About this property

Wilderness House

Summary:

WILDERNESS HOUSE This stunning retreat is perched on top of a hill, adjoining state forest and private parkland. Offering breathtaking 180-degree views of Mt Coolum, Mt Ninderry, Mt Cooroy and the Pacific Ocean.



Enjoy the wilderness, seclusion and absolute privacy, a feeling that you are a million miles from anywhere, yet only just a short 5 mins drive to the quaint town of Yandina and 20 mins to Coolum, this holiday home promises to create your ultimate hinterland experience.



The Space:

Nestled in 11 acres of wilderness, this modern contemporary home was specifically designed to maximise the spectacular views. You will love the abundance of natural light that greets you from the expansive glass windows and bifold doors, looking out to the infinity pool, entertaining deck, mountains and ocean. Creating a seamless indoor outdoor living space.



The property comfortably sleeps 8, is on one level and extremely spacious in design, perfect for families, or even two families or three couples.



Inside "WILDERNESS HOUSE"

→ Fully equipped kitchen with quality appliances, including 6-burner gas stove and oven, French fridge with ice machine, Smeg kettle and toaster, and Sunbeam coffee machine, plus all the essentials, tea, coffee, condiments, foil, glad wrap and more.

→ Seamless indoor-outdoor flow to the deck and private infinity pool, all overlooking the stunning mountains and ocean views, perfect for entertaining or relaxing.

→ Fire pit with panoramic views of Mapleton and the Blackall Range (Firewood only supplied during the cooler winter months).

→ Master retreat with king bed, walk-in robe, air conditioning, private ensuite, and floor-to-ceiling windows showcasing the surrounding natural views.

→ Second bedroom with queen bed, ceiling fan, private balcony and north-facing views

→ Third bedroom with 2 king singles, ceiling fan, and north-facing views

Experience the ultimate blend of privacy, luxury, and nature at Wilderness House, where every moment is framed by breathtaking views and serene surroundings.



Guest Access:

You will have the entirety of the property to enjoy.



Other Things to Note:

Young children would need to be supervised at all times. There are no fences around the home and the risk of falls from the ledge of the infinity pool.



The driveway into the property is winding and steep. There are lights and reflectors on trees to help navigate your way if arriving in the evening.



Interaction with Guests:

I will be available via the app anytime during your stay. My aim is for you to have a great stay.

The house is very impressive. The view is extraordinary. The pool was warm enough even for this old bird to get in, though I had to kick the kids out first. The kitchen had everything we needed. The driveway took my breath away but you gotta work for those views. It was easy to check in and very very comfortable. Thanks for having us.

The most stunning location and accommodation.

I went away for the weekend with 4 other friends and we cannot rate this accommodation any higher. It was even better than the photos. Absolutely stunning location. House was beautifully furnished with the most comfortable beds, and lounges. Kitchen was fully equipped with everything you could want or need and the cleanliness of the home was top notch we will definitely be back again in the future.

A beautiful house with amazing views. A wonderful way to spend the weekend celebrating turning 50. Eumundi Markets & Matsos Brewery only 15 minutes away added to the appeal of the house. Would definitely book again.

Unmatched views with complete privacy.

Staying in such a luxurious and spacious house, has left me completely recharged and ready to tackle the world again. The view from the pool and decking are second to none, with mountains close enough to touch and the ocean in the distance. Morning coffee and evening drinks are made all the more appealing with the comfort of this tranquil hideaway. First class appointments and utilities finish off this property with the finesse one would expect from such a beautiful country homestead.A truly wonderful experience all round.Many thanks to the hosts for their hospitality and the respect for my privacy received during my stay.

Family stay at Wilderness House

We had a wonderful stay with some notable highlights, including the stunning view, spacious layout, comfortable beds, and great appliances. The furniture was also a nice touch, making the place feel homely.However, there were a few issues during our stay. Unfortunately, there was no hot water on the last night and morning, and the gas in the stove was out during that time too. A broken flyscreen to the deck and two faulty wooden blinds in the main bedroom were also minor inconveniences. For older guests, the main bedroom had a very high shower head and a slippery bathroom floor. An anti-slip mat and handrail would improve safety. Additionally, there were no chairs or table in the main bedroom, which could be a practical addition.We also had only one tea towel for the entire visit, and the toilet brush was rusty and broken. While these were minor issues, they did stand out in an otherwise great stay.Despite these issues, we still had a lovely time and would definitely return!

As a Sunshine Coast resident for the past 28 years I know it well. Ask me about our beautiful beaches & pristine natural reserves to our quaint hinterland towns & bustling beachside cafes, restaurants & shopping centres.

With a passion & flair for design & styling, I love to create a space that is warm, welcoming, has great energy & feels like home.
