12 Karnu Drive

Set among whispering gum trees on five private acres, Ninderry Manor is a hinterland sanctuary that balances seclusion with accessibility, timeless charm with modern comfort, and lifestyle with opportunity. Just a short drive from Coolum's surf, Noosa's beaches and the hinterland's best markets and cafés, this is a property where the day stretches wide, and life feels expansive. At the heart of the estate, the Manor itself welcomes you with warmth, light, and effortless flow. Multiple living areas connect to sunlit decks, manicured Japanese gardens, and a sparkling pool, while walls of glass capture sweeping escarpment views. Most bedrooms have a private ensuite, and with high-quality finishes throughout comfort and style is ensured without compromise. Currently operating as a highly successful boutique bed and breakfast, the property is often booked out in full, offering a turnkey income opportunity without compromising privacy or lifestyle. Yet the estate also lends itself perfectly to a family sanctuary, multi-generational living, or a creative retreat - flexible spaces allow you to imagine the property evolving to suit your vision. Beyond the main residence, the self-contained dwelling adds further flexibility. Whether it becomes a guest residence, home office, or part of a multi-generational plan, it enhances the sense of space, privacy, and opportunity that defines Ninderry Manor. Winding paths through native bushland, quiet reading nooks, poolside retreats, and sunlit terraces invite exploration, relaxation, and connection with the natural surroundings. ~The Lifestyle~ This is a home is located within arms reach of many of the Sunshine Coast's favourite attractions. Weekends might be spent exploring nearby trails, cycling through the escarpment, enjoying local markets, or picnicking on the lawn. Sunsets over the rolling hills, morning coffees on the deck, and balmy summer evenings by the pool become everyday rituals. Ninderry's semi-rural location ensures tranquility, yet it is just moments from Spirit House, Eumundi Markets, Terella Brewery, and other hinterland treasures. ~Property Highlights~ -7 Bedrooms, 8 bathrooms - Private ensuite for most bedrooms -Expansive manor + self-contained residence -Double garage, carport, and dedicated space for 6 vehicle parking -Landscaped Japanese gardens with pool, 2x outdoor spa's, and entertaining terraces -Multiple living zones offering flexible use -Escarpment-edge privacy with panoramic hinterland views -High-end fittings and finishes -Five acres of land with bushland, lawns, and open space -Fully self-sufficient: 10kW solar, 2 x 44,000L water tanks, biocycle treatment -Fully operating boutique bed and breakfast, often booked in full Ninderry Manor presents as a canvas for the life you want to live.
