Holiday haven - Queensland holiday home

Located south of the border, the beachside lifestyle resort subdivision Salt is a popular spot for Queenslanders out on a day trip or looking for a relaxing holiday. The area is renowned for its beautiful beaches that first attracted the attention of the early settlers.

More recent toil in Northpoint Ave has blossomed into a beautiful holiday home, endowed with so much more than the average bach of yesteryear. Built not as a contemporary beach house, but as a European styled house with a Mediterranean influence, the colour palette has been painstakingly designed from top to toe to reflect this personality with the warmth of varying strengths of Resene Spanish White (complex neutral) complementing the home's furniture.

The exterior rendered solid concrete block is finished in Resene Double Spanish White (beige neutral) on main wall areas, Resene Gold Coast (ochre tan) on pillars and feature areas and accents of Resene Tsunami (grey blue) on detailing.

Inside, the house luxuriates in a hardwearing Environmental Choice approved Resene SpaceCote Low Sheen finish in Resene Double Spanish White joined by trim and joinery in Resene Lustacryl tinted to Resene Quarter Spanish White and matching Resene Quarter Spanish White ceilings. A striking feature wall in the master bedroom commands attention with its Resene Enamacryl Metallic tinted to Resene Lodestar (gold metallic) gleaming finish.

Eighteen months in the making, the owners of this home can now holiday in style.
