<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/broadbeach-qld-4218">Broadbeach</a> offers plenty of reasons to live vertically, but moving from a substantial family home into an apartment can expose the compromises of high-density living. Privacy, room for guests and usable living space tend to matter more when an apartment is intended as a permanent home rather than an occasional coastal base.

A typical residential floor at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/the-eveleigh-broadbeach-7-9-surf-parade-broadbeach-qld-4218">The Eveleigh</a>, on Surf Parade,&nbsp;contains just four apartments. The 94-residence development by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/hirsch-faigen">Hirsch &amp; Faigen</a> is predominantly made up of expansive three-bedroom homes, with a limited collection of half-floor penthouses above.

Across the apartment floors, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/rothelowman">Rothelowman</a> has used the relatively limited number of residences to give each home greater access to natural light and outlook. Living spaces extend towards full-height glazing, while a series of bay windows frame selected views across the Pacific Ocean, city and hinterland rather than treating the building edge as a continuous wall of glass.

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=149670 project_image_fid=360965]

“The apartment floors deliver a collection of homes that embrace controlled outlook via a series of bay windows deliberately framing moments of view,” Rothelowman Director Kim Lowman said.

From outside, those projecting forms contribute to the tower’s faceted profile. Strong horizontal and vertical elements establish its proportions, while the changing position of the sun alters the light, shadow and reflection across the façade throughout the day.

The same attention moves inside the apartments, where the material palette combines warm timber, natural stone, metallic detailing and softer curved forms. Kitchens sit within the main living zone, with stone island benches, integrated joinery and European appliances, before the living areas extend towards the glazing and the outlook.

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=149670 project_image_fid=360981]

Three genuine bedrooms provide room to accommodate family and guests, while two secure car spaces and storage address some of the practical considerations that can become more noticeable when moving from a larger home. Feedback from the display suite has centred on the warmth and restraint of the interiors, with buyers commenting that the residences feel like homes rather than conventional coastal apartments.

A limited collection of half-floor penthouses occupies the upper levels, increasing the scale of the living spaces and adding private balconies and elevated finishes. From this position, the outlook extends between the ocean and hinterland.

Outside the private residences, The Eveleigh separates its shared spaces between the podium and rooftop. The podium is centred on wellness, with subtropical landscaping surrounding a swimming pool and pool terrace, yoga garden, private gymnasium, sauna and hot and cold plunge facilities. Landscaped retreats and pavilions provide additional places to sit away from the main recreation areas.

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=149670 project_image_fid=360966]

Higher in the building, a rooftop pavilion and private dining suite sit alongside resident lounge, barbecue and outdoor dining areas, opening towards panoramic views across the ocean, city and hinterland.

“Buyers are no longer just looking for an apartment, but a lifestyle where they can relax, reset, and enjoy a balanced way of living,” Hirsch &amp; Faigen Director of Sales Matt George said.

Interest to date has come from established owner-occupiers and interstate lifestyle purchasers, including buyers planning a future move to the Gold Coast. Many are coming from larger homes and want to reduce ongoing maintenance without giving up space for family and guests, privacy, two car spaces or the ability to entertain at home.

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=149670 project_image_fid=360969]

Much of that daily life can also take place beyond the building without requiring a drive. Kurrawa Beach and Pratten Park are an easy walk from Surf Parade, while Pacific Fair, Oracle Boulevard, The Oasis, restaurants, cafés, entertainment and public transport are also within walking distance.

The Eveleigh is Hirsch &amp; Faigen's fourth Gold Coast development since entering the market in 2021, following The Hemingway at Palm Beach, The Emerson at Kirra and Yves at Mermaid Beach. Each of the preceding projects sold out before completion.

“Broadbeach had been on our radar throughout our time operating on the Gold Coast,” the developer said. “Following our projects in Palm Beach, Kirra and Mermaid Beach, Broadbeach represented the natural next step for the business.”

The Surf Parade site brought together proximity to the beach, protected coastal outlooks and walkability to dining, shopping and recreation. Hirsch &amp; Faigen also identified the street as an emerging premium residential address, with enough separation from Broadbeach's busier destinations to retain a quieter environment at home.

The Eveleigh is now under construction by Maxcon, with completion forecast for mid-2028. Three-bedroom residences are currently available from $2.87 million.

The Eveleigh brings house-like apartments to Broadbeach

A long-stalled Campbelltown development site is back in play, with new plans for 139 apartments set to supersede a mixed-use scheme approved almost a decade ago but never built.

The new proposal for 28 Cordeaux Street would deliver 116 market and 23 affordable apartments in a part 14-storey building, bringing a substantial new project into a Campbelltown market where new apartment supply remains limited.

Plans have been filed over the 3,092 sqm corner site at Moore-Oxley Street, around 600 metres from Campbelltown Railway Station and the city-centre retail core.

The site already carries a mixed-use residential approval dating to 2016. Doroch Architects has now been engaged on a larger replacement scheme, which is progressing as a State Significant Development Application following a Housing Delivery Authority determination in August 2025.

The apartment mix comprises 39 one-bedroom, 72 two-bedroom and 28 three-bedroom residences. Two-bedroom apartments make up just over half of the project, while three-bedroom homes account for 20 per cent.

<img alt="First look: New 139-apartment plans revive long-stalled Campbelltown city centre site" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="136dd5b9-3791-4da6-9e31-76f533f5b4de" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Campbelltown%20da2.png?VersionId=LgOSy9nwf5u.MGswBBwaGGxuX8QpHSl_" />

Of the 139 apartments, 23 will be delivered as affordable housing under the in-fill affordable housing provisions of the Housing SEPP. The affordable component represents 15 per cent of the residential gross floor area and will be managed by a registered Community Housing Provider.

Doroch has sought to break the scale of the building into two distinct elements, with a masonry podium of around four storeys establishing the street edge before the residential tower steps back above.

The corner position has shaped that approach. Cordeaux Street faces toward the commercial and civic centre, while Moore-Oxley Street leads into the lower-scale residential neighbourhood to the south, and the design verification report describes the site as "bridging the commercial core to the north and established residential areas to the south."

The podium will be expressed predominantly in face brick, while the upper levels shift to brushed and grooved concrete cladding with darker metal detailing. Recessed sections, deep balcony edges and landscaping break down the upper form, with an approximately 11.8-metre setback to the northern boundary addressing the adjoining St Peters Anglican School.

Campbelltown has been starved of new residential developments in the last decade.

The only other notable development set to come to market this year is ALAND's Queen Square, a mixed-use precinct on over two hectares that will comprise apartments above a vibrant ground-level retail and hospitality dining precinct.

First Look: Sherlock Construction pitches apartments for low-rise Deception Bay

Queensland builder-developer MAYD has revealed the first look at its major North Kirra beachfront development, lodging amended plans that reduce the number of apartments and increase the proportion of larger residences.

The project is planned across a substantial 4,742 sqm amalgamated site spanning seven lots at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/2-6-pacific-parade-bilinga-qld-4225">2-6 Pacific Parade</a> and 27-33 Golden Four Drive in Bilin​ga, directly opposite Nor​th Kirra Beach.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/mayd-group">MAYD</a> secured the site for $32.5 million in 2025, in what was one of the Gold Coast's largest property transactions of the year.

The development will be delivered across two stages, with the first stage carrying an estimated gross realisation value of around $360 million.

The latest amendments seek to reduce the overall apartment count and shift the project further toward the owner-occupier market, with larger residences designed for buyers wanting considerably more space than traditionally offered in a beachfront apartment.

The residential mix will include townhomes, oversized two-bedroom apartments, substantial three-bedroom residences and four-bedroom homes.

MAYD has appointed Cera Stribley to lead the architecture and interiors, with the Melbourne-based design practice drawing on the beachfront setting through a series of ocean-facing terraces and heavily landscaped balconies.

Strong horizontal forms and curved balconies will define the exterior, with subtropical landscaping integrated throughout the building to soften the built form and increase the connection between the residences and the beachfront.

The project will also include an extensive collection of resident wellness and lifestyle facilities, continuing the broader shift across the Gold Coast's luxury apartment market toward larger homes supported by resort-style amenity.

<img alt="MAYD" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="d1bcbb05-e659-4b47-8bd4-1e595315e2ad" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-08-27%20at%202.05.03%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=jj0XEud1X1DuLt7_KyElhjMdZGOXmLHP" />

MAYD Founder Todd Mould said North Kirra was increasingly appealing to buyers attracted to the more established, lower-density character of the southern Gold Coast.

"North Kirra presents one of the most compelling luxury residential opportunities currently emerging in Australia, combining absolute beachfront with the character and authenticity that buyers are increasingly seeking, and the same sense of tight-knit community that defined Burleigh and Currumbin perhaps 10 or 15 years ago," Mould said.

"With Gold Coast Airport on its doorstep, it also offers a level of accessibility that broadens its appeal across almost every market demographic."

The project comes as the southern Gold Coast continues to attract an increasing share of high-end apartment development and buyer activity.

Kirra in particular has emerged as one of the region's more tightly held beachfront markets, with its relatively low-density character, established surf and hospitality scene and proximity to Gold Coast Airport differentiating it from the higher-density markets further north.

Mould said those characteristics had informed the approach MAYD and Cera Stribley had taken to the project.

"We've worked closely with Cera Stribley to create a vision that is deeply connected to its surroundings," he said.

"Inspired by the coastline itself, the architecture has been shaped around space, privacy and resort-style living, creating a collection of homes that reflects the next generation of luxury on the southern Gold Coast."

MOTIV Managing Director Carly Cottam, who has been appointed to market the project, said buyer attention had continued to move south along the Gold Coast.

"Purchasers who may once have defaulted to Broadbeach, Main Beach or Surfers Paradise are increasingly recognising the value of a genuine beachfront location that offers lower density, strong amenity and a more established sense of community," Cottam said.

"Kirra has a powerful combination of growing demand and genuine scarcity. Beachfront supply is inherently constrained, the area remains relatively low density, and buyers are increasingly placing a premium on locations that feel established, uncrowded and authentic rather than heavily developed."

Cottam said the proximity to Gold Coast Airport was also proving increasingly important for interstate and second-home buyers.

"Being minutes from Gold Coast Airport makes it particularly compelling for interstate buyers, frequent travellers and second-home purchasers who can access an authentic coastal lifestyle almost immediately after stepping off a flight."

The acquisition takes MAYD's active development portfolio to more than $500 million, with the North Kirra project representing one of its largest undertakings to date.

MAYD is targeting an early 2027 launch.

First look at MAYD's North Kirra mixed-use precinct

<main data-perf-region="main">
Castle Hill, the longtime hub of the Hills District, has been one of the major beneficiaries of Sydney's Metro expansion, with improved connectivity helping drive continued population growth, development and buyer demand across the Hills District.

But despite that growth, the suburb has seen relatively few major new apartment projects brought to market over the past 18 months.

Hills District developer Reve Group is looking to fill that gap with <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/nova-r-ve-castle-hill-2-garthowen-crescent-castle-hill-nsw-2154">Nova Rêve</a>, a major new mixed-use precinct on the corner of Garthowen Crescent and Old Castle Hill Road, a short walk from Castle Hill Metro Station and Castle Towers.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=152737 project_image_fid=377679]

The project will comprise three residential towers alongside a hotel, restaurants, cafes and a skybar, more than 1,600 sqm of ground-floor retail and almost an acre of landscaped gardens.

It represents the largest project undertaken by Reve Group, the development arm of the Kassis family, which has been building across the Hills District for more than 30 years through Kassis Homes.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=152737 project_image_fid=377675]

Nova Rêve also represents a significant step up from the family's first apartment development, Grand Rêve, which was delivered nearby on Garthowen Crescent.

Grand Rêve introduced larger, house-like apartment layouts and premium inclusions including Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances to the Castle Hill market.

Nova Rêve takes that approach to a precinct scale, combining the residential component with hospitality, retail and substantial public and resident landscaping.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=152737 project_image_fid=377685]

Reve Group Managing Director Sam Kassis said the project reflected the family's three decades of building in the Hills, which has evolved from trophy homes on quarter-acre blocks to larger-scale apartment development.

"Grand Rêve was our first apartment project here and it showed us what this pocket of Castle Hill could be. Nova Rêve is the refinement of that idea: not just apartments, but a place the whole suburb can use," Kassis said.

A key part of that approach is the hotel, which has been designed to operate as an amenity for the wider Castle Hill community rather than solely hotel guests.

It will include restaurants, cafes, skybars and all-day dining, alongside conference and event facilities catering to business functions, community groups and private events.

At ground level, more than 1,600 sqm of shops and cafes will open onto the surrounding streets and landscaped areas.

Almost an acre of gardens designed by Land and Form Studios will run through the precinct, incorporating pathways, seating, barbecue areas and children's play spaces.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=152737 project_image_fid=377680]

Reve Group's Romio Georges said creating an active ground plane had been central to the planning of Nova Rêve.

"There are gardens with pathways, barbecues, seating and play areas, shops and cafes opening onto the street, and a hotel with restaurants and a skybar that anyone in Castle Hill can walk into," Georges said.

The project's elevated position on one of Sydney's highest ridgelines will also provide apartments with outlooks toward the Sydney skyline, surrounding parkland and the Blue Mountains.

More than 80 per cent of the apartments will occupy corner positions, with Turner responsible for both the architecture and interiors.

Country music star Troy Cassar-Daley and his 4KQ Brisbane radio presenter wife Laurel Edwards are selling their Queensland farming getaway.
Cassar-Daley, who was born in Sydney's Surry Hills in 1969, but moved to Grafton when he was young, loved his fishing on the Vernor property which fronts the Brisbane River an hour west of the Brisbane.
Edwards would ride horses across the four hectare estate.
<div>There's been many a music jam with friends and family on the verandah that overlooks the scenic river.</div>
LJ Hooker Ipswich agent Jo James is marketing the home with a negotiable $680,000 guide.
<div>Cassar-Daley, who still calls himself a north-coaster, has recently taken time off from writing songs to travel with Laurel to France to celebrate their 22nd year wedding anniversary.</div>
<div>
<div>He'll be back for the Gympie Music Muster in August. Then its on to a seven day country cruising ship with John Williamson, Gina Jeffreys, Tania Kernaghan and Chad Morgan that leaves Sydney in early October.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>
<div>Brisbane 4KQ's Laurel Edwards was honoured last year for 25 years of radio service. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>
She is the host of the Laurel, Gary &amp; Mark show which in the most recent ratings was equal number one AM breakfast show.
<div> </div>
</div>
</div>
<div>The couple, who paid $630,000 in 2007 for the property, are reluctantly selling now their kids, Clay and Jem, are all but grown up.</div>
</div>
<div>
<div> </div>
</div>
<div>Clay turned 20 earlier this week and he's followed in his mother's footsteps, presenting on 98.8FM, a country radio station, alongside famed comedian Jamie Dunn, aka as Agro the puppet.</div>
A charming two-level, four bedroom family home is surrounded by mature trees and established gardens.
The property is divided in to two fully fenced main paddocks, with machinery, stables, cattle yards and a veggie garden.
<div>The couple, who wed in 1996 when Cassar-Daley was sporting a then fashionable mullet, have been based at Brisbane's Balmoral for over two decades, upgrading homes in 2004 when they spent $2 million on a 1930s home with a swimming pool looking out to the city. </div>
He was 11 when he first went to the Tamworth Country Music Festival.
His big break came when he replaced James Blundell as the lead singer of country music band, The Blue Heeler Band. 
The first single "Dream Out Loud" was released in 1994 by Sony Music and reached number-one on the Australian country music charts.
Cassar-Daley won the 1995 ARIA Award for Best Country Record. 
He's gone on to win a further three ARIA Awards and 36 Golden Guitars in a career spanning over 30 years and 10 studio albums.

Aussie cricketer Nathan Lyon is yet to sell his Vaucluse investment apartment which was passed in at recent auction on an opening $1.1 million vendor bid.
Auctioneer Damien Cooley indicated there were two parties yet to get their purchasing capabilities finalised.
The Test veteran, who wasn't selected for the current T20 tri-series in Zimbabwe, paid $1.1 million in 2015.
The two bedder in a 1970s built complex which has been an $800 a week rental is now for sale at $1,125,000.
<a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/property-apartment-nsw-vaucluse-128555194" target="_blank">The Diamond Bay Road apartment</a> has been listed by local agent Brad Pillinger who was initially advising inspects that more than $1.2 million was being sought.
Lyon is back on Australian shores after being part of the Australian team who were white-washed 6-0 in England earlier this year.

Parramatta Eels legend Peter 'Sterlo' Sterling and his wife Selina have sold their longtime Central Coast estate.

The couple are likely to to downsize locally.

Sterlo's who has had ongoing NRL commentary commitments with Channel 9, has been at the home since the mid-1990s.

It was in 1997 when two lots totalling over three hectares were bought for $495,000 just before they had their first child James. 

Hannah followed three years later, with the pair now 18 and 21.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=7275]

There's been no price disclosure, but buyers were being asked for offers between $3 million and $3.3 million.

Surrounded by tropical gardens, the home has four bedrooms, a media room and an office space.

A verandah wraps around the home, while the master suite, complete with walk-in wardrobe and ensuite, has its own private decking.

An infinity pool, entertainment area with built-in barbecue and outdoor kitchen, as well as a number of horse paddocks, sit in the grounds. 

McGrath Terrigal agents Mat Steinwede and Trevor Hamilton had the home for sale for 26 days.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=2772]

Sterling was introduced to the Central Coast by good mate Paul Taylor, having played together in Parramatta's first rugby league premiership side in 1981.

Taylor then played and coached for The Entrance in the twilight years of his league career before shifting to Queensland. 

The couple first spent a year on a property in neighbouring Holgate, all the time looking for a special piece of the Central Coast they could call home. 

"Selina and I drove around all over the place," Sterling recalled in a 2002 profile which added that his dad and sister were at nearby Killarney Vale.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=27675]

Sterlo owned for a few years in Collaroy until 1997 and before that had been at Castle Hill.

"When we came into Matcham I said 'I'd really like to live here one day."

Just twelve months later he was - on eight-and-a-half acres of private, rolling hillside with enough room for the horses and an environment perfect for raising children.

"I look out there now and I see the value in what we've done," he said long before it was worth its current $3 million plus.

"Life doesn't get much better than this," he once said.

"A lot of people think that I spend most of my time away from home with my television commitments and so on, but that's not true, I spend most of my time here.

He said he and Selina are real home bodies.

"We're not real beach people, although we do get down to Wamberal a fair bit during summer."

The couple used to ride all the time. 

Sterlo, one of the all-time great halfbacks, was a major influence in the Eels dominance in the 1980s.

He played 227 games for the Eels, winning four Premierships.

He represented The Blues in the State of Origin 13 times and was inducted into the ARL Hall of Fame in 2006.

Sterlo started his commentary career with Western Sydney radio station 2WS and Channel 10, before moving to the Nine Network.

He later went on to host The Sunday Footy Show, anchoring the program from the show's inception in 1993 until the end of the 2015 season when Yvonne Sampson took the reins.

He was co-host of Nine's The NRL Footy Show for 12 years alongside Paul Vautin and currently hosts  Nine's 'Thursday Night Football' and On the Couch with Sterlo.

Management consultant Geraldine Paton has taken steps towards a tree-change to the Southern Highlands, buying Hayley, the Burradoo trophy home.
Paton has paid $1.38 million for the 1975 square metre parcel, which estate agents Knight Bailey sold in 15 days.
Paton secured $1.8 million through Simeon Manners for her two bedroom <a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/sold/property-apartment-nsw-milsons+point-127457566" target="_blank">Milsons Point apartment</a> in the 1999 Grandview block.
It was among the many luxury blocks created by visionary developer Sid Londish, the 94-year-old giant of the property ­industry, who died last week.
The Grandview lobby (pictured above) still highlights his extravagant ­finishes.
Londish had a policy of living in his own buildings, proclaiming he was not frightened to be in daily contact with occupants.
“That’s how confident I am of presenting a quality product,” he once advised.

There'll be no more dreams as the sun sets in the West for US-based model Nicole Trunfio.
She has just sold her last land holding in Australia after also selling in Dubbo last year.
Trunfio, who recently gave birth to her second child with singer-songwriter husband Garry Clarke Jr, has just let go of her building block in Western Australia (pictured).
It is near the homes of other family members at Australind, a coastal suburb north of Bunbury.
These days Trunfio lives on a Texas ranch with Clarke, two-year-old son Zion and five-month-old daughter Gia. They bought the 20 hecatre property, known as Indian Hill, in late 2016.
They have a two-storey, four-bedroom home with a 15 metre pool, 14-stall stable and horseriding ring.
Trunfio’s Instagram says ranch life is the best.
She was born in Dubbo but moved to Western Australia as a child. <a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/property-residential+land-wa-australind-202127834" target="_blank">Her 710 square metre land parcel</a> near the Australind town centre sold in just one day after being priced at about $219,000.
It was briefly listed in 2011 at $300,000. Trunfio paid $180,000 in 2004 at age 18.
Her Dubbo property <a href="/news/us-based-supermodel-nicole-trunfio-cuts-ties-with-hometown-dubbo">proved to be a better bet.</a>
Trunfio paid $84,000 for the 825 square metre land parcel in 2005. She then built a four-bedroom brick-veneer home for $250,000 and sold last year for $500,000.

Good Price Pharmacy co-founders Anthony Yap and wife Hanh My Luu have listed Wandana, their luxury Balmoral home. 
Wandana, translated to 'see far away' in reference to its postcard views of the Brisbane CBD, cost the couple $4,028,888 in 2014.
Set high on the Wentworth Parade hilltop, the architect-designed home was constructed using suspended concrete slab and portal steel.
It has six bedrooms, five bathrooms, a library, home office, two master suites, media room and a swimming pool beside one of the terraces.
A lift services the three levels, down to the below-ground five car garage, 300 bottle wine cellar and sauna.
Place Bulimba agent Sarah Hackett has an August 4 auction.
The couple were just 23 when they founded Good Price Pharmacy in 2001.
They opened the first pharmacy using $50,000 in life savings. Now Good Price has over 40 stores in six states and an annual turnover in excess of $200 million.

Having paid a suburb record $16 million for the home of former Vocation CEO Mark Hutchinson, surgeon Craig Taylor has sold his redundant Manly home for more than $13 million.
The Tudor-style home on the Fairy Bower dress circle sits on 700 sqm overlooking Shelley Beach.
The four bedroom waterfront reserve home The sale through Rowe Partners agent Jake Rowe sold with approval for a new home from David Selden Design (below).
It had a $12 million to $13 million guide.

Property developers Michael and Prue Williams have been reshuffling their property portfolio, touted as the buyers of the Del Rio, Elizabeth Bay penthouse of Crown Resorts boss John Alexander and photographer wife Alice.
The W Property Group founders are believed to be the $8 million plus buyers of the unit atop the Spanish Mission block which Alexander had owned since 1993.
The exclusive Billyard Avenue block designed in the late 1920s by J.Spencer-Stanfield features only one apartment per floor.
The penthouse (above and below) has three bedrooms and two bathrooms.

The Alexander's still retains a foothold in the New South Wales property market with a Southern Highlands retreat in Robertson.
Earlier this year they sold their nearby retreat, known as Possumwood. 
It's been a busy time too for the Williams' on the property front.

They've just sold their former Potts Point residence, a Wylde Street apartment set in a Victorian Italianate villa-style mansion.
It sold in just one day through Greg McKinley at Richardson &amp; Wrench Elizabeth Bay.
The two level apartment, which once belonged to local restaurateur Paolo Toppi and her husband Neil Cunningham, spans 510 sqm and has three bedrooms, three bathrooms and a private garden courtyard.
It has views of the harbour from its grand tiled balcony with wrought iron lacework.
The Williams' paid $5,525,000 in 2015 when they were downsizing from their Northwood waterfront, which sold for a suburb record $10,375,000.
Their Bondi stint was much more short-lived.
They paid $4.1 million for a three bedroom apartment late last year, only to on sell last month through Pauline Goodyer at Goodyer Real Estate for a higher price.
They established W Property in 1993.

HiLife Health and Beauty founder Peter Nicholas is selling in Darling Point.
It was four years ago when Nicholas paid $8.25 million for the apartment from Sydney FC chairman Scott Barlow after just one day of it being marketed.
Nicholas has renovated the fourth level apartment.
Nicholas, and his TV presenter partner, Belinda Rudd, are now expecting $10 million.
Nicholas had previously created Skin Doctors, which was sold in over 48 countries, before he divested the company.
In 2009, Nicholas made model Jacinta Campbell the face of his number 1 selling make-up brand, Nude By Nature.
