Shining 5-Star Hilton Esplanade, a River House Triumph
It is intriguing from the street with its bold facade, and behind the public persona, River House on 5-star Hilton Esplanade, idyllically north-facing and nestled amongst the serenity and pristine nature of the Noosa River foreshore, is an audacious and eye-catching residence from architect Ken Robinson.Similarly, the vast indoor spaces which tease with idiosyncratic art and design cues, juxta-positioned against creative vision and contemporary brilliance. Reminiscent somewhat of an art gallery, there are dramatic clerestory-height ceilings, strips of translucent perspex along the roof lines, banks of massive auto stainless steel-framed louvres, timber-framed panes and disappearing doors. They naturally invite river breezes indoors and attract sunlight which shadow dances across endless American oak flooring and partially on the wide walls in the living, dining, and lounge areas.
The seamless connectivity to the alfresco terrace broadens entertaining decisions, whatever the reason or season, indoors or out. Also evoking elation is how it coalesces naturally to the beauty of the park-fringed foreshore opposite with a few picnic tables, jetty and unimpeded views to the left, right and beyond.
Commensurate is a big-hearted galley kitchen featuring creamy stone-topped cabinetry including island/breakfast bar, window pane splashback looking out to the garden, designer pendants and high-end appliances. Those with a penchant for culinary creations, will be totally at home.
In the west wing, along a hallway are two generous carpeted bedrooms with sheers and built-in robes. One has views of the Noosa River. The bathroom has mocha-hued floor and wall tiles and double basins set into creamy stone-topped custom cabinetry; a powder room is next door; and across the hall is a laundry room with plenty of storage.
In the south wing, the lavish white carpeted primary bedroom is slightly elevated mezzanine-style with a grand picture window to capitalise on the mesmerising Noosa River view. Exterior louvres adjust to light and shade similarly romantic wispy sheers. The walk-in wardrobe is unstinting as is the ensuite with white oval free-standing bath.
Adjoining is a galley-style office with custom cabinetry.
"With striking views from almost all spaces, everything about the distinctively year-round cool River House on 5-star Hilton, is high and mightily classy," enthuse Tom Offermann Real Estate agents Mal Cox and Jill Goode.
"The much sought-after address is a fishing rod-length or two from the Noosa River where you can picnic, swim, fish from a jetty, kayak, paddle board or go boating. Walk to Gympie Terrace with its bevy of cafes, bars and boutiques, Noosa Marina, Noosa Library, and the Noosa Leisure Centre. Hastings Street, Noosa Main Beach and the Noosa National Park are a short drive away."
