A stunning, sprawling manse where the river meets the sea.
2 min
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

Prince Albert House is a stately Federation manor showcasing just how Mosman’s grand architectural past can be expertly coupled with a contemporary renovation.
Surrounded by some of Mosman’s greatest estates, the regal residence once known as Candida underwent a rebranding and a significant renovation several years ago before it last changed hands in 2016 for $10 million.
Today’s vendors, publican Matthew Fallon and his partner Tamara Martin, have engaged Michael Coombs and Tia Naris of Atlas Lower North Shore to market the property with the auction guide sitting at $15.75 million.
Only the fourth owner in the property’s 117-year history, Fallon is one of three brothers behind The Buena in Mosman. Matthew, Luke, and Tim Fallon bought the Middle Head Rd watering hole Buena Vista Hotel in 2015 for more than $13m before renaming it.
Sitting on 1254sq m of estate-like grounds on Prince Albert St, one of Mosman’s most sought-after streets, this stately house is a blend of old-world charm meets modern luxury, coupled with enviable views of the iconic Harbour Bridge and water.
The period property’s transformation was initiated by the previous owner, recruitment boss Jeromine Alpe, who enlisted Giles Tribe Architects for the bulk of the renovations. Fallon and Martin added their own personal touches later on.
“This is a really beautiful house with lots of space. So many Federation homes have pokey rooms and a difficult layout but this one has been really opened up to be a historic home with a very modern floor plan,” said Coombs.
Inside, Prince Albert House has a host of charming historic detail paying homage to its Federation roots including high ornate ceilings, intricate leadlight windows, and grand marble fireplaces. The 21st Century additions like the Calacatta marble kitchen with custom butler’s pantry and seamless connections to the great outdoors are also perfectly suited to today’s must-have Sydney lifestyle.
The large layout features formal living and dining rooms with bay windows, casual family zones and big bedrooms with built-ins. In the primary bedroom suite, separated from the rest of the house on the first floor, there is a walk-through wardrobe to a deluxe bath ensuite as well as two balconies, a sitting area and an adjoining home office. Two more bedrooms also feature ensuites.
Resort style amenities of the Mosman property include a swimming pool surrounded by manicured gardens, sandstone feature walls, a gym with a sauna and ensuite, plus a large wine cellar.
Close to a long list of lifestyle locations, the house is near family-friendly harbour beaches, Taronga Zoo, Mosman’s shopping precinct, coveted schools and city ferries.
Prince Albert House at 13 Prince Albert St, Mosman is currently listed with Michael Coombs of Atlas and is scheduled to go to auction on November 2.
