Auction TBC | All Offers Encouraged Prior

Positioned on what is arguably one of Runaway Bay's most irreplaceable waterfront landholdings, this extraordinary residence occupies a truly one-of-one offering, the only known single waterfront allotment in Runaway Bay spanning over 1,000sqm with approximately 61 metres of water frontage.

Set on a commanding north-facing corner position with only one direct neighbouring property, the home enjoys an incredible sense of scale, openness and privacy rarely seen on the northern Gold Coast. Elevated above the canal with sweeping water views from almost every angle, the residence captures cooling breezes, all-day natural light and a level of waterfront presence that simply cannot be replicated under today's subdivision and planning constraints.

Constructed to an outstanding standard with longevity and structural integrity front of mind, the residence showcases concrete block construction, steel-framed internal walls and extra-thick concrete foundations, a calibre of construction seldom seen in modern homes. Elevated positioning further enhances both the outlook and practicality of the home, while soaring three-metre ceilings throughout create an immediate feeling of volume, airflow and light.

At the centre of the home, the spacious kitchen, living and dining areas overlook the water and provide exceptional functionality for families and entertainers alike. Multiple living zones offer flexibility for multi-generational living, working from home or accommodating guests in complete comfort.

The downstairs level comprises four generous bedrooms, including a substantial waterfront master retreat complete with ensuite and sunroom. Upstairs offers an incredibly versatile private retreat currently configured as a home office with two additional bedroom spaces, while also providing flexibility to be utilised as a media room, wellness retreat, guest accommodation or private living zone depending on lifestyle requirements.

A holding of this nature is extraordinarily rare, not simply because of the home itself, but because opportunities to secure a single waterfront block of this size, scale and frontage in Runaway Bay are virtually non-existent.

Property Features Include:
- Arguably the only single waterfront allotment in Runaway Bay with over 1,000sqm and approximately 61 metres of water frontage
- Rare north-facing corner position with sweeping dual-canal frontage
- Elevated residence with expansive water views and cooling breezes
- Private pontoon with exceptional boating flexibility
- Solid concrete block construction with steel-framed internal walls
- Extra-thick concrete foundations built for longevity
- Soaring three-metre ceilings throughout
- Four spacious downstairs bedrooms including waterfront master suite
- Multiple living and entertaining zones across both levels
- Expansive upstairs retreat with office, media room and wellness space
- Covered waterfront entertaining terraces
- Opposite waterfront parklands in a tightly held position
- Minutes to the Broadwater and northern Gold Coast lifestyle amenities

Within walking distance to a wide range of local amenities including the Runaway Bay Sports Complex, incorporating the Gold Coast Performance Centre, indoor sports facilities, cricket, tennis and netball clubs, sporting fields, cycling and walking tracks. Also nearby are St Francis Xavier and Biggera Waters State School, library, childcare centre, church, Runaway Bay Shopping Centre and Harbour Town.

Offering an exceptional boating lifestyle with quick access to the Broadwater by boat, while remaining only a short drive from the Gold Coast University Hospital, Griffith University, the Gold Coast's renowned beaches and easy M1 access connecting Brisbane and Coolangatta.
