This virtually unchanged coastal home remains true to its vintage from the ground up. The two storey tumbled brick home sits central on the well established garden block, with a beautiful Royal Poinciana shade tree throwing a broad canopy over easy care grounds dotted by forest like beds of bromeliad, birds nest and staghorns. A single driveway runs to an automatic single door garage and the main entry splits to a bedroom with connecting bathroom and on through to a rumpus room.

The home would work as a great beach escape for families looking for extra space. Downstairs is one bedroom, or ideal as a big rumpus room with plenty of bunks. A large laundry and plumbing connected could see a wet bar/kitchen installed and the house split into separate levels. Internal stairs lift to open living rooms and a very well kept kitchen ideal as is while you plan the homes future. Almost three metre wide under roof verandahs wrap around the east south and west elevations, with sliding doors linking living rooms. A hallway links two bedrooms and a bathroom with separate shower and bath.

The elevation rewards the house with patches of blue ocean down the valley to the south as you travel the course of the verandahs. The rear grounds are shaded and lush border vegetation provides a leafy outlook over palm heads and a mature coastal tuckeroo. Take a look up and down this leafy avenue and you see the emergence of new homes and some very thoughtful renovations. From here you can walk to the access at Pilchers Gap and be on the beach in around eight minutes. If caf society starts your day, you have a great choice of baristas and blends in the nearby village for every day of the week. This is a well maintained one owner property wearing its age extremely well.

Features: 507m2 allotment, ocean glimpses, automatic door garage, face brick construction, ceiling fans, wrap around verandahs, established gardens, rumpus room, downstairs bathroom, short walk to beach, Surf Lifesaving Club and village.

They say it’s not ‘what you know, but who you know’; however, in Pip Covell’s case, it’s both…plus a lot of hard work and dedication thrown in. As Principal of Sunshine Beach Real Estate for 20 years, after 10 years working as an Agent there are not many Sunshine Beach locals that Pip doesn’t either personally know or had some type of association with over the years. She has grown the property management side of the business since purchasing 20 years ago, particularly in the holiday rentals area; she employs a team of local people who share her commitment and ethos to delivering a boutique high-end service to their clients, and collectively have unsurpassed local knowledge. Pip’s passion for the Arts has never left her, and Sunshine Beach Real Estate sponsor the annual Sunshine Beach High School Arts Extravaganza, and she is patron of the “Noosa Alive” festival.  As a long-term resident and business owner, Pip is heavily invested in the Sunshine Beach community, and is connected with many of its local groups, and regularly attends community events. In Pip’s own words, “I live here, I work here, I play here.”
