Nestled on the picturesque Main River and surrounded by meticulously landscaped gardens and mature trees, this timeless sanctuary offers true secluded living at its finest.   

Occupying over an acre of prime Main River land on one of the Gold Coast's most prestigious streets, this private and secluded 5,625m² property exudes sophistication. The estate features an architecturally designed double-story main residence spanning 1,112 m², along with a fully contained two-bedroom guest residence. It offers a luxurious blend of space and privacy in a serene, riverside setting. The property has served as a retreat for high-profile guests such as Elon Musk, Jude Law, and Baz Luhrmann, Priyanka Chopra and provides a tranquil Estate just moments away from the Gold Coast center.

A winding driveway lined with preserved towering trees leads to the main residence, a masterpiece crafted by South African architect Ewald de Weerd of BDA Architecture. Inspired by post-war 1950s Australia, American Georgian architecture, New Zealand's Arrowtown, and Cape Cod, this five-bedroom, four-bathroom home has seamlessly transcended over the past decade.

Designed with a visionary approach, this property radiates the warmth and character of a cherished family home. Many of the natural materials used in its construction are recycled, adding a timeless quality to the residence. The solid timber floorboards, beams, and joists, reclaimed from a century-old heritage building, beautifully contrast with the contemporary elements of Calacatta marble, Tuscan tiles, natural stone, and rendered brickwork.

The home reveals thoughtfully crafted spaces and inviting nooks at every turn. It boasts multiple living areas, including a formal living room with a vaulted ceiling, a three-tier crystal chandelier, and a 4.8-meter two-way stone fireplace-ideal for cozy winter evenings. Book lovers will appreciate the serene library, complete with floor-to-ceiling bookshelves and a rolling ladder. The master bedroom is a luxurious retreat, featuring a spacious bathroom, walk-in robes, and a sitting area overlooking lush gardens. A balcony offers a tranquil spot to enjoy the river's sounds and watch sunsets over the hinterland. The property is designed for entertaining, accommodating gatherings from five to 500 guests. It includes a gourmet kitchen with high-end appliances, an oversized Calacatta marble island, a scullery, a butler's pantry, and a subterranean wine cellar. 

Expansive timber decks seamlessly connect the interior to the outdoors, including a 25-meter lap pool and gardens extending to the river's edge.
The poolside 'fun house' provides additional entertaining space, featuring a deck and a riverfront fire pit-perfect for creating lasting memories. There is also a separate guesthouse with two bedrooms, a lounge, a three-car garage, and a workshop, making it ideal for accommodating extended family, guests, or staff.
