Offers Over $799,000

THE STORY At Offers Over $799,999, this is the kind of property becoming harder to beat.

A two-bedroom duplex with genuine outdoor space, flexible parking and a park behind it, all around five minutes from Mudjimba Beach and Sunshine Coast Airport.

Inside, the open-plan living and dining area connects with a refreshed kitchen before opening to the covered alfresco and private garden. Instead of looking back at another fence, the parkland creates a leafy backdrop that makes the entire home feel more open.

Both bedrooms include built-in robes and air conditioning, while the bathroom retains a separate bath and shower. There is also a separate toilet, full laundry with external access and a garden shed for the things you do not want taking over the house.

The carport is supported by additional off-street parking, giving you room for a second car, small boat or trailer.

For a first-home buyer, it is a way into the market without settling for an apartment. For a downsizer, it keeps the garden, second bedroom and outdoor living while making the day-to-day far easier to manage.

LIFE HERE Walk out for coffee. Pick up the groceries without crossing town. Jump on the bike and be at Mudjimba Beach before the car would normally be packed.

Thursday night can mean following the canal paths into Twin Waters for burgers at Cock & Hen. Maroochydore and Coolum are both within easy reach, while the airport is close enough to make an early flight far less painful.

Then come home, open the back door and let the park become part of the outlook. It is central Sunshine Coast living, but with enough greenery and privacy to forget how close everything is.
