The first residents have moved into a unique and ‘laid-back’ community by the beach.

Kombi Street at Stockland’s Bokarina Beach community has been a hive of activity as 44 households started moving into their new 1960s-inspired architectural beach homes.

The Kombi Street Beach Homes, designed by Hollindale Mainwaring Architecture, invoke a sense of sixties beach shack nostalgia with pastel colours, lightweight cladding, the use of natural lighting and a modern interpretation of the white picket fence at the forefront of the design.

Buyers were attracted to the turnkey homes’ seven different open plan designs, with high ceilings to flood the seamless indoor/outdoor living area with prevailing breezes.

The townhomes are 300m from the coastal pathway that leads to the waves of Bokarina Beach, with a hospital precinct, restaurants and cafes all close-by.

Matt Patullo, Senior Development Manager at Stockland, said the beach homes provided customers with an affordable, low-maintenance home in a great location at a premium coastal community.

“We’re really pleased to welcome the first residents to Kombi Street and are sure they will be very happy in their new homes,” he said.

“Bokarina Beach is a sought-after location among singles, families and couples seeking a connected community with a laid back lifestyle, and the architecturally designed boutique homes attracted a lot of attention.”

Bokarina Beach has been labelled a ‘connected community with a laid back lifestyle’.

Darren Woodward purchased one of the final Kombi Street Beach Homes after falling in love with the community’s waterside lifestyle and connectivity to the wider Sunshine Coast region.

“Purchasing a home in Bokarina Beach was one of the easiest and greatest decisions we’ve made. We can’t believe this is actually our home,” Mr Woodward said.

“We love how easily accessible everything is and all we’ll ever need is right on our doorstep.

“It’s a real beachside community and we really love the atmosphere and lifestyle the area brings.”

More than 90 per cent of the Bokarina Beach release is  sold, with just two homes left up for grabs in the community Glassy Lane.

Starting at $1,599,000, the four-bedroom homes showcase the best in modern coastal architecture and feature generous open floor plans inspired by the natural coastal environment, embracing filtered light, sea breezes and a strong connection to outdoor living.
