settlement not due until June 2009, residents also have the benefit of paying only a five per cent deposit and plenty of time to plan that dream house.
