This unique well-appointed, self-contained luxurious dwelling is nestled on an east to west spur of the coastal range & has a special quirky style of its own. With spectacular breathtaking panoramic views in every direction, the location is one of the most picturesque & stunning lookout points on the Capricorn Coast. A short 12min drive north of Yeppoon toward Byfield National Park, it's the perfect getaway spot to chill-out or base yourself to discover everything the Capricorn Coast has on offer. While ideally suited for an individual couple, there are options to comfortably accommodate up to four adult guests. The overall size of the building is approx 100 sq mtrs of floor space (including loft/sunroom space). The layout of the main bedroom/lounge area is similar to a 'studio apartment', with a king bed plus a comfortable queen size sofa bed. The loft/sunroom space (10sq mtrs), situated above the dining room/kitchen area also has a a very comfortable ‘shut-eye’ futon sofa bed which, when folded out, is slightly larger that a king-size single bed. The beautiful sweeping views from 'picture' windows in every room transform throughout the day with the changing light & gorgeous sunsets from the outdoor bbq area provide the perfect backdrop for early cocktails. The loft is also great for early morning cups of coffee or tea and watching the fog drift through the valley. A short 30mtr walk away for the accommodation, guests can also access and enjoy our stunning pool area. Surrounded by volcanic boulders in a tropical landscaped setting of magnificent foxtail palms, it also provides access to The Lookout's tranquil grounds comprised of a hectare of free-form gardens with rambling buffalo grass lawns, shade and fruit trees, and terraced walkways.
