56 Lorikeet Drive, Peregian Beach, Qld 4573

If you yearn for the moment of waking each day to the sound of white- capped waves rolling onto the beach, the feeling of sand between your toes in a minute or two, surfing the ultimate breaks, and walking the water's edge with kids and dogs, this is a rare albeit serendipitous find. There's a sense of mystique, looking from the street at the lush tropical front garden featuring pots of tree ferns, and statement pandanus astride rocky garden beds to the white walled entry. Open the door to a welcoming expansive forecourt with pots of colour and white louvres on the north and south wall of the guest wing.
Look beyond. This quintessential contemporary beach house exudes barefoot luxury and draws on its strength of character, like a confident embrace. With lofty ceilings, stack back bifold doors inviting salty breezes, sunlight splicing through walls of louvres and shadow dancing across concrete tiles, in oh so wide living spaces which spill seamlessly out to the lawn and garden, also yonder to the coastal native fringed beach pathway.
With a colour palette and whimsical aesthetic mimicking the beachside location, the residence provides maximum cross ventilation during summer, while also having the ability with the NE orientation to bring warmth from the sun in the cooler months.
It was cleverly designed by award-winning Nettleton Tribe Architects, has privacy, minimal maintenance and considered living spaces and accommodation for holidaying family members, who love to run along the cleared beach track with surf boards ready to bust a few waves. Also opening in a seamless fashion for alfresco entertaining on the lawn, with herb garden nearby, is the white galley style kitchen with island breakfast bar, walk in pantry and all the necessary accoutrements an entertainer would love.
There are four bedrooms. Upstairs in the carpeted premier suite, hear waves breaking on the foreshore from bed and breathe in fresh salty summer breezes thanks to the picture window and plantation shutters.

When it comes to excellence in a leisure, pleasure and dream time space, this one has it in spades. It has timber look flooring, a black, red and white albeit fun penguin aesthetic, a wall of white louvers, two large, custom -built bunk beds, built-in robes, hideaway television and space left for armchairs and tables.
The bathroom area has mushroom hued tiles, built-in robe and white single basin cabinetry.
On the ground floor, the north side of forecourt has been specially designed as two guest suites with a two-way bathroom, and both have built-in robes. There's a powder room opposite, also internal access to the two- car garage, storeroom and tool shed.
"There's no denying this property is a rare albeit serendipitous find," comment Tom Offermann Real Estate agents Tim McSweeney and Tracy Russell.
"After 36 years, it's time for the baton to be passed on, for another family to enjoy the immediate exuberance and relaxed holiday-every day vibe, from every aspect. It is very private and is perfectly positioned. Simply walk only a minute via the sandy nature reserve to beautiful Peregian Beach with its popular surf breaks and leash-free doggy areas.
Alternatively take a leisurely 1.5kms walk along the pristine beach to the trendy Peregian Village Square for coffee. This location simply has it all. And more".
