The beachside strip of Hasting Street is known worldwide for its laidback coastal vibe, glow worm tree lights and sophisticated array of sassy boutiques, galleries, cafes, bars and restaurants almost on the sand. In the very heart of it all, just 300 metres to the sand is The Hastings, with one super cool beach house, a sage investor's opportunity with exceptional redevelopment potential.
Think Laguna Bay and Noosa Main Beach on your doorstep, famous Noosa National Park with its Surfing Reserve a boardwalk stroll away and from the north-east facing terrace, ubiquitous swaying palms adding to the verdant outlook from the nor-easterly-facing terrace with comfy outdoor setting.
Inside, the free-standing three-level beach house, evokes a beachy-cool holiday aesthetic with subtle things making an impact. In the open plan living and dining bright white spaces, sandy-hued tiles are drenched with natural light, and indoors makes an almost seamless connection to outdoors.
The monochromatic palette is evident in furniture choices such as grey fabric covered modular sofa, timber coffee table, and white dining table with complementary white rattan-style chairs. The L-shaped kitchen with stone-topped 2-pac/timber fronted cabinetry including the semi-island breakfast bar has timber bar stools, a walk-in pantry plus the latest appliances and fit-out to suit the holiday market.
On the upper level, two large bedrooms have white-tiled ensuites and built-in robes. Downstairs is a study, maybe a guest bedroom as it has a comfy sofa bed and bathroom/laundry combo. There's also a very handy store room.
"Hidden behind the shops of 30 Hastings Street, many walk by not realising The Hastings complex exists," comments Tom Offermann Real Estate agent Jesse Stowers. "Also of note, beach houses 15, 17 and 19 have already been rebuilt; upcoming are 9 and 10 that have been amalgamated into a single dwelling; 16 on the front is a stunning Paul Clout design; and multiple other beach houses are also in motion for upcoming new builds in 2024. The future of The Hastings as a modern vibrant collection of designer residences is very bright!"
"Properties of this type and with such presence, are one-of-a-kind on Hastings Street, and with history of The Hastings complex achieving back-to-back year-round bookings, this is a judicious one-off investment opportunity."
