Sophisticated, stylish and always sunny, the stunning beaches, lakes and lush hinterland of the coastal paradise of Noosa<\/a> all lend to its rightful reputation as one of Australia\u2019s most captivating holiday destinations.<\/p>\n

But while a herd of visitors come and go each year to the town peacefully tucked away in the south-eastern reaches of Queensland, there are those who have buoyantly decided on Noosa as their permanent address, in pursuit of the area\u2019s advantageous, carefree lifestyle.<\/p>\n

Noosa is the type of place where you can take a morning dip at a choice of beautiful beaches and wander through stylish boutiques along Hastings Street, all before being served lunch by one of Australia\u2019s leading chefs, says\u00a0Tom Offermann, principal of Tom Offermann Real Estate.<\/p>\n

\u201cNoosa also attracts families who wish for a safe and natural environment, with an amenable climate, top-tier schools and all the necessary infrastructure of a big city, but on a smaller, calmer scale,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n

\u201cEven professionals, business leaders, and entrepreneurs can continue to flourish in their commercial activities here, and when they need to visit a big smoke, the Sunshine Coast Airport is just 20 minutes away, with not a traffic light in sight.\u201d<\/p>\n

As reported in the latest\u00a0Domain House Price Report<\/em>, the median for the collective area has seen continued growth, with Noosa Heads showing a 19.6 per cent jump year-on-year to $1.645 million, while Noosaville recorded a staggering 23.3 per cent rise to $1.35 million.<\/p>\n

Offermann notes how these numbers will only continue to shift, with many more people still selling up in major cities.<\/p>\n

\u201cSea-changers will certainly feel right at home in Noosa, as life here is calm, filled with people who are overly polite, and are never in any type of hurry,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis region just has a way of putting people in a natural state of bliss.\u201d<\/p>\n

Inevitably, there\u2019s a sense of pride that comes with living in Noosa, where residents are happy to join local community groups to make new friends and volunteer \u2013 as did Ross Fisher, volunteer president and life member of Noosa Heads Surf Lifesaving Club.<\/p>\n

\u201cI moved to Noosa 33 years ago with my wife and two young children, directly from the west coast of New Zealand\u2019s South Island, below the Southern Alps,\u201d he recalls.<\/p>\n

\u201cI built up a very successful business before semi-retiring some 20 years ago, and as a surfer and surf lifesaver, Noosa was the standout place to move to in 1989, as it was relatively small with a great subtropical climate, renowned for its surfing points and beaches.\u201d<\/p>\n

Giving a cue to its Sunshine State nickname, Fisher says Queensland has the longest patrol periods in Australia, with the club\u2019s patrolling year running from mid-September to the first weekend in May.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have always thought that, in Noosa, we just roll from autumn straight into spring, as even winter days average at 25 degrees, which are most often still sunny and nice,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor this reason, I\u2019m able to swim all year round, but when there\u2019s a good swell on and the point breaks are working, everyone, including me, is all the happier.\u201d<\/p>\n
