Weekend Gold Coast Bulletin - Property
Mountain retreat is well above par
It could easily be confused for a theme park but a family home in the Gold Coast Hinterland with a par three golf hole, helipad, basketball court, rally track and playground has hit the market. There is also a games room with a pool table and arcade machines, air hockey table and electronic dart board, which is included in the sale.
The 33ha holding at 13/905 Main Western Rd, Tamborine Mountain is the biggest privately owned parcel of land on the mountain and includes a new 777sq m mansion with a pond and fountain.
Built for the avid entertainer, the house also has a stocked bar in the second entertaining space and a built-in outdoor spa on the main bedroom balcony.
Perhaps best of all, it has a 1200 sqm game fishing lake for those who love wetting a line.
The owner is an overseas-based property developer who paid $900,000 for the block in 2020, before building the home with the intent of moving back to southeast Queensland.
“I’ve got a young son and there’s so many families on the mountain – it would’ve been
wonderful to have them around to enjoy the place,” the owner said.
“I’m an avid golfer myself, that’s why there’s a par three hole; and there’s room for another tee.
“The rally track is my personal favourite though – it sits about 30m down the ridge from Hang Glider’s Lookout (at Tamborine Mountain) so you get that same, incredible sunset at night. “It’s the pinnacle of Hinterland living.” The property is going to auction on May 24 through Ray White Burleigh Group’s Ricky Agent, who said it was a wonderland for kids and parents alike.
“You won’t get bored there, that’s for sure,” he said.
“Seriously, a golf hole, helipad, basketball court, rally track and playground – it’s jam packed fun for the whole family.
“People pay good money for that kind of entertainment and it’s literally in your backyard.
“The home itself is incredible too; four bedrooms, four bathrooms and eight car garage.
“The views are to die for as well – it’s just magic.”
Mr Agent said the property would suit a “work from home professional”.
“It’s out of the hustle and bustle of the Gold Coast, but of course, still within striking distance so if you did want to go into town, it’s just a short drive.”
