Veteran adman Alex Hamill lists Villa Nette, Noosa apartment
The semi-retired company director Alex Hamill and his wife Brenda are swapping Noosa district homes.
In 1999 he bought a three-bedroom unit off the plan in the Gerry Nettleton-designed Villa Nette, at 2/56 Park Road, Noosa Heads, for $1.9 million.
The four-unit luxury development was by Tjeerd La Grouw who retained one of the apartments, as did his joint venture partner, architect Gerry Nettleton who sold for $4 million last year.
After more than 15 years they are swapping high-end Noosa Heads for bustling Noosaville.
Hamill is asking $3.6m for his unit, listed the unit previously in 2011.
Richardson & Wrench Noosa director Peter Butt has the property.
Of the nine properties Richardson & Wrench auctioned last month, five sold under the hammer for between $620,000 and $1.2 million.
The former chief executive and chairman of what was once Australia’s biggest advertising agency, George Patterson told The Australian it was one very few places in Australia, if any, that have a beautiful beach, great food, shopping, low-rise development and a national park right on the doorstep.
He first holidayed at the Sunshine Coast tourist destination in 1974.
