A “one-of-a-kind” property operating as a hinterland wellness retreat is set to be sold for millions of dollars.

The 44-acre (17.8-hectare) estate at 81 Litfin Road, Verrierdale, boasts multiple accommodation options including a large house, cabins, glamping tents and a retro bus.

It also has a yoga centre, steam sauna, magnesium pool, large lake and walking trails.

David Berns Real Estate sales consultant George Andrews said it was a special place.

“It’s definitely one of a kind,” he said.

“It’s ultra private. It has lots of usable flat land and some incredible views from high points.

“The glamping tents and rustic cabins are amazing, and the lake is beautiful and great for swimming.”

The cul-de-sac property, which is within 25 minutes of Noosa’s Main Beach, is on the market for offers of more than $5.995 million.

The entrance to the guest house.

Dubbed ‘Amara Retreat’, it’s been run as a successful wellness retreat and short-stay accommodation venue, for corporate, local and international clients.

It has been owned, and improved, by a family during the past five years and was designed to “inspire human beings to re-ignite their love for life and nature”.

Mr Andrews said the retreat had become increasingly popular, but the owners were ready follow their passion for sailing and pass the property on to someone else.

He said the retreat could be taken to another level.

“It’s definitely got the potential to be a world-class destination,” he said.

“It’s got beautiful healing energy, so people can really go there and unwind.”

The six-bedroom, four-bathroom Hamptons-style guest gouse is at the property’s heart.

It boasts stunning views of Cooroy Mountain and Mount Tinbeerwah, and it has a steam sauna and therapeutic magnesium pool.

Another house, with two bedrooms, hardwood flooring and country kitchen, is ideal for an owner or caretaker.

There’s also a retro cabin that has hardwood flooring, kitchen, bathroom and bedrooms.

An off-grid cabin is also on the property, with wood burner, cedar windows, kitchen, bathroom and bedrooms.

Three new glamping tents, with private bathroom facilities, look out to a huge lake.

The retro bus has bunk beds and kitchenette.

A dedicated 100sqm space for yoga and workshops comes with kitchenette, bathroom, vegetable garden and views.
