The Gold Coast is a playground for the rich and famous, and this is evident in the number of luxurious homes being offered for sale. Several factors have contributed to this boom, including low interest rates, migration from southern states, and a post-Covid-19 bounce back. Luxurious features of these homes include private jet-ski garages, home cinemas, and whisky bars. Some of these homes even come with dedicated waterfront helipads, a dedicated helipad, and a butler’s pantry.
Bartinon is one of the most famous Gold Coast mansions, and was built in the 1980s for Sir Justin and Lady Hickey. This Mediterranean-style mansion has hosted star-studded guests, including Frank Sinatra, Dr. Henry Kissinger, and Whitney Houston. The current owner, Doug Kefford, purchased the property in 2009 for $8 million. While it was originally designed as a six-bedroom mansion, it now houses five suites and has a swimming pool heated to a warm temperature.
One of the most luxurious homes for sale in the Gold Coast is the Alston estate, a home with nine bedrooms, seven bathrooms, and a private nightclub. Located in the exclusive suburb of Tallai, the Alston estate is expected to sell for $6.5 million to $9 million. Its designer dressing rooms and sauna, as well as a Teppanyaki cabana overlooking a 12-metre swimming pool, are among its many luxuries.
Aside from the ocean views, these homes also feature large gardens and terraces for all the main living spaces. From the master bedroom to the open-plan living and dining room, there are stunning views of the ocean from every corner of the home. This property also includes marble floors, staircases, and a cool room. Imported ‘Creme-Sand’ marble finishes are found throughout the house. A number of security CCTV cameras are automated to protect the property and the family inside.
Another property for sale in the Gold Coast features a six-bedroom theme park-inspired property with direct access to the Broadwater. A hidden ‘wet room’ provides easy access to the Broadwater and has a seven-metre waterfall inspired by the Wet’n’Wild theme park. A boathouse and chapel are also featured in this property. Several other luxurious features of this property include a spa, chapel, and helipad dedicated to private yachts.
Besides luxury holiday homes, you can also choose from a range of other options in this city. Whether you’re planning a family vacation, or an important business trip, a five-bedroom apartment can accommodate eleven people comfortably. This holiday home features modern kitchen appliances, spacious living areas, and a pool for entertaining guests. Located close to restaurants, bars, and the famous beaches, the holiday home is an excellent choice for a vacation rental.
