This modern Australian holiday home designed by Jimmie Martin emanates a sense of laid-back luxury with its colourful interiors and idyllic views
A surf mecca with its famous beaches that offer some of the best waves in the world, it’s not difficult to guess why Noosa is one of Australia’s most popular beachside destinations for holidaymakers around the world. The coastal town and suburb on southern Queensland’s Sunshine Coast is where many choose to purchase a holiday home, including this Australian couple who are mainly based in London with their three daughters.
The clients, who are property lawyers, tapped London-based interior design duo Jimmie Martin to give their beach house a refresh. They had previously worked with the firm when it came to the design for their London Herne Hill home, and were so pleased with the result that they tasked Jimmie Martin with the transformation of their beach property as well.

Situated in The Beaches, a gated community in Sunrise Beach, the property boasts stunning coastal views and direct private access to the expansive stretch of golden sand at the beach. Described as a “James Bond-style modern beachfront house”, the six bedroom is able to easily fit up to 14 people for a night.
“This is not a typical beach house. The building is sharp and modern with clean lines, like a beautiful white box on a hill,” describes Jimmie Karlsson, the founder, creative director, and one half of Jimmie Martin’s namesake. “I was struck with the light. It fills every corner of the property. Large windows framed the gorgeous view out to the sea with the sounds of the Pacific ocean.”
