Hastings Park Apartment 1

True interior style is an appealing mix of the delightful, delectable and debonair. It blends the stylish and sophisticated, the chic and comfortable and the fun and functional. And at this appealing Noosa Heads apartment, that delicate balance plays out in just the right fashion, from the fanciest flourish to the smallest luxury.

Stunningly designed and superbly renovated, the three-bedroom retreat lies nestled within a boutique hillside complex at one end of iconic Hastings St. With a thoughtful floorplan spread out across three levels it’s ideally set up for families, friends or a combination of the two.

In the cleverly tiled modern living area that serves as the heart of communal celebrations, rustic and earthy tones flow across the furniture, decorative accents and objet d’art, beautifully married with exquisite timber pieces and inviting textures that work their way from all-natural to soft and silky. Within the space, a cosy living zone flows through to multiple dining options, from a glass-topped dining table to stools pulled up to the breakfast bar. These offer a vantage point over the large gourmet kitchen, superbly kitted out for joint meal preparation and easy clean-up.

As befits its location in the heart of paradise, the apartment capitalises on its spectacular natural panorama with a trio of terraces designed for alfresco eating, entertaining and enjoyment. Touches of luxury extend to a landscaped timber deck and tranquil water feature, with privacy assured by a lush green canopy. Other appealing features include a ceiling void which floods the floating staircase in beautiful washes of sunshine and sleek monochrome artworks, each one telling a story within a single frame.

The jewel in the apartment’s crown is the master bedroom, where the bathroom has been incorporated into the stylish design, strikingly centred by a sunken tub made for soothing and soaking while looking out to the dramatic outdoor surrounds. The other bedrooms and amenities further blend form and function, creating spaces for rest and retreat amid the hustle of holidays.

Guided by the salty coastal breezes, a journey down the hill leads through to the area’s most iconic attractions. For shoppers, Hastings St’s cosmopolitan retail and restaurant precinct is an Aladdin’s cave of wares and wonders, from the latest new-season fashions to beautiful homewares you didn’t know you needed until the instant you spotted them. Then, as your appetite builds, explore the local culinary scene, which has made household names out of not only restaurants, but also chefs and local produce. At many eateries, the menus – with succulent seafood a common specialty – are accompanied by spectacular beach views, drawing the eye across the golden sands of Main Beach to the turquoise waters and ocean horizon beyond. Bring a swimsuit or rashie and answer the call of the water and waves.

Alternatively, go exploring in nearby Noosa National Park or head back to the apartment for a dip in the complex pool – or simply make time for a read and relax on one of those gorgeous outdoor terraces. 

If the very best addresses really do come down to location, location, location, this apartment is paradise found and paradise shared.
