Krause Property Group

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
4th June 2025

Sunshine Coast estate tipped to be one of Australia’s most-viewed homes of 2025 — with features set to appear in The Design Files and Top Australian Homes this week. 

NOOSA HINTERLAND, QLD – A landmark lifestyle property has launched in the Noosa Hinterland, poised to become one of the country’s most-viewed homes of the year thanks to its distinctive design language, cinematic presentation, and the growing national appetite for high-end rural living with architectural appeal.

Featured in upcoming editorial campaigns by The Design Files and Top Australian Homes, this Doonan estate offers a level of design sophistication rarely seen in the hinterland, balancing modern farmhouse elegance with a calm, understated luxury that feels both lived-in and deeply intentional.

Set across nearly 2.5 acres of landscaped, levelled grounds, the property has been thoughtfully curated to evoke a sense of stillness, spaciousness, and refined comfort — both indoors and out.

“This isn’t just a beautiful home, it’s a crafted experience,” says listing agent Kimberlea Krause. “The interiors are warm, expressive, and highly functional, and every detail has been considered with intention. This is a home that resonates on every level "

A Lifestyle Masterpiece in the Hills of Noosa

At once timeless and contemporary, the home’s aesthetic draws on familiar farmhouse elements, gabled rooflines, deep verandahs, French barn doors, while embracing clean forms, rich materiality, and a natural flow between inside and out.

Spanning two storeys, the layout is both expansive and intimate. On the ground floor, raked ceilings and VJ-lined walls frame an open-plan kitchen, dining, and living domain designed for gathering. The kitchen features Ilve appliances, brushed brass tapware, marble benchtops, a full butler’s pantry, and a built-in breakfast nook framed by timber shelving.

Upstairs, the master suite forms its own private retreat with Japanese black-stained timber floors, a Juliette balcony, walk-in dressing room, and an ensuite with soaring ceilings. Additional features include a dedicated media room, a walk-in linen cupboard with laundry chute, a built-in mudroom with ironing station, and multiple generously scaled bedrooms with garden views.

The interiors showcase a refined neutral palette, paired with tactile finishes, shaker cabinetry, rattan vanities, exposed shelving, and natural timber tones that lend depth and softness to each space.

Outdoor Living with a Resort Feel

Outdoors, the home continues its story of laidback luxury. A magnesium mineral pool is surrounded by white stone and exposed concrete, with a hanging daybed and hot/cold outdoor shower adding to the experience. The alfresco kitchen features an emerald green tiled splashback, concrete benchtop, and built-in BBQ, all positioned for seamless entertaining across lawn and pool zones.

Also located on the property is a fully self-contained three-bedroom guesthouse, designed with open-plan interiors, a private courtyard, and optional access to the pool. Ideal for extended family, guests or potential future income, it reflects the flexibility of the estate overall.

• Three 12,000-litre underground water tanks and bore

• Three-phase power for future-ready energy systems

• Drought-tolerant landscaping and passive ventilation principles
