Land for Sale in
Coolum Beach
Welcome to Coolum Horizons
Welcome to Coolum Horizons, a boutique residential land estate in Coolum Beach on Queensland’s Sunshine Coast. Set on an elevated ridgeline just minutes from the beach, the estate offers a rare opportunity to secure a large, registered homesite in one of the coast’s most tightly held communities.
Across just 27 homesites, land sizes range from 1,501m² to 2,306m², giving you the space and flexibility to design a home around your lifestyle, the natural contours of the land and the outlook. Generous blocks, elevated positions and a private setting create a sense of space that is increasingly difficult to find this close to the coast.
Coolum’s surf beaches are about five minutes away and Sunshine Coast Airport is around ten minutes from the estate, with schools, cafés, shopping and everyday amenities close by.
More space. More privacy. More freedom to build the home you want in Coolum Beach.

Large Residential Homesites from 1,501m² to 2,306m²
Coolum Horizons is different from a typical new residential estate. These are large freehold homesites in an established coastal location, with room to create a home that responds to the land rather than fitting a standard suburban footprint.
Every homesite is:
Freehold and registered
Fully serviced, with underground power and NBN connection available
Between 1,501m² and 2,306m²
Positioned within a boutique 27-homesite estate
Offered without a fixed build-time requirement
Available to build with your preferred designer and builder
Five homesites are available now, with further homesites to be released shortly. View the Coolum Horizons homesite plan for current availability and lot sizes, or contact Peter Ware on 0408 210 355 for pricing and upcoming release information.
Vacant Land for Sale in Coolum Beach, With Space to Build Differently
Finding vacant land for sale in Coolum Beach is one thing. Finding a large block with elevation, privacy and the freedom to design around the site is another.
At Coolum Horizons, the natural fall of the land creates opportunities for split-level living, elevated outlooks and homes designed to capture breezes, light and views. Rather than forcing a conventional floor plan onto the block, buyers can create a home that works with the site from the outset.
The generous homesite sizes also create room for the features that matter to you, whether that is a pool, landscaped gardens, outdoor entertaining, additional garaging, flexible family spaces or a dual-living design.
A Connected Coastal Base on the Sunshine Coast
Coolum Beach sits between Noosa and Maroochydore, giving you easy access to the Sunshine Coast’s beaches, employment centres, airport, shopping and hinterland while retaining the feel of an established coastal town.
About 5 minutes to Coolum’s surf beaches
About 10 minutes to Sunshine Coast Airport
About 20 minutes to Noosa and Maroochydore
A short drive to hinterland towns including Eumundi, Yandina and Montville
Around 90 minutes to Brisbane
Weekends can mean the coastal boardwalk or Mount Coolum, farmers markets in Eumundi and Yandina, rainforest walks in the hinterland, dining in Noosa or shopping at Sunshine Plaza in Maroochydore.
Design a Home Around the Land, the Views and Your Lifestyle
Award-Winning Sloping-Site Design Expertise
Building on a sloping block calls for considered design. Coolum Horizons has partnered with Iziko Designs, Sunshine Coast building designers who specialise in homes for sloping sites, so buyers can access specialist design expertise from the beginning. Rustin Obery walks the land before a single line is drawn.
Iziko Designs’ concept for 16 Horizons Drive won Residential Conceptual Design at the 2026 Building Design Queensland Sunshine Coast Regional Design Awards and is progressing to the Queensland State Design Awards in October 2026.
Good sloping-site design can help address common challenges:
Reduce unnecessary excavation by shaping the home to follow the natural fall of the land
Replace generic floor plans with a design informed by orientation, breezes and outlook
Use split levels and elevation to capture ocean and hinterland views
Create separation, privacy and flexible living zones across the home
You are not required to use a particular designer or builder. You can work with Iziko Designs, appoint your own designer, use your preferred builder or ask to be connected with local builders experienced with sloping sites.
