A property designed and built to showcase the best in Sunshine Coast living is looking for a new owner.

The former “show home” at 28 Tomkins Esplanade, Birtinya, sits on a 664sqm allotment and presents a blend of luxury and resort-style chic, on the edge of Lake Kawana.

It was among the first houses built when development began in the area, which has emerged as one of the region’s most exciting new suburbs.

Birtinya is a burgeoning part of the Sunshine Coast – and Queensland – due to its proximity to the water, beach, schools, new shops, world-class health precinct and entertainment hub.

As a display home, 28 Tomkins Esplanade drew countless visitors including homebuilders looking for the latest looks and finishes.

The property features the best in design and construction with a focus on contemporary elegance and relaxed entertaining.

The four-bedroom, three-bathroom home fits perfectly with the Sunshine Coast lifestyle.

It boasts high ceilings and vast flowing interiors that contain exceptional quality finishes, space, natural light and modern luxuries.

Among its highlights is a chef-style kitchen, with a butler’s pantry and integrated wine cellar, along with a separate entertainer’s bar that connects to the outdoor entertaining area.

Expansive cedar stacker doors span across the rear of the home and link the open interiors to the Balinese-inspired outdoors area, which includes an in-ground pool and heated spa.

The property is in a prime position, beside Lake Kawana.

The king-sized, ensuited master bedroom has its own Juliette balcony overlooking the lake.

Other features include a home office, media room and multiple living zones.

Selling agent Karen Jones, from Adams & Jones, said the residence was first-rate and primed to be sold.

“This quality build is one of a kind and ahead of its time,” she said.

“It was a show home with all the bells and whistles when this part of Birtinya was first established and contains beautiful, high-end features including polished porcelain tiles and western red cedar finishes.

The current owner was ready to downsize and Ms Jones said the home would suit a range of buyers wanting to enjoy the unrivalled location.

“The property has only had one owner and the house looks brand new,” she said.

The chef-style kitchen has a butler’s pantry, wine cellar and entertainer’s bar that connects to the outdoor entraining area.

“It is immaculate and in as good condition now as the day it was built.

“It is a large home with a flexible floor plan, perfectly suited to a family, while also appealing to a couple looking for a high-end, grand residence to retire to.”

Being just a stone’s throw from the Birtinya town centre, Sunshine Coast University Hospital, beaches, schools, walking and cycling paths and an array of cafes and restaurants, everything you need for easy living is right on your doorstep.

Expressions of Interest on this property close on Tuesday, July 26, at 5pm. There is an onsite inspection on July 16 at 10am, or contact Karen Jones from Adams and Jones for more information.

The master bedroom has an ensuite and a Juliette balcony overlooking the water.
