- We've just finished a multiple repeat Noosa Hinterland assignment https://www.realestate.com.au/property/946-cooroy-belli-creek-rd-ridgewood-qld-4563 A
state of the art ridge-line home perched high above the Mary Valley.
Breath-taking views, bush tranquillity, combined with cutting-edge
design and technology. "Simply stunning!", as the real estate agent put
it. Our property presentation skills served us well with the house
going up FOR SALE twice, in 2013 and 2019. Keeping things ship shape and
liaising with the same agency for private inspections resulting in a
successful SALE twice over. The YouTube in the above Noosa Hinterland Assignment link helps to explain why the
first to inspect in 2019 bought the property the very next day.
This Vimeo Video offer an insight on our earlier assignment and presentation of the same property in 2013.
_________________________________________________________ - Prior to here was a repeat lake-side masterpiece, one that perhaps slipped by the architectural eyes of Grand Designs' guru Kevin Mc. Perched above a striking lake in the Noosa Hinterlands, Qld, Australia. Peace is of the essence here, as the sun rises to silhouette neighbouring Mt Tinbeerwah. The owners relocate regularly overseas to their equally striking home in Asia while we hold fort, hillside at Lake MacDonald, Qld.

warmth in Thailand while we exercised our property presentation skills

the property. And yes it did indeed sell.
