Sleek in style and minimalist in design, this award-winning home in the hinterland of Noosa effortlessly combines contemporary features with complete comfort. 

The home’s showcase feature, a gravity defying flat roof, pays homage to a relaxed Palms Springs style, while expansive walls of glass take in unobstructed views over the pool, out to the eastern coastline and down to the hinterland.

Winner of the 2018 Master Builders Sunshine Coast Housing and Construction Award in the Individual Home $1.26 million – $2 million category, the home was created by renowned designer Gerard Smith of Noosa Heads-based boutique design studio Gerard Smith Design and brought to life by builder Dean McEwan of DRM Design & Construction.

Gerard Smith told WILLIAMS MEDIA almost every room in the home takes full advantage of panoramic views from the hinterland escarpment through to the ocean coastline of the Sunshine Coast. 

“The single split storey provides easy living while also maximising the expansive views,” Smith said.

“The home nestles subtly into the rural setting, minimising the visual impact from the street for timeless elegance. Throughout the home, the sense of space and volume afforded by the high ceilings and abundant glazing, together with the high quality finishes and workmanship, add to the sense of opulence, giving the occupants the enviable feeling of being on top of the world.”

The home's elevated position and 1.12-hectare block allow complete privacy as well as a sprawling four-bedroom floorplan that can easily accommodate a large family. 

Dean McEwan told WILLIAMS MEDIA, “The desired design aesthetic and the high quality of finish required meticulous detailing and craftsmanship throughout this home for a fantastic outcome. All of our team at DRM Design and Construction are used to working on challenging builds and are very focused on achieving the best possible outcome for all of our work."

Finished with black timber cabinetry, the designer kitchen features three wall ovens and expansive butler's pantry and opens out to the palatial living spaces complete with a stunning suspended fireplace.

A media lounge, home office, powder room and large laundry with access to a drying court complete the floorplan.

Living spills seamlessly out to a large alfresco area and the award-winning, infinity-edge saltwater pool.

Extra features of the home include a triple-car garage, plus parking for up to 12 cars underneath, as well as remote-controlled window dressings, a 15kW solar system and storage for up to 200,000L of rainwater.
