Imagine having a cool $865 million to play with. Th at’s the price an anonymous Russian businessman just paid for a property on the French Riviera. He not only managed to blur the lines between luxury and reality for us humble folk Down Under, he set a new world record and has offi cially made his new home, ‘Villa Leopold’, the world’s most expensive property. It kept us entertained in the offi ce all week as we bantered about what $865 million could buy you in comparison and you can see some of our results on page 43. It would defi nitely buy every single property featured in this edition of My Property Review (and many more editions to follow!). Th is week’s MPR is bursting with everything real estate on the Coast. Read our series fi nale on migration to the area and fi nd out about ‘Brickville’, – the name chosen for the place we now know as Kunda Park. Th ere’s the latest information on the stamp duty reduction and plenty more in here to keep you entertained until next week.

My Property Review | August 29, 2008 5


When we think of migration, we usually think of newcomers arriving from foreign countries. But the majority of migrants to the Sunshine Coast don’t cross the oceans to get here. So what’s behind these trends, and will they continue? Julie Gatehouse continues Part 2 of My Property Review’s series on migration.

In the six years to June last year, the Sunshine Coast’s average annual growth rate was 3.5 per cent. Th at’s just 0.1 per cent behind the Gold Coast. Not bad, when you consider that

according to the Australian Bureau of Statistics, three western areas of the state actually recorded negative growth.

So who are these newcomers and why do they like our Coast so much? Latest fi gures put them into three categories. As you would have read in part one of our migration report, people from overseas account for about eight per cent of the Sunshine Coast’s migration and the rest come from interstate (20 per cent) and intrastate (72 per cent).

“People forget about these large numbers coming from within,” says Jean Hamer, chair of the local branch of the Real Estate Institute of Queensland.

“Th ere has always been a natural migration from Brisbane up to Caloundra, Noosa and Maleny. When I fi rst came here [42 years ago], Buderim was overrun with country people

Jean says the new wealth of western farmers aft er the rain and miners aft er the boom is also starting to penetrate into the Coast. “Now things are getting better for rural people, mums and dads are coming off the property and buying here,” she says. “A lot of people have worked hard for a reasonable amount of money and this is where they wish to live. But they’re not retiring to a rocking chair. Th ey want to be active – going for walks on the beach, playing golf and contributing to our community.”

Younger families and couples are also making the move to work in our thriving building and service industries, or to establish new businesses and lifestyles in a fantastic environment. Jean predicts new investment will come from high-earning mine shift -workers who want to set up their families on the Sunshine Coast.

Perth-raised Michael Mammana, 32, lives in Richmond, NSW. He recently bought an investment property in Mountain

retiring from Toowoomba, the Darling Downs and out west.Th e Coast’s sea-change and tree-change options continue to

attract people from our backyard and over the border. “Th ere’s a

great community of people here from the Townsville region,” says Jean. “And those from further north decide their summers are a bit too hot or there’s not enough employment.”

Southern migration had died down, but in the past few months, I’ve

noticed a jump

They’re just aroundthe corner

6 My Property Review | August 29, 2008


‘Brickville’ has a less than grandiose ring to it, but it was almost a Sunshine Coast suburb.

Th e name was abandoned not because of its industrial revolution overtones, but because of its inaccuracy, and instead, the new manufacturing zone near Maroochydore became known as Kunda Park.

Th e story begins in the late 1960s, when Maroochy Shire was fi rst beginning to spread its wings. As the fi rst development began to get underway, more industry was being attracted to the area in response to a growing demand for housing and construction.

Shire chairman of the day was Eddie De Vere, who had to start thinking about where these noisy and oft en dusty industries would go. Th e fi rst Maroochy Shire Town Plan wasn’t gazetted until 1973, so there was no town plan to defi ne land use.

Geoff Pike, the father of Olympic boxer Benny, approached Councillor De Vere about the possibility of starting heavy industry in Maroochydore. Realising that industry would never be well accepted on the coastal strip, Eddie began looking for a suitable location further out of town. He settled on the cow paddocks west of Maroochydore, just beside the road that was a major connector to the Bruce Highway and Nambour.

Th e location was considered ideal, as it was readily accessible to Buderim, Nambour and Maroochydore and wasn’t on top of any residential areas.

Without a town plan, the next best thing was to give it an industrial zoning. Th is unoffi cially set it aside so that anyone coming into the area would know that it was to be used for industry.

Because concrete block manufacturing industries were among the fi rst to be established, it was decided that this new industrial area would be called Brickville. Th is, however, upset the industries because they were making concrete blocks, not bricks, and there wasn’t a kiln in sight.

Th ere must have been some public discussion about the naming, as a resident called Eddie with a suggestion. Th e local Aborigines had always called the palms growing prolifi cally in the area ‘kundas’. Councillor De Vere decided he had a name for the industrial estate and Kunda Park was born.

Geoff Pike gave his name to the street at the main entrance to the new estate and manufacturing plants continued to spring up on the northern side of Maroochydore Road. By the 1980s, the few houses that had been on the southern side of the road were gone and have long since been replaced with more industry, and expansion also continued west.

As a result, the early town plans recognised the need to confi ne industry to its own area and Kunda Park was immediately earmarked for the purpose.

Th e number of factories in the shire trebled in the decade from 1973, most of them in response to the growing local demand for materials. Importantly, they also created jobs, as the slow rate of industrial development had been identifi ed as contributing to unemployment problems in the Maroochy Shire in the early 1970s. Even in 1988, manufacturing still made up only nine per cent of the shire’s employment.

Industrial zones have since grown and prospered at Yandina and Forest Glen.

Getting inthe zoneMaroochy’s founding fathers looked to some cow paddocks to solve a problem, and Kunda Park was born.

Creek. “We settled [through Elders] in January and within two weeks it was tenanted,” he says. “Th ere’s such a high demand here. I was looking in Sydney but it’s quite expensive and I wanted to purchase a property for a long-term investment in an area where I want to live with my wife Lisa, although that’s a long way off ,” he says.

Michael is an RAAF communicator, “which entails moving every three years”. He appreciates that the Coast has a warm climate, great beaches, a casual atmosphere and is not overpopulated. “It is a bit like Perth, but smaller,” says Michael, who also owns property in that city, but adds that the Coast’s accessibility to other eastern states is an added bonus.

Loren Wimhurst of Ken Guy says the bulk of her agency’s buyers are locals, Brisbane residents or other Queenslanders and expatriates “but with the top-end properties, for the fi rst time in two years, I’ve noticed a steep increase in inquiries from other states”.

She adds, “Southern migration had died down because people had trouble selling their properties, but in the past few months, I’ve noticed a jump.”

She says a changing of the guard on cattle and sheep stations out near Goondiwindi means more couples in their 50s and 60s are leaving the properties to the kids or selling up and moving to the Coast, particularly into waterfront locations. “Th ey’ve worked so hard and it’s their dream to come here,” she says.

Th e Coast’s excellent educational sector is a plus for mining-town residents, says Diana Davidson, of Elders. “Th ey’re buying here for the future when their children are ready for

education,” she says, adding that intrastate retirees are also attracted to our big hospitals and medical facilities.

Diana’s Nambour offi ce reports lots of inquiries for lifestyle properties from Brisbane’s leafy western suburbs – “up to 10 acres, $500 to $600,000”. Western Australians are aiming for luxury homes on the range. Some business people happily commute to Sydney or establish their companies or factories here to reduce manufacturing costs.

All of these lifestyle and economic factors continue to draw people to the Coast, underpinning our healthy property market. Industry experts predict more of the same in the future, but caution that we must not forget to tackle the impact on infrastructure, local amenities, housing and the labour force.

Michael Matusik’s July snapshot analysis reported: “Net immigration reached a record high of 184,500 last year, accounting for 55 per cent of Australia’s overall expansion in population. Our annual immigration intake is likely to reach 227,000 within 10 years or so. About 70 per cent will take place in our capital cities, but over 85 per cent if you include coastal fringes such as the Sunshine and Gold coasts, Wollongong, Newcastle and Geelong.”

Maleny resident Michael Davoren, of 2bid2.com, also predicts migration will stay strong for the next few years, with the Sunshine Coast now a commercially-based region rather than just a holiday destination. “We’re a far more well-rounded place than we were years ago, which makes it sustainable for when times get tough,” he says.

“South-East Queensland does not have an automatic right to continue getting these big benefi ts from migration,” he warns. “If people can’t easily aff ord to move here, they will stop coming. It’s not an immediate issue for the Sunshine Coast because we have a good range of diff erently priced properties, but we need an easing of the planning process – which should happen with the new regional council – along with freeing up more land and encouraging developers to have a crack at it. Th at’s crucial.” He says migrants from Sydney and Melbourne may be the fi rst to feel the pinch.

Another litmus test is employment. “We need to keep an eye on it – look at the airlines and companies starting to wind back a bit – because if young people move here they want to know they’ll get a job,” he says.

Finally, the continuing fl ow of newcomers relies on adequate infrastructure. “All levels of government must support it, but they have failed so far,” Michael says. “Everything that we see as an issue here – health, education, roads and water – must be addressed.”

He adds that raising the Coast’s profi le internationally will also be helpful. “When I say ‘Maleny’ or ‘Sunshine Coast’, people still have only heard of two things – Noosa and Australia Zoo,” he says with a laugh.

Population at a glance

Caloundra’s estimated resident population at June 30 last year was 96,140, a rise of 2892, or 3.1 per cent, on the previous year.

Maroochydore had 157,238 residents, a rise of 4574, or three per cent. Noosa’s was 49,672, a rise of 459 people, or 0.9 per cent.

These fi gures were taken before the Sunshine Coast Regional Council was formed from the three local government areas in March, and when Noosa was trying to restrict its population growth.

Brisbane’s one million residents grew by only 1.6 per cent.

Queensland’s total population was 4.19 million people, with two-thirds living in the south-east.

Buyers entering the property market for the fi rst time will experience some fi nancial relief thanks to the latest changes to the Duties Act.

by Paul McHugh

Stamping out stamp duty

The fi rst home-buyer transfer duty exemption

will be increased from $350,000 to $500,000 under amendments to the Duties Act to take eff ect from Monday 1 September. Basically, this means that buyers who are purchasing their fi rst homes will not have to pay one cent of duty on the purchase of a house or unit up to the value of $500,000. Th is is provided the contract is entered into aft er

1 September this year. Th is change represents a saving of $8,750 for the purchase of a $500,000 property when compared with the current rates.

Statistics coming from the Real Estate Institute of Queensland show that more than 60 per cent of house sales and 75 per cent of unit sales on the Sunshine Coast last year to March 2008 fell under the $500,000 bracket, so this stamp duty

lift will be a welcome relief to home buyers entering the property market for the fi rst time.

Th is follows on from earlier reductions in transfer duty for all home buyers up to $1 million and the total abolishment of mortgage duty from 1 July 2008. Hopefully we will see this

trend of reducing and abolishing the long list of inequitable and ineffi cient state taxes continue in the future.

Many young Queenslanders have been locked out of the property market in recent years simply because values have risen beyond their reach. While these changes may not totally solve the aff ordability worries of many fi rst home buyers, it is a welcome move in the right direction. Let’s hope interest rates follow suit.

Paul McHugh is a partner at Th ompson McNichol Lawyers.

The changes are bound to ease the affordability issue

for f rst home owners. This, combined with the f rst home-owners grant, will have a positive effect

on the entry-level property market

Loren Wimhurst, Ken Guy Maroochydore

opinion

“

First home buyers will not have to pay one cent of duty on the purchase of a house or unit up to the value of $500,000

“ “The changes to the stamp duty rules will undoubtedly have a

positive effect on the market at the bottom end. With talk of future income tax cuts, things are looking

up for the property market Paul Price, Henzells

ACTUAL VIEW



Cotton Tree

T he best of both worlds:Positioned at the mouth of the Maroochy River and by the shores of Maroochydore Beach, Cotton Tree is nestled happily between the ocean and the river. This quiet pocket of Maroochydore offers a host of holiday options, from fi ve-star apartments to family camping – its two campgrounds are a drawcard for holiday-makers.

W hat’s in a name?Cotton Tree takes its name

from the native trees that line the Maroochy River shoreline.

Cosmopolitan Cotton Tree:While the area is still renowned for its sleepy village atmosphere, Cotton Tree has stepped up in the cosmopolitan stakes, with a variety of high-end fashion boutiques, retail outlets, small businesses, cafes and restaurants proud to call it home.

Area profi le and population:It’s not an offi cial suburb, but an area in Maroochydore. In 2006, the population of Maroochydore was 13,715 with the predominant age group 20 to 29 years.

Things to do and see:Cotton Tree is home to the Maroochy Surf Club, the local library, waterfront swimming pool, lawn bowls, sporting fi elds, quality shopping and dining and the local parkland. This parkland area recently received a multimillion-dollar facelift with new pathways, playground equipment and barbecue facilities. Maroochy River offers up solid fi shing year-round. Cotton Tree’s eclectic Sunday markets, held on King Street, are popular with tourists and locals.

Median house price:The median price for houses in Maroochydore at the beginning of 2007 was $375,000, however, the area features a wide range of property types including free-standing homes, duplexes, townhouses and apartments. Prices in 2007 varied from $240,000 for a two-bedroom townhouse to $3 million for a luxury high-rise apartment. Currently the median sale price of a house is $457,500.

Joining this boys’ club was never going to be easy, but builder Sam Sheppard’s determination has her not only surviving, but thriving. She is successfully making her mark on the Coast, one custom-designed home at a time.

I know being a female in the building game is unusual, so I decided to really focus on that and use it as our point of difference, which has worked

“

”

Sa

Sam Sheppard is not your stereotypical builder. For a start, Sam is Samantha – a successful, intelligent woman brimming with personality, charisma and style.

Th is fi ve-foot-eleven blonde is also obsessed with all things real estate, but there’s not a pair of steel-capped boots or a plumber’s crack in sight when you’re with her.

As managing director of the Buildmore Building Solutions Group, the 38-year-old has had to work hard for many years to make her mark in what is traditionally a man’s world. She was recently acknowledged for her success with the 2008 Women in Building Award from the Queensland Master Builders Association (Sunshine Coast) and will soon contest the state awards.

So how did a woman penetrate the traditionally male occupation that is building? Escaping the Melbourne cold, Sam arrived on the Sunshine Coast when she was just 16. Soon aft er, she met her future husband, a cabinet-maker, who taught her the tricks of the trade and within no time the two were running a successful cabinet-making business. “I didn’t ever do a formal apprenticeship as such,” Sam says, “but just got out there and got stuck into it. I guess I learned by doing.”

Instead of shying away from the ‘lady builder’ tag, Sam decided to embrace her looks and femininity and use them for her business. Buildmore was launched in 2002, with the support of Sam’s partner, Buildmore construction manager Peter Hinton. “I know being a female in the building game is unusual,

her sub-contractors to embrace. Buildmore will build between 12 and 15 custom-designed homes this year. Next year Sam hopes to increase this to 20, but she is committed to manageable growth.

Sam’s passion is real estate and over the years she has built an impressive investment portfolio, personally and through the Buildmore group. She currently has one of her Shelly Beach properties on the market through Ken Guy Maroochydore, and as a licensed builder and real estate agent, she admits it’s a challenge fi nd a balance within her property portfolio. “Th e builder in me wants to get in there, buy, sell and make some quick money,” she explains, “but the investor in me knows that I should be keeping my property for long-term capital growth.”

Sam’s other passions are gardening and renovating, as they enable her to draw on her trade skills and get her hands dirty.

When Peter and Sam purchased their family home on the Esplanade at Golden Beach in 2001, Sam knew the 32-year-old renovator’s delight would require a lot of work. “Pete and I did most of the renovation ourselves, which took fi ve long months,” Sam says. “While the stairs and the fl ooring are original, we pretty much rebuilt the rest of the house and did all of the painting and tiling.”

Sam’s gregarious personality is refl ected in the home. Featuring lots of rich, vibrant colours, unique furnishings and textured feature walls, the four-bedroom, two-bathroom house has been transformed into the perfect family home for Sam,

so I decided to really focus on that and use it as the point of diff erence, which has worked really well,” Sam says.

Sam’s strategic purchase of a bright yellow Buildmore-branded Hummer has also added to her profi le. “I have become the ‘builder-chick’ in the yellow Hummer, which I think is fantastic as people always know who I am,” she says.

While it’s been a while since Sam picked up a tool and actually worked on a building site, she is hands-on in the

business and visits job sites several times a week. “To run a successful building company you can’t be on the tools all the time – you have to be focused on running the business,” Sam says. “I’m good at what I do as I know how to delegate the right jobs to the right people, and I am focused on the business of building, such as marketing.”

Sam recently completed a diploma in environmental sustainability and intends to use this new-found knowledge to reduce waste on her job sites, a cause she will be encouraging




Sam has downed tools to build her business.

Eight steps to a stress-free buildPlanning on building your own house? It’s an exciting time, but if things go wrong your dream home can turn into a nightmare. Keep your plans on track with our eight building tips.

Follow these eight tips and hints and you’ll be well on your way to building a happy home, without the headaches. “ “

Selecting your builder is the most important decision you will make in the entire

process, so don’t do it lightly. Research your builder and spend lots of

time with the one you choose, so that you can be sure you trust each other. Th roughout the build, keep the lines of communication open.

Get ready to research

1Th e planning process can take as long as the actual building. Don’t rush the planning stage or you may live to regret it. Take your time, work with the builder and/or designer and make sure you’re 100 per cent happy with your new home on paper, before signing off on the plans.

A matter of time

2Do you have a start date in writing? Make sure your builder commits to a start date before signing your contract or all that careful planning could turn out to be a waste of time. Honest builders will happily commit to a start date.

Make a date3

Council approvals can take a long time and waiting for them can potentially throw your entire construction

timeline out, so make sure you and your builder allow plenty of time for approvals for

add-ons such as pools.

New and approved

4Ask yourself if you really know

what is and isn’t included in the price of your new home. Make sure you understand every little inclusion, as the extras can quickly add thousands – or even more – to your fi nal bill.

What’s included?

5Don’t be afraid to ask for onsite meetings with your builder. As

long as you’re not pushy, they’ll be happy that you’re involved and by meeting onsite you’ll be able to identify any problems early enough to have them fi xed.

Meet and greet

6

It’s simple – don’t build without legal advice. Murphy’s Law dictates that if you don’t get advice,

you’ll need it and if you do, you won’t. So don’t take the

unnecessary risk.

Law and order 7Both parties should get everything that they agree to in writing to avoid potential problems or even legal action. Better to be safe than sorry – so if in doubt, write it out!

Get it write 8

feature

Peter and their children (Sam has three sons who live with them and Peter has four children). Th e house also features front and back verandahs, outside decking and spa and an impressive garden, which doubles as a nursery for the Buildmore business.

So why did she choose Golden Beach to call home? “I’ve lived in Caloundra since I moved to the Sunshine

Coast 21 years ago and I had been watching Golden Beach for a long time, so when this property came on the market we snapped it up,” she says. “Golden Beach is such a nice, peaceful spot, but it’s still so close to the heart of Caloundra. Being across the road from the park and the water is perfect for the kids, as they can go fi shing or throw the kayak in for a paddle any time they like. To drive to and from home along the waterfront every day is truly a blessing.”

When questioned about her success, Sam coyly explains, “I always wanted to be a millionaire as a kid. I even used to say that I was already a millionaire – I was just waiting for the money to catch up.”

Now that’s some serious blonde ambition.

Meet the world’s most expensive property – it’s yours for just $865 million!

The world’s most expensive property, ‘Villa Leopolda’ was recently bought by an anonymous Russian businessman,

who paid around $865 million for his new residence on the French Riviera.

Th e stunning Belle Époque mansion, which is situated on the heights of Villefranche, was bought from Lily Safra, the widow of Edmond Safra, a Lebanese banker who was killed by an arsonist’s fi re in Switzerland in 2003.

Th e same property once belonged to the late Gianni Agnelli, the Fiat motor company tycoon, who used the home mainly to host parties for the likes of Ronald Reagan and Frank Sinatra. If only the walls could talk!

Resting on 20 acres with olive, lemon and cypress trees, the turreted mansion and two guest houses overlooks Cape Ferrat on the Mediterranean.

So, what would a cool $865 million buy?Keen interest: If you put $865 million in a term deposit at the bank (based on current rates), it would earn approximately $1.4 million per week, which equates to around $8350 per hour! And that is not taking into consideration compounding interest.

Shopping spree: You could buy one house in Maroochydore (based on the current median price) every single day for more than six years! Th at equates to more than 2300 houses. Or, you could buy 110 Learjets or a 2008 Ferrari coupé every day for fi ve years

“LIFE AND REAL ESTATE PARTNERS..”Bob & Daphne Smith have recently joined the new Harcourts offi ce in Nambour after respective real estate

careers in the northern beaches in Sydney and in Orange in Central Western New South Wales. They are now

making the often popular move ( for those folk south of the border) to the Sunshine Coast to be closer to their

eldest son and his two boys at Mt Coolum.

Daphne has enjoyed outstanding success in real estate after fi nding the profession later in her life. Starting her

real estate career at Forestville in Sydney she quickly became a much sought after agent – able to negotiate at,

or close to, asking prices for sellers and satisfying buyers needs on a consistent basis with quality property. This

hard working grandmother was consistently best in agency in both listing and sales before she and her husband

Bob moved to Orange in NSW in early ’07. As part of that relocation Bob joined Daphne to form their now

formidable real estate team...

Bob has been successfully selling for almost 36 years. His real estate career has grown quickly as a result, and

he now reckons he can match it with his high fl ying “better half...”, although Daphne may tell another story.

Together they are bringing almost 50 years of sales and marketing expertise to the Nambour offi ce. And better

still they both are country “born and breed” – including spending time on “Aqua Downs” station south east of

Charleville in their early married life.

Come in and say, “Hello”...

to the new enthusiastic

Nambour Real Estate Team –

and put a smile on your face when you

see the selling price of your property.”

hinterland

Two key town centre locations ripe for redevelopment and a railway upgrade are presenting an opportunity for Nambour to advance its standing as the hub of

the hinterland.And Nambour Futures, a group formed to work in

partnership with the Sunshine Coast Regional Council on an innovative plan to revitalise the former sugar town, are not about to let the opportunity slip.

“It’s still embryonic, but those three sites line up right in the centre of town and together present a very real opportunity to move in the right direction,” Nambour Futures chair Simone Pearce says. “We are now conducting workshops on the concept.”

Th e Centenary Square building, which includes the entertainment venues as well as government offi ces, is set to change hands soon, and the sugar mill site remains a blank canvas awaiting a suitable development proposal.

With the Landsborough to Nambour Rail Project to include construction of a double-track railway along a predominantly new route, rail services will become faster and more effi cient, more frequent and reliable. It will better cater for growing population and freight transport – and the Nambour Station is central to both Centenary Square and the mill site. “Th e Town Centre Management Plan is evolving all the time,” says Simone. “It is a work in progress.”

Nambour Futures was incorporated in October last year, although the group was conceived 12 months earlier,

and was formed to give the community ownership of a project planned by the then Maroochy Shire Council to revitalise the hinterland.

“Th e council appointed an expert in town revitalisation, and qualifi ed in town planning and urban landscapes to consider the social and physical aspects of the town,” Simone says. “But it was also necessary to have people who live in the community, who are part of it and who have a passion for it, to be involved. Th is also means that while councils and staff might change, there will be a consistent core group of community stakeholders to give the project longevity.”

About 10 people with a long history in the town, who live or work in Nambour or had some other investment in its future, initially put up their hands to come on board and the association was formed to be independent from, but work in partnership with, the council on giving Nambour a new lease of life.

A memorandum of understanding between Nambour Futures and the council was signed last October and aft er six months of workshops, the Town Centre Management Plan was put together, covering both basic issues such as keeping the streets clear of shopping trolleys as well as more strategic planning.

“We had to work out just what it was we wanted to do in the town,” says Simone. “It’s all about promoting Nambour and giving it some pizzazz. It’s about attitudinal change and celebrating our diff erence from the coastal centres.”

She says the project is still very much in its early stages, but is building momentum and evolving.

“We want to celebrate our diff erences. Th e Coast already has a Sunshine Plaza. Unlike a stand-alone shopping mall, we have a town centre with an eclectic mix of businesses, facilities and services that is a pleasant and friendly-family place. Th e revitalisation of a town centre depends on much more than upgrading the physical environment or beautifying the place.

“You come to Nambour to fi nd something that you won’t fi nd in the bigger shopping centres.”

As the geographic centre of the Sunshine Coast, Nambour has ready access to Caloundra in the south, Noosa in the north and west to the range and beyond.

“Nambour’s catchment goes well past the town centre itself,” says Simone. “It is a niche market and a family community, where people can come in from miles around for shopping, health services, schools and colleges and just about everything else you would expect of a country town that operates as a centre in its own right.”

She says Nambour has to reinvent itself aft er the closure of the sugar mill, which had been the lifeblood of the town for more than a century, and Nambour Futures is still in the early stages of deciding the future image of the town. It’s evolving all the time. We still have to fi nd out who we are and what we are and what our image will be but we are heading towards creating a vibrant town centre.”

The Sunshine Coast’s former sugar town and geographical heart is facing a range of redevelopments, upgrades and new projects, as Nambour’s residents look to the future.

Family home in Woombye

hinterland

BOB Glanville has lived in the same Nambour house for more than 50 years and the town’s oldest real estate agency is

still looking aft er him. Bob and his wife June were dairy farmers in Eumundi when Day & Grimes sold their farm and found them a new home in Coes Creek Road, Nambour on 2 November 1957. When Bob decided to sell the 10 acres around his home a year later, Enterprise Estates, a division of Day & Grimes, bought it and built a new subdivision.

With June now living in Sundale – the James Grimes nursing home – Bob decided to sell up and move to a residential unit in Sundale to be closer to his wife.

Within a week of Day & Grimes taking the listing, it was sold, taking Bob the full circle with the same company. “It was an ordeal having to put the family home on the market aft er so many years,” Bob says. “I had always planned to be carried out of this place. I said if they developed the land opposite me and took away my view I would sell up, but the Baptist Church bought it and I still had my rural outlook.”

When Bob fi rst arrived in Coes Creek Road, it was a narrow track with only a smattering of houses and passed much closer to his home than it does now. A photo taken from his front verandah in 1957 bears little resemblance to the busy road surrounded by houses that it is today.

Th e land had originally been a dairy farm and when the Glanvilles arrived, Bob and his neighbour decided to grow small crops, mainly beans and strawberries. But the paddock where his 25,000 strawberries were planted has been under houses for decades.

He sold all but the home block to Enterprise Estates and with his neighbour’s eight acres added, it became the residential subdivision based around Glenys Street and stretching back from Valley View Street to Perwillowen Road.

“I used to grow small crops all over Glenys Street,” Bob says. “I leave here on 3 October. It will be the end of an era and I am sad to leave. Th e kids say it won’t be the same with the house not being ours anymore.”

hinterland

T here’s a unique lifestyle to be enjoyed behind the beaches of the Sunshine Coast, a lifestyle for those who choose to live in a rare place on Australia’s eastern coastline.

At the very centre of the green behind our part of the blue is Nambour, an old town that emerged as an urban centre in the late 1880s. Since then, it has nurtured its families, providing food, education and services with a vibrant community spirit, a spirit fading along the eastern seaboard as growth merged one town with another. Heaven forbid this should happen to Nambour and its surrounding communities. It is this banding together of community that allows our hinterland towns and villages to off er a genuine alternative to the coast, one which represents an opportunity to live together and be a part of a traditional community. And what really sets our hinterland apart from other hinterland regions is that this quiet and peaceful lifestyle can be had without having to feel isolated.

I marvel at living in Nambour and many share my joy at being just 30 minutes from anywhere – beaches one day, ranges the next and all within an hour from a capital city. Th e major roads connecting Nambour to all points of the compass are improving all the time and the journeys themselves are through some of the prettiest countryside to be found. Nambour also leads the battle with a demon of our times, aff ordability, or more accurately, the disappearance of it. Th is part of the region is one of the least expensive places to live on the Sunshine Coast.

Th e big winners will be those who are ready and able to buy now, while there is land coming on line in several quite diff erent locations. Th e latest new development is Coes Settlement, where level building blocks are available from a little over $200,000. Well done Nambour, for making your contribution to aff ordable living.

Stockland to unveil true Sunshine Coast living

The essence of Sunshine Coast living at its best will be unveiled next month when Stockland launches its exciting new

residential community. Th e master-planned Brightwater is situated on a 215-hectare site on Kawana Way, Bundilla, and is expected to provide more than 2500 homes.

Brightwater will be the last land release of its size in the heart of the Sunshine Coast. Th e much-anticipated community has already received strong interest from Stockland’s registered customers and is expected to start selling quickly with prices starting from around $186,000.

Stockland is putting the fi nishing touches on the new community and will offi cially launch Brightwater at the end of September.

Stockland’s Sunshine Coast regional manager, Nick Wellwood, says home buyers will fi nd the Brightwater community to be a refl ection of their views about life on the coast.

“Stockland has an excellent track record for creating desirable family communities that provide the kind of lifestyle opportunity the people of the Sunshine Coast are looking for,’’ he says.

“With both beaches and bushland on its doorstep, lots of parks and open space, and a saltwater central lake with its own public esplanade, Brightwater will set a new standard for modern and convenient living.

“We have been planning this community for several years and are very excited to beable to bring such an extraordinary project to life,” he adds.

Brightwater has easy access to the Sunshine Motorway and Kawana Way and is bounded by the Mooloolah River and includes two key conservation zones.

Th e fi rst stages of Brightwater feature a range of home sites with sizes between 330 and 964 square metres.

Quality townhouses offer security and seclusion

Toral Park Terraces off ers a unique opportunity to invest in a quality gated community located in prestigious

Buderim. Toral Park Terraces is situated in a remarkable location with convenient access to the Sunshine Coast’s premier educational facilities, numerous sporting and golfi ng venues, medical facilities and the Chancellor Park shopping precinct.

Th e village environment is an easy 10-minute drive to Mooloolaba Beach or the Bruce Highway and about an hour to Brisbane airport. Th e Sunshine Coast University, Matthew Flinders College and Siena Catholic College are within walking distance. Toral Park Terraces takes advantage of contemporary architecture and the homes are designed to maximise natural lighting

and ventilation, while the homes are fi tted out with quality fi nishes, imported appliances and air-conditioning.

Buyers can choose from two-, three- or four-bedroom homes, all off ering a blend of indoor/outdoor living and with private courtyards and exclusive access to a resort-style swimming pool and barbecue area. Designed for easy living, Toral Park Terraces is perfect for the busy professional or young family who use their leisure time escaping to the Sunshine Coast’s beaches and waterways, exploring the markets and bushland, enjoying the colourful cafes, restaurants and shops or just relaxing at home.

Toral Park Terraces represents quality townhouse living in a secure and enviable environment at aff ordable prices.

First settled by farmers around 1870, Buderim gets its name from the native Kabi Kabi word Budderum or Badderam, which is coastal bottlebrush (Banksia collina). From its early beginnings as a rugged frontier, Buderim has become the jewel of the Sunshine Coast and is at the heart of one of Australia’s fastest growing regions.

Th e Sunshine Coast’s rapid expansion is testament to the area’s increasing regional importance, sea-change popularity and lifestyle destination. With an anticipated annual population growth of 8900, the associated requirement for a projected 3500 new dwellings per year will ensure consistent demand for quality residential properties. Th e state government’s commitment to providing the necessary

infrastructure to secure the region’s future is evidenced by the current investment in world-class educational and medical facilities, and ongoing roadwork, transport and water resource upgrades.

Th e continuing development of commercial centres and industrial estates in the region will ensure a sustainable employment base for the region and make the Sunshine Coast an increasingly sought-aft er property investment.
