2/22 Stevens Street, Sunshine Beach QLD 4567

Set in the exclusive enclave that is Sunshine Beach, this spacious duplex set over 3 levels encapsulates the essence of Sunshine Coast living with cool ocean breezes on those summer nights and amazing ocean views which can be enjoyed from multiple outdoor entertaining areas.

With the bedrooms positioned on the lower levels, there is easy access to outside spaces to draw in beautiful cooling breezes and encourage a sense of communion with nature. This includes a spacious private balcony leading off the stylish master suite and a patio overlooking the communal pool zone, which is shared with the other half of the two-duplex complex. The focus on seamlessly merging the indoors and out continues upstairs and across the property’s inviting lifestyle zone. Flowing across a dining area, well-equipped kitchen and spacious lounge, the hub also overlooks a large balcony, accessed via full-width doors that frame spectacular views of the suburb’s lush canopy of green, alongside glimpses of the nearby ocean.

Complete with table and chairs and a large barbecue, it’s the perfect place for alfresco entertaining, from family breakfasts to an afternoon of board games or even a nightcap before bed as the day comes to a close. Yet the real showstopper is yet to come, reached via a small spiral staircase that is as much about artful appearance as it is access. The short climb it requires is absolutely worth every step, opening up to a furnished rooftop deck that gifts guests with a stunning ocean panorama stretching from the sandy shores to the azure blue of the distant horizon and from nearby Noosa National Park to Coolum. It’s hypnotic, mesmerising and inviting in equal parts, and an express invitation to walk out the front door and go exploring.

Prestige in its location, the duplex lies just a few hundred metres from the beach, which has a patrolled area, as well as the village of Sunshine Beach and the ever-popular surf club. Take a gentle stroll on the sands, book in for a casual meal or something more sophisticated, browse or buy in the retail outlets, head for the area’s famous surf break or stock up on provisions for dedicated exploration, perhaps of the lush Noosa National Park, where the travel paths cater for all ages and fitness levels.
