A leading example of sustainable development

Public Esplanade

After removing large amounts of invasive weeds, Cape Bouvard ceded six hectares of fragile land on the banks of Noosa Inlet to Council in 2007, protecting this delicate corridor that is home to colonies of migratory birds.

Complimenting the Public Esplanade, in 2009 Cape Bouvard donated a further 14 hectares of wet heath to the Noosa Community Environmental Trust (www.noosatrust.com.au). 

This sensitive wallum ecosystem is a rare sanctuary within an otherwise urban area and provides valuable habitat to threatened fauna whilst serving as a buffer to Noosa's surrounding waterways.

Private Open Space for Conservation & Waterways Protection

These "POSCWP" areas preserve an additional 3 hectares of bushland and occur on title within both the land and apartment precincts. Protected by environmental covenants, they retain and enhance fauna corridors, provide buffers to built-form development and increase privacy for all residents.

On such example is the heavily vegetated embankment to Noosa Sound, which not only protects the privacy of those living on the waterway itself, but also provides a unique level of peace and seclusion to the main living areas within the Settler's Cove apartment precinct.
