If you're looking for a peaceful character home surrounded by stunning countryside, it doesn't get any better than this.

57 Whispering Gum Avenue blends the characteristics of a grand historic Queenslander with the high-end features of a modern designer home. This 1910-built, 2017-renovated property looks like it's been lifted from the pages of Country Style magazine.

Situated high in Eumundi's sought-after Rafter Country Estate, it offers tranquility, privacy and expansive views across the Noosa hinterland towards Mount Cooroy. And all within 15 minutes of the coast's best beaches, schools, cafes, breweries and bush trails.

The front entrance porch provides an idyllic first vantage point across the surrounding landscape. It leads into a hallway with breathtaking 4m-high ceilings, honey-coloured hardwood floors and white timber panelling - features which run throughout the home.

The spacious central living and dining spaces encompass picture rail detailing and an open layout which creates a sense of flow through to the outdoor areas and pool beyond.

The adjoining kitchen, with butler's pantry, caesarstone benchtops, Belfast sinks and a five-burner country oven, provides the kind of outlook that makes the washing up a whole lot more appealing.

A large master bedroom boasts more incredible mountain views, ample floor-to-ceiling wardrobe space and a chic retro-styled double sink ensuite.

Then there are three more good-sized bedrooms, all offering landscape vistas, serviced by a sumptuous family bathroom with marble tiling and standalone bath.

A combined laundry/extra bathroom with external access, meanwhile, provides the perfect place to shower off after your pool dip.

The original features of this home combine with absolute practicality. Cooling is ensured through five-zone ducted air conditioning and ceiling fans, while a 9.1kW solar system provides excellent energy efficiency.

Leading out from the central living areas is an extensive entertaining deck linking the original home to a huge contemporary home studio/office. Currently set up as a double office and media room, there's flexibility here to create a work-from-home business, teen retreat or guest accommodation.

The deck extends out to a sculpted 4.5m diameter pool with ledge seating - the perfect vantage point to enjoy sunsets over the mountain.

Below the house is a home gym and double lock-up remote garaging, while at the rear is a wide shaded verandah and a 96m2 astroturfed flat area perfect for kids and pets to play.

Creekside nature trails, tropical planting and a sheltered firepit nook all feature across more than two acres of private gardens, with wallabies and bilbys among the abundant wildlife that calls 'Seabank' home.

The serenity of the whisper-quiet location is only disturbed by the calls of kookaburras, cockatoos and magpies in the surrounding bush.

Eumundi:
Eumundi is famous for its street markets, which run on a Wednesday and Saturday morning. This beautiful hinterland village, with its strong community spirit and laidback vibe, is a 5-minute drive to the Bruce Highway and a 1.5-hour drive from Brisbane. It offers a mainline train service to the Queensland capital and boasts a well-regarded state primary school. It is also within close proximity to several excellent public and private schools.
