3.0 Proposed development details
The ‘Golden Breed’ surf shop has been located at the entrance the Hastings Street precinct for over
a decade. The Golden Breed branding ‘started in the 1960s and was all about riding the perfect
wave… stepping aside from the ‘rat race’ and society’s expectations of the time. Golden Breed was
born out of the Californian sunset and a yearning for a more free and easy life’.

The proposed redevelopment is in keeping with the branding and allows for casual open areas under
the existing melaleuca tree for discussions about surfing. The architecture includes references to the
weatherboard ‘surf shacks’, which has been modernised to allow for natural light and ventilation
through the building, while retaining the single storey appearance from the Noosa Drive frontage.

The applicant seeks to redevelop the existing ‘Golden Breed’ surf shop with the following features of
the development:

Ground Floor
   - 155m2 shop fronting Noosa Dr.
   - Driveway access along the northern boundary for the owner’s VW transporter vehicle to
      service the site with deliveries and caretaker’s parking.
   - Retention of existing trees on the site and adjoining with Ocean Breeze.
   - Landscaping around the perimeter of the site.

First Floor
    - 90m2 gross floor area caretaker’s accommodation
    - 2 bedroom and 2 bathroom

Second Floor
   - 32m2 roof deck for caretaker use only

The building is to be finished in a weatherboard fascia with gable roofs facing Noosa Dr, with
associated footpath works to bring people towards the frontage of the shop.
