Set in the idylls of Noosa North Shore comes this heavenly designer residence known as Eden.

It wears the name well with the 1049sqm, 4-bedroom, 3-bedroom, 7-car garaging home set on 1.61 hectares amongst the trees and botanical-like native gardens on one of the largest waterfront reserve parcels on the Noosa North Shore.

The façade boasts modernist, geometric lines, combined with a palette of strategically placed hanging gardens, natural stone, timber, glass – with the water’s edge merely an extension of the front garden.

From the portico and atrium entrance, generosity is the word that comes to mind. Inside, elevated finishes of marble flooring decorate while light pours through the home via walls of glass offering panoramic water and garden views.

Inside, the major living spaces seamlessly open out on three sides to terraces, sun decks, a gazebo and a pool with Balinese volcanic rock tiles.

The ideal entertainer, the kitchen sees an oversized butler’s pantry with a marble-topped island breakfast bar and Miele dishwasher and ovens, a double-height wine fridge, and banks of storage.

The home is split into what can be best described as suites. The ground floor sees a guest suite with sitting room, ensuite and walk-in-robe. Elsewhere, upstairs has a 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom master retreat complete with its own living area – again, complete with water views.

Separate is the north wing. Here one finds the king master suite with wide views of the Noosa River mouth and Noosa Heads. The suite is complete with its own private balcony, freestanding bathtub (part of the open bathroom) walk-in robe, dressing room and dedicated office area.

Only 5-minutes by boat across the river to Noosaville’s Gympie Terrace, and a little further on is vibrant Noosa Heads and its restaurants and shopping.

The listing is with Tom Offermann Real Estate’s Nic Hunter (+61 421 785 512). Price guide: $7 million; offermann.com.au

Emma Stone Asks $26.5 Million for Freshly Renovated Austin Home

The actress and her husband, comedy writer Dave McCary, spent more than three years restoring the house, which is one of the priciest properties for sale in the Texas city.

In 2021, actress Emma Stone purchased a historic estate in Austin, Texas, with a plan to move her family there. Four years later, she has instead decided to put the property on the market.

The actress and her husband, comedy writer Dave McCary, are asking $26.5 million for the newly renovated estate, according to Eric Moreland of Moreland Properties/Forbes Global Properties, one of the listing agents. The 1.25-acre property, located in the upscale Tarrytown neighbourhood, will be among the most expensive on the market in Austin.

Stone and McCary have spent more than three years renovating and restoring the Texas property, Moreland said.

A spokesperson for Stone didn’t respond to requests for comment. Moreland said the couple’s New York business interests have expanded since they started the remodel, and while they hope to live in Austin eventually, it doesn’t make sense for now.

The couple, who are co-founders of the production company Fruit Tree, own a roughly $12 million apartment in lower Manhattan, according to property records. Stone is slated to star in the upcoming contemporary Western film “Eddington.”

It’s unclear what Stone and McCary paid for the Austin property, since Texas is a nondisclosure state . The Georgian-style brick house dates to around 1940, making it one of the oldest estates in the area.

The roughly 10,000-square-foot estate includes a main house with four bedrooms and a two-bedroom guesthouse. The property also has a pool, a hot tub, and a garage with a screening room and entertaining space above.

As part of the renovation, the couple removed, cleaned and reused all the exterior brick. They also reconfigured some of the living spaces, opening the kitchen to the living room for a more modern layout. It took more than a year just to install the millwork in the screening room, said Moreland.

The contractors are now putting the finishing touches on the property, he said.

The “La La Land” actress has a track record of buying and selling her homes for significantly more than she paid. In 2022, she sold her blufftop Malibu, Calif., home for $4.425 million after buying it for $3.25 million in 2018, according to property records.

Last year, she sold her home in L.A.’s Comstock Hills neighbourhood for $4.3 million, significantly more than the $2.3 million she paid in 2019.

Austin saw an influx of new residents during COVID, but many of those are now returning to the East and West coasts, particularly workers in the tech sector.

While the market “has come down to earth a little bit” since the pandemic-era boom, Moreland said, he has seen a number of $20 million-plus deals over the past few months.

Moreland has the listing with colleague Diane Humphreys.
