Within Australia's architectural canon, few names carry the weight of Gabriel Poole. RAIA Gold Medallist and one of the most visionary residential architects this country has produced, Poole's homes didn't simply respond to the Queensland landscape - they celebrated it. But this home is something rarer still. This extraordinary lakeside villa at Lakes Coolum, Mount Coolum, is a work of the Gabriel & Elizabeth Poole Design Company - the celebrated creative partnership between Gabriel Poole and his wife, renowned interior designer and artist Elizabeth Frith. Together they formed one of Australia's most distinctive architectural and design collaborations, and this residence stands as a testament to that shared vision in its fullest expression. Now offered to the market for the first time in many years, and presented entirely turnkey - furniture, fittings, and Elizabeth Frith's original artwork collection included - this is a once in a generation opportunity to acquire one of Australia's most significant residential works, completely intact.
