739/61 Noosa Springs Drive, Noosa Heads, Qld 4567

A superlative albeit handsome residence offers a beguiling blueprint which looks beautifully to the past and future for its design credentials, by cleverly combining Art Deco's eye-popping curvaceous lines with lavish spaces, timeless style, and never leaving glamour at the door.

Designed by Paul Clout, it is on par with excellence with a northerly aspect, views from most rooms, is surrounded by tranquility, and has a 36m golf course frontage, known also as a verdant low maintenance back garden, which seemingly melds into the 5th and 7th greens and lake of the Graham Papworth-designed 18-hole world class Noosa Springs Golf Course.

Beyond the driveway, the gatehouse entry has a granite-paved walkway with giant tropical crab claw heliconias and evergreen frangipani. Open the massive timber-framed glass paneled pivot door, and a tease of terrace and golf course views is instantaneous.

Along the hall and central to the residence, is an extremely generous, lofty ceilinged living/dining space with timber atrium, drenched with natural light, a fireplace with sandstone feature, and curved walls of glass making seamless connections to the expansive north-facing sun and alfresco terraces where entertaining options are numerous. Also notice how the dazzling luminescent pool parallels with curves, has an infinity edge on the golf course side, and is framed by mighty Bangalow palms.

Looking for a change of pace after a game of golf or a swim, the games room is kitted out superbly with a snooker table and hood-style lighting.

Those with a serious culinary passion will be enamoured with the galley-style designer kitchen. It has granite-topped cabinetry including a long island bench with timber 'apron' for casual meals, and also captures the essence of Art Deco. The upper cabinetry is glass-fronted, the pantry is walk-in, there's a window-to-garden splashback plus a bevy of premium appliances including three ovens, and let's not forget the outdoor kitchen has an integrated barbeque.

When it comes to slumber zones there are four oversized beautifully appointed and carpeted bedrooms. Downstairs past the lounge/office space in the north wing, and stealing the limelight is the premier super-size king suite with plantation shutters, access to the terrace, fashionista-style walk-in robe, ensuite with bathtub to drink in the view of the golf course, two-basin granite-topped cabinetry, separate shower, also separate toilet and bidet.

Take the grand curved staircase with granite treads and mezzanine/timber walkway which looks over the golf course and lakes and has a bedroom wing either side. Southside are two king suites, one with a terrace overlooking the course and wrapping two sides, and each with a walk-in robe and ensuite. Northside the super king suite also has a terrace wrapping two sides with northerly views over the fairways plus a walk-in robe and ensuite.

There's volumes of storage throughout including the laundry room and two-car two golf buggy garage with epoxy flooring.

"The Palms is part of Noosa Springs, a very smart residential gated estate with a world-renowned Graham Papworth-designed 18-hole golf course with nine spring-fed lakes and 72 bunkers, ostensibly in your garden," comment Tom Offermann Real Estate agents Patrick Sherwood and Clare Sherwood, adding "also surrounded by community-spirited residents who prefer privacy, peace and tranquility, appreciate 24-hour security and inspired architecture.

"It's an easy stroll to the Noosa Springs Golf and Spa Resort's Pro Shop, club house with its restaurant and function facilities, tennis courts, fitness centre and award-winning day spa.

"However, you don't have to play golf to live here and appreciate the natural environment with its myriad koalas, kangaroos and birdlife such as black swans plus flora and other native fauna. Another big plus is its proximity to everything that makes Noosa Heads one of the most popular holiday destinations in Australia."
