On a lakefront block overlooking the golf course at Noosa Springs, this contemporary Italian-style courtyard house unfolds slowly from the front gate down the gentle slope to the rear. The double entry gates replace the traditional front door entrance and the visitor is immediately placed into the central spine of the home which is a timber pergola covered walkway connecting the five seperate pavilions that make up the house as a whole.
The self-contained guest two bedroom guest house sits opposite the study and games room pavilions, with each reached via bridges acorss the tiled water feature that cascades it's way through the courtyard. The rear of the home opens out via large expanses of bifold doors to substantial sandstone terraces surrounding the curved lap pool.
The courtyards are planted out with lush landscaping and feature palms to provide that softened shade effect amid the grid-lines of the timber pergolas. A stunning Queensland version of the streets of Tuscany.
