8 Boreen Parade, Boreen Point Waterfront - "The Boat House" NEW LISTING
Price: A$599,000
Bedrooms: 2 Baths: 1 Other: 30m to waters edge, original old boat shed, wide frontage, balcony, garden Sustainability Declaration: Available on request from agent
Comments: Many pictures have been taken of the old shacks that remain in this once quiet fishing village, and this property is one of the favourites and one you tend to drool over in magazines. On the waterfront opposite foreshore reserve and park and with stunning views of the lake, this original boat house has been converted into an ideal getaway or retreat, an inspiring property to thaw out, relax and watch the boats go by.
With 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, all kitchen facilities including a walk in pantry, open plan living, and a covered verandah at front, everything is in place to swing open the big doors, plonk down and delight in this ideal location. The interior design follows the traditional blue and white boat theme throughout and is casual and very refreshing. A recent addition of the 2nd bedroom as a separate cabin for the kids continues the theme. With an extremely rare 34m wide frontage, there is so much scope to add pavilions/pods to increase living spaces; or to even build afresh. The block is 645sm and only 30m to the water, with gentle elevation toward the rear out of the flood zone and never to be built out water views. There is power, septic and water storage in place on site.
Those with vision recognise the future direction of this unspoilt coastal village, only 25 mins by boat or car to Hastings Street, Noosa; 15 mins to Tewantin, 1.5 hrs to Brisbane or 45 mins to Maroochy Airport. Surrounded by Lake Cootharaba (Queenslands largest inland tidal salt water lake and abutting narrow coastal dunes and the ocean) the Great Sandy National Park and rural acreage preservation zone, there is a very limited supply of properties in the village precinct and even less on the waterfront. Boreen Point is the only residential settlement on Lake Cootharaba (‘the lake’). It's a playground for young and old, with International, National or State sailing championships on the lake annually, a variety of water sports, fishing and swimming, and a vast array of social and community activities to join in, plus the fabulous historic Apollonian Hotel (‘the pub’) – Boreen Point definitely makes for an idyllic lifestyle where our environment and the community matter.
Hosting the recent ‘Floating Land’ 2 week art & cultural festival, Boreen Point is central to the Noosa Biosphere Reserve and the Noosa River system and is part of the former Noosa Shire, now an Iconic Place. A recent environmental study found ‘the Noosa region is one of the most remarkable places to live on the entire planet’. You should take the time to explore this remarkable and rare coastal environment before it is truly discovered. This property would ideally suit conversion to a permanent home (fast growing trend); would be an ideal holiday home for one or more families buying together; and would make and excellent holiday renter in between times (view our holiday listings - another growing trend).
Waverunner Boat & 4WD negotiable in the deal. Please contact Rhonda at Boreen Point Real Estate for an immediate inspection of this delightful property or an informative discussion on the local area and the properties available for sale. Also, in the current Summer Edition of ‘Salt’ magazine there is an excellent pictorial essay on Boreen Point, this ‘Boat House’, the local surrounds and me!

7 Boreen Parade, Boreen Point Charming provincial terrace house on the waterfront
Price: Expressions of Interest Sought Around $1.0Million
Bedrooms: 3 Baths: 2 Other: Rare waterfront property, extensive lake views, 3 levels, unique home Sustainability Declaration: Available on request from agent
Comments: This unique freestanding terrace style home sits on a 336m2 waterfront block on the eastern most tip of Boreen Point on Lake Cootharaba. Its 3 levels combine via a spiral staircase to offer 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, separate living spaces, kitchen with pantry and extensive covered verandahs on each level which all have picturesque views over the lake.
The ground level is closed off regularly as a one bedroom self contained lovers retreat, where guests succumb to the magic of the lake and the provincial interior design. For the duration of their stay they can slow down and appreciate the sensual pleasures of water, earth, comfort and nourishment in this peaceful, idyllic environment. The upper levels do then convert to a 2 bedroom, 2 level apartment with full amenities and its own separate entrance. This arrangement can provide the ideal scenario to welcome guests or visitors, whilst you enjoy your privacy upstairs. Alternatively it would make an ideal artists retreat utilising the ground level as a studio space or a workshop/office for the professional or indeed anyone who needs peace and privacy in a separate area with full amenities. It is currently operated as a guesthouse, so this trade could be continued or the entire house could function easily as a permanent family residence or holiday home.
This house is beguiling – block rendered and timber construction, iron roof, terracotta tiles throughout, French doors, louvers, timber decks, exposed beams, white washed walls, fireplace, modern kitchen and bathrooms - it entices yet calms; proffers rest, study, creativity and fun. Its charm is further enhanced by its rare position on the lakefront where an extraordinary light reflects from the ancient boulders and native landscape that surrounds the property and from the trees that travel all the way to the waters edge and compliment the stunning views of the lake beyond.
How uncomplicated life could be in this unspoilt lakeside village in the heart of the Noosa Biosphere Reserve that is yet to experience its well deserved capital growth. Only 20 mins to the cosmopolitan atmosphere of Noosa on excellent roads, or even better take the boat down the river to the ocean in 40 mins. Village services include Lake Cootharaba Sailing Club; the famous Apollonian Hotel; General Store; Galleries; The Goose Café; Cooloola Boat Adventures; Kabi Golf Farm and Boreen Point Real Estate.
It is always a pleasure to come home to the never ending story by the lake where one can drift uncluttered and celebrate life's simple pleasures.
Expressions of Interest are sought to purchase this unique property from Buyers looking in the $1 million price range. Inspection by Appointment only.

48 Woongar Street, Boreen Point What a top spot - rare and sought after
Price: A$790,000
Bedrooms: 3 Baths: 1 Land: 505 sq m (approx) Other: Elevated with lake views, inground pool Sustainability Declaration: Available on request from agent
Comments: Prime north facing 505m2 block with 2 street frontages opposite the lake with an elevated 3 bedroom renovated cottage, swimming pool and lake views.

The cottage is charming with open plan kitchen/dining/lounge opening onto the covered north facing verandah. French doors in the main bedroom and twin room also access the verandah and a further single room all provide adequate accommodation for a family. A perfect beach or holiday house and very easily lived in as is or happily amenable to changes or additions. The swimming pool is a treat after a day on the lake, and a separate cabin for living/writing/painting?
Look around Noosa and see if you can find anything like this opposite the water for this price. Look around Boreen Point and see what’s happening to the real estate. It’s a major discovery for anyone after an unspoilt environment, surrounded by a massive moody salt water lake, being part of the Noosa River system, a National Park and rural hinterland acreages. There is limited opportunity only in this village, and this one is one of the best. The lake is at the core of resident activity for swimming, sailing, canoeing, fishing, wind surfing and the village provides all the amenities you need with café, general store, galleries, and the famous Appolonian Hotel. You want to go to Noosa. Go by boat or car in 20 minutes. Its that close.
Get in before the prices take a hike and the place gets discovered and indulge in the lifestyle offered in this outstanding locality.
