Glimpse of Paradise

If you're partial to dazzling coastal views, this home in Mission Beach will leave your jaw on the floor. It sits between the bay and the ocean, boasting proximity to soft white sands and gentle basin waters in just three minutes on foot. From here, you're also within easy reach of the peninsula's shop-lined artery, Mission Boulevard, brimming with hip cafés and delectable eateries for those post-surf nibbles.

This home impresses from the outset with its multi-tiered concrete facade. The chic, free-flowing interior exudes calm, cloaked in rich, earthy tones and bursts of colour. Large windows usher in floods of sunlight, and we love the open-plan living space, primed for entertaining with plush upholstery, a spacious breakfast bar and a fully-equipped kitchen. Though, the real highlight is the outdoor space. Positioned across three levels, a balcony, barbecue patio, and furnished sundeck offer sweeping views of the bay and the Pacific Ocean's endless blue. After a day of adventure, rustle up an alfresco feast on the grill or enjoy a glass of wine on the rooftop patio as the sun dips below the horizon.
