A “sophisticated and architecturally designed” home with 37 metres of river frontage has entered the Sunshine Coast property market.

The award-winning home, which holds an exclusive north-facing position on a highly desirable island precinct, offers privacy and atmosphere perfectly reflecting a relaxed coastal lifestyle.

Located at 8 Minyama Island, the 1809sqm property captures views over the Mooloolah River to Mooloolaba Wharf.

Built by Gray Construction Group and designed by Morriarchi Architecture, the five-bedroom home is softened by the use of natural timber and glass panel doors and windows to offer a warm living environment.

Next Property Group selling agent Richard Scrivener said the high-calibre Minyama property was exceptional.

“It’s a stunning home – probably one of my most favourite homes ever in my 25 years of real estate,” he said.

“It’s a beautiful, very well-constructed home. It has some wonderful features.

“It’s a north-facing, deep-water Minyama home and probably one of the best blocks on the island, if not the best.

“It was built by a local builder to an extremely high standard. That house will be there for many, many years to come.

“The floor plan has been really well thought out. There are multiple-purpose rooms through the home.”

The home capitalises on the water views.

The entry extends into the main living level of this contemporary home, where the sprawling living room meets the well-appointed kitchen, a butler’s pantry and a sunlit riverside dining room.

There is also a large games room and bar that capitalises on the views over the 20-metre wet-edge pool and Mooloolah River.

“It has the most stunning pool based around Hamilton Island’s,” Mr Scrivener said.

“They wanted to have that Hamilton Island feeling to the pool and every time you go there you just want to jump in.”

There are five double bedrooms all with ensuite bathrooms and walk-in-robes.

The upper level incorporates three of the five bedrooms, including the master suite with an adjacent dressing room, grand ensuite and balcony with water views.

The lift, accessed from the entry, future-proofs the home and gives direct access to the upper-level multi-purpose room that would be suitable for business meetings or a secondary living space.

The lower level offers private outdoor quarters, with a large guest bedroom overlooking the pool and river.

This level also includes a laundry, fully fitted mud room, wine cellar, home gym and a four-car garage.

Behind the secure electric gates there are an additional three car bays for a boat, caravan or extra vehicles.

There is also an expansive over-water deck, 12-metre pontoon and jetty, plus a grassed area.

Mr Scrivener said interest had been strong in the property in the lead-up to it being auctioned in February.

“We have had an awful lot of intertest on the house and all of our buyers for the property are local buyers, so from Brisbane to the Sunshine Coast,” he said.

No.8 Minyama Island is open for inspection on Saturday, February 3, via prior booking from 2pm.

The property will go to auction on Saturday, February 24, at 11am.
