‘The type of house you probably don’t see too often’: beach home goes for suburb record price

A stylish and progressive home in prime position has sold for a suburb record price at Dicky Beach, as part of a rare swap deal.

No.10 Rooke St was sold for $4.8m after it attracted plenty of interest from local and interstate buyers.

The recently constructed home, built by Paul Currie, is less than 200m from the beach.

Ray White Pelican Waters sales and marketing consultant Jason Jaeger said the residence was ahead of its time.

“It’s a very modern home,” he said.

“It piqued a lot of interest because it’s brand new and it’s the type of house you probably don’t see too often.”

No.10 Rooke Street is ultra-modern.

“It’s one of the better homes around Dicky, Moffat and Shelly beaches.

“It’s incredibly presented – a big, beautiful home with four massive bedrooms and a big media room.

“Everything is handcrafted, like the gates at the front, and there is beautiful sandstone on the walls.

“The home has everything you could think of … there is some really good technology through the home. Everything can be operated by your phone.”

Mr Jaeger said the location was ideal.

“Dicky Beach is one of the most desired locations on the Sunshine Coast,” he said.

“And this property is only a block back from the beach and there are all the amenities around.”

The 607sqm property was sold as part of an uncommon swap deal.

The owners, who had only occupied it for six months, essentially agreed to swap the home for another local property, although settlement has yet to be reached on the other one.

No.10 Rooke Street was involved in a swap deal.

“We were able to negotiate the deal over a short period of time,” Mr Jaeger said.

“Both parties were really good to deal with and we were able to get it across in a nice way, without stress.”

Meanwhile, a property at prized Noosa Waters was sold for $6.83m.

No.17 The Promontory, designed by Paul Clout, boasts five bedrooms, four bathrooms and two car spaces.

The home wraps around a central heated pool and backs on to the waterfront and a u-shaped jetty.
