One of the best absolute beachfront positions on Queensland’s Sunshine Coast has been snapped up by a local buyer for $4 million.

The 3 Wilson Avenue property at Caloundra’s Dicky Beach features a classic beach house, sold after 33 years of ownership, set on a large 1,249sq m site over two adjoining lots.

The prime elevated position combines sweeping views north to Point Cartwright and south to Moffat Beach with direct beachfront access.

This unique offering attracted strong interest from local, interstate and overseas buyers in a marketing campaign conducted by Peter Neale of Savills Residential.

Mr Neale said the successful sale result highlights the intense demand for prime beachfront positions, which are very rarely offered to the market.

He said Wilson Avenue at Dicky Beach is among the most tightly held and sought after of all beachfront addresses on the Sunshine Coast.

“These types of properties just don’t come to market very often and 3 Wilson Avenue provides a rare combination of size, elevation and future development options,” he said.

“The established beach house provides a relaxed setting to enjoy the prime beachfront location and lifestyle with four bedrooms, three bathrooms, two living areas and an expansive deck running along the back of the house to enjoy the amazing ocean views and sea breezes,” he said.

“The large site also presents many potential options to fully maximise the blue-chip coastal setting, including developing the two adjoining lots or building a dream home on one and selling the other subject to Council approval.”
