Bold and bright. Chic and cheerful. Vibrant and welcoming. There are so many wonderful ways you could describe this desirable apartment in the beautiful enclave of Little Cove. But if you had to settle on just one, it would be ‘joyful’. Filled with bright colours that turn up the volume on the scenes and shades of Mother Nature, the budget-friendly retreat has two bedrooms plus one carpark, which can be all important in this popular corner of the world. With two bedrooms decorated with fiery accents of red, yellow and orange, the personality-packed palette flows through to the bathroom – check out those shower tiles! – and open-plan living space, which is thoughtfully zoned for dining and lounging. Here, bold statement chairs spark off a stunning pendant light while mounted surfboards draw the eye away from a striking feature wall. The area is overlooked by a spacious kitchen, which offers room enough for all hands on deck when it comes time to transform the freshest local ingredients into moreish meals. Flooded by warming natural light, the apartment’s interior flows seamlessly out to a full-width tiled balcony, set up for alfresco entertaining with a barbecue, table and chairs. The space, positioned on the ground floor of a boutique complex of four, also offers ocean glimpses through the lush natural landscape. Just a stone’s throw from the beach at First Point, the complex offers easy access to some of the area’s most popular attractions. Hastings St tourist precinct, a retail paradise for shoppers, is also home to world-class restaurants serving inventive and enticing menus. Many of them back onto iconic Main Beach, whose golden sands and azure waters have been the background to many a photograph and firm promise of a return visit. Nearby Noosa National Park is a lush playground for nature lovers and hikers while surfers clamour to test their boards on the surf break and photographers work to capture the beauty of the environment through their lens. When they succeed, it’s a stunning interplay of colour and texture that bewitches and bedazzles. It’s colourful, vibrant and joyful. Just like your temporary home away from home. Pack your sunnies, your sense of adventure and enjoy.
