Sizzling Prize for Astute Investor 5-Mins to Hastings Street

Imagine a red-hot investment opportunity in an eco-conscious, renowned architect-designed resort, sprawling on a rainforested hillside, just a five-minute stroll to sophisticated Hastings Street and squeaky white sand of Noosa Main Beach, and seeing turquoise Laguna Bay from the boardwalk to the 477ha Noosa National Park, with its world-recognised Surfing Reserve.

Offering serenity and seclusion, the slice of paradise is a top floor apartment close to the lagoon pool, gym, steam room, also Park & Cove restaurant.

Take the lift or the stairs. Admire the sizeable upgraded open plan living area with its fresh primarily monochromatic palette, modular fabric sofa, timber dining table, accessories and artworks, all designed to mimic nature, which is almost at your fingertips given you're seemingly perched unobtrusively in the tree tops.

Slide-away the bi-fold doors. Indoors become out on both undercover terraces, one on the west side and other southward, with leisure furniture designed for relaxation or entertaining, whatever the reason or season.

The serenity is palpable, there's an alchemy of salty breezes, easy engagement to where koalas call home and delightful choruses from the native birdlife are always on-song. Consider sundowners or even a night cap listening to the creek babbling through the valley, after dinner at the resort's popular restaurant.

The galley kitchen with stone-topped cabinetry including an island breakfast bar, also has views over the rainforest, a pastel grey-tiled splashback and all the necessary premium appliances and accoutrements to entertain friends.

When it comes to dreamtime the premier suite elicits a sigh-moment. It has access to the terrace for a morning commune with nature, sunshine and rainbow lorikeets speeding past. Both bedrooms have walk-in robes and ensuites; one has a spa bath to soak away the blues after a day at the beach.

There's also a fully equipped laundry and powder room.

Adding to the overall appeal of Peppers Noosa Resort, set amongst the surrounding greenery are two pools – one a sublime saltwater lap; the inhouse spa, Stephanie's has luxe-sounding treatments; and at Park & Cove Restaurant, the de-luscious menu with superb dishes featuring a bounty of the region's best ingredients, is the masterstroke of executive chef and local, Andrew Wilcox.

"The climate is sub-topical-idyllic and the natural assets in the region are innumerable," explains Tom Offermann Real Estate marketing agent Chris Miller. "Such as just up from the resort's main entrance is Laguna Lookout, with its stunning sunsets and breathtaking views across the waterways and Coral Sea to the Glasshouse Mountains.

"I have experienced first-hand over several years that apartments in Peppers Noosa Resort are coveted and for investors that's completely understandable. Holiday bookings are year-round and mostly back-to-back. Apartments are highly prized because they provide the perfect opportunity for the first-time buyer, as well as the seasoned investor who understands the buoyancy of the Noosa market.

"Location too is paramount. A buggy ride away from the Peppers Noosa Resort is Hastings Street, simply brimming with designer fashion boutiques, street side and beachside alfresco cafés and restaurants, plus there's the Noosa Heads Surf Club, many say the best seat on the beach aka sheltered north-facing Noosa Main Beach."
