<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.

With spring in full swing, the end of the year drawing near and signs of the market beginning to stabilise, according to the latest Herron Todd White (HTW) residential report. 
"Let’s reflect on some of the most expensive, biggest and the most weird and wonderful properties sold in the Goulburn region in 2019," the valuation firm said. 
On the market for eight months, this historic 1861-built residence at<a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/sold/property-house-nsw-goulburn-127722526" target="_blank"> 244-246 Cowper Street</a> (pictured above) sold for a record $2.15 million in March this year.
This property was originally six rundown apartments and was restored to a single residence in 2004.
The home is a Victorian Italiante country style house that has been extensively renovated internally, features five bedrooms, three bathrooms, a three-car detached garage and is located on 2,567 square metres in arguably Goulburn’s most prestigious blue ribbon precinct.
Despite the general residential and prestige high-end market being notably weaker than previous years, this country mansion is now the most expensive home in Goulburn, topping 15 Abbey Road, Goulburn which sold for $1,802,000 in September 2018.
 <img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/c_scale,w_580,q_auto:good/https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/po.images/2019/11/18/104%20bradley%20st.jpg" alt="">
Sold at auction for $1.07 million in September, this double-storey brick grand old property at <a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/sold/property-house-nsw-goulburn-131779178" target="_blank">104 Bradley Street</a> (pictured above) is also located within Goulburn’s blue-ribbon precinct.
Set on just under an acre of established parklands, the 1883 residence comprises six bedrooms, two bathrooms and two kitchens.
The historic ornate features throughout include the original slate tile roof, 14 foot ceilings, grand central timber staircase, wrap around verandah and leadlight windows.
"However, we feel the property could be significantly enhanced with some painting and small renovation works to bring it up to 2019, whilst still keeping within the style of that period," the valuation firm said. 
 <img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/c_scale,w_580,q_auto:good/https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/po.images/2019/11/18/138%20mulwaree%20drive.jpg" alt="">
The property at <a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/sold/property-house-nsw-tallong-129869026" target="_blank">138 Mulwaree Drive, Tallong</a> (pictured above) consists of six large yurt-shaped structures surrounding a central courtyard and can only be described as honeycomb cells from a bird’s eye view.
The residence contains four bedrooms and two bathrooms and features cathedral like ceilings, floor to wall double glazed windows and timber lined ceilings and walls throughout.
The architecturally designed dwelling is located on a heavily timbered 1.33 hectares within the safe gated community of Tallong Park Estate.
Levies by the Tallong Park Association Inc are currently $1,346 per annum which allows the property owners and their invited guests to make use of the nine-hole golf course, tennis courts, 12.5 metre indoor heated swimming pool, bush walking tracks, horse riding trails and picnic areas.

Trinity Beach Palace, the luxury holiday rental in Far North Queensland, has sold.
The retreat of Otto Buttula, one of the pioneers of boutique fund management, and wife Virginia, has been listed since 2016.
Abercromby's Armadale agent Jock Langley took over the listing recently and secured the sale, believed to be around $6 million.
<img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/c_scale,w_580,q_auto:good/https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/po.images/2019/11/29/trinity%201%201.jpg" alt="">
The five bedroom private beachfront estate, north of Cairns, was bought by the Buttula's in 2008, a year after Otto sold IWL, the online share brokerage he co-founded, to Commonwealth Bank. 
There's two outdoor bars and a pool on the 7,585 square metre absolute beachfront parcel.
<img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/c_scale,w_580,q_auto:good/https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/po.images/2019/11/29/trinity%202%201.jpg" alt="">
They'd spotted the tropical haven after seeing its picture in newspaper marketing when it was offered by Josef Roberts who introduced Australians to Red Bull.
Trinity Beach Palace had been fetching $1,250 a night on holiday rental sites, having become a holiday let since the Buttula's relocated to Brisbane's Ashgrove.
It's around 1,000 square metres and has a safari-themed den, a library, gym, sauna and golf practice range.

Former NRL champion Jarryd Hayne finally secured the sale of his Darlinghurst investment terrace on the weekend.
Hayne secured the deal after he reduced the asking price for a third time to $2.2 million last month, with the buyer paying $2.15 million. It was initially offered in July with $2.35 million hopes.
The two-time Dally M Medal winner had recently sought to have it rented out at $1100 a week.
The renovated terrace cost $1.58 million in 2013. The three-bedroom, two-bathroom 1890s property was bought when the suburb’s median house price was $1.05 million.
The current median for three-bedroom Darlinghurst terraces sits at $2 million, according to realestate.com.au, which tallied just 10 similar house sales over the past year.
Adam Regan and Ellen Trojkovic at the Our Estates agency were marketing the three-level terrace as “a chic inner-city haven”.
The West Avenue property was the priciest property in a portfolio that totalled $5 million at its 2013 peak exposure.
Hayne is currently in Perth, living and training with an evangelical Christian ministry organisation, Youth With A Mission, on a six-month course. He is on bail for aggravated sexual assault charges relating to an alleged incident in the Hunter Valley on grand final night last year.
Hayne, who contests the charges, has been excused from attending court until the call-over date in April next year.
Sydney estate agents reported 436 weekend auction sales, adding to the 1300 private treaty sales of the past week across NSW. CoreLogic calculated that the clearance rate dipped to 78%.
The priciest Saturday result was on Marine Parade, Maroubra, which sold for $7 million through Phillips Pantzer Donnelley agent Alexander Phillips. The four-bedroom 1950s home on a 544 square metre block was offered for the first time in half a century with a $6.5 million guide.
Home loan arrears listings continue to decline, according to Standard &amp; Poor Global ratings. The latest Australian prime mortgage defaults data showed a decline in the Standard &amp; Poor’s Performance Index (SPIN) to 1.36% in September down from 1.41% a month earlier.
The report warned self-employed borrowers could put pressure on mortgage arrears in any weakening economic environment, given the greater sensitivity of business cash flows.
NSW arrears fell. However, arrears rose in Western Australia, South Australia and Tasmania.
S &amp; P noted that “stronger refinancing activity and recent tax cuts are having a positive effect on debt serviceability”.
The improvement was more pronounced for owner-occupier loan mortgage arrears, which declined to 1.58% from 1.61% a month earlier.
Mortgage arrears on investor loan remained unchanged at 1.38%.

Sunrise presenter Natalie­ Barr has bought back in to Mosman, a year after she sold her last home.

This is the third house she and her husband, TV commercial­ editor Andrew Thompson have owned in the pricey suburb.

While the ink hasn’t yet dried on the purchasing paperwork, they are tipped to have paid somewhere near its $2.8 million guide.

The renovated 1920s home on 430 square metres, behind a picket-fenced front garden and classic facade, has four bedrooms and two bathrooms.

Upstairs there’s a full-floor parents retreat with an ensuite.

Its asking price was consistent during its lengthy 400 days on the market.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=8590]

The couple and their two sons have rented in Mosman since selling their nearby Federation­ home for $3.6 million last December.

Barr has been at Seven for more than two decades, having joined Seven News as a reporter in 1994.

She’s been the news presenter on Sunrise since 2003. Mosman is the location­ where fellow Sunrise panellist Mark Beretta has lived and also traded homes for a number of years.

The suburb has also been popular among presenters at the besieged Nine network.

The recently departed Today host Georgie Gardner moved in to a $6 million home last year.

Sonia Kruger, who is jumping from Nine to Seven, also calls Mosman home.

And Karl Stefanovic rents there with his wife, designer Jasmine.

The Barr family has been renting a five-bedroom home near Sirius Cove for about $2500 a week.

Their previous abode was a 1910 home which had been renovated after they paid $3,235,000.

The couple were upsizing at the time, selling their nearby first Mosman home for $2,891,999.

They had paid $1.28 million in 2002.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=28100]

Mosman’s four-bedroom median price is currently $3.6 million. Mosman has 117 properties for sale listed on realestate­.com.au.

Based on five years of sales, Mosman has seen a compound growth rate of 5.7 per cent for houses.

It’s the busiest auction suburb­ this weekend, according to CoreLogic, with 17 homes under the hammer.

The two-level property in a renovated art deco block of six has two bedrooms, one bathroom and a landscaped garden.
Belle Property Bondi Junction’s Lucas McKay sold the unit in three weeks.

Motorcylce tycoon Warren Fraser and wife Catherine have sold their Palm Beach weekender for $4.5 million post-auction.
They had a $5.2 million guide through LJ Hooker Palm Beach agent Peter Robinson for the hillside Ralston Road residence (above), which cost $4.5 million three years ago.
They apparently haven’t got up there much since what seemed a savvy purchase as it had sold for $4.65 million back in 2006.

It has been bought by north shore buyers who will make it their permanent home.
The Frasers have resided in the popular The Residence complex overlooking Hyde Park since they sold their 1857 Hunters Hill riverfront estate, Windermere, to controversial Chinese buyer Sam Guo, aka the “Chinese Gatsby”.

The former Channel 9 boss David Gyngell and his television presenter wife Leila McKinnon have pocketed $8.4 million from the delayed settlement sale of their Dover Heights home.
The stylish couple spend most of their time these days in the Byron Bay hinterland, ­enjoying family life and attending to a Northern Rivers tourism property empire.
Gyngell, the son of the late legendary Channel 9 boss Bruce Gyngell, bought the clifftop oceanfront Wentworth Street home for $1.15 million in 1998 when it was a 1940s cottage.
His sister Briony Fitzgerald and mother Anne helped design the mansion after its $1.5 million 2014 rebuild, which was then ­featured in Belle magazine.
“Every room, including the bathrooms, captures views of the ocean, coast or harbour in the distance. On a clear day you can see from Palm Beach to Wollongong,” the ­magazine reported.
The media couple retain their renovated Bondi Beach investment property.
Their off-market buyers in the deal, done this time last year, were Adam and Alex Somerville from North Bondi, who are in the business of retirement villages.
Meanwhile the current boss at Nine, Hugh Marks, who took the reins from Gyngell in 2015, has decided to list his South Coast weekender (pictured above and below).
Marks bought the weekender, set on 40 hectare at Broughton Vale, in April last year, three months before the merger of Nine television network with the Fairfax print remnants was announced.

Belle Property Berry agent Nick Dale, who sold the property to Marks for $4,075,000, has the relisting, but is not offering any public price guidance on its realestate.com.au listing.
Buyers are being told on inquiry to expect to pay “low to mid $4 million”.
Realestate.com.au ranks Broughton Vale as a high ­demand market with 1680 visits per listing per month, as against the 730 NSW average.

It was bought from Alan Hyde, the former NEC and Hewlett-Packard boss, and wife Joanne, who had commissioned TDDP Architects to design the home on ecological and sustainable principles.
There is natural bushland with a permanent creek, waterfall and rock pools.

Retired Cronulla Sharks legend Paul Gallen and wife Anne have expanded their property holdings in the Shire, adding another commercial property.
They have bought the Caringbah showroom premises leased on a short term to the Bedding Barn on Taren Point Road.
The bulky goods retail building cost $1.9 million, having $2.45 million hopes two year ago.
It was offered with even bigger warehouse development approval.
The 669 square mete offering went to auction where it passed in on a $2 million vendor bid.
The successful agent Jon Brookes marketed it as having exposure to 55,000 cars a day.
The couple secured laundromat premises in Cronulla earlier this year which cost $2.2 million.
Gallen, who retired after pulling on the jersey 349 times, including the 2016 premiership, recently published his autobiography, Heart and Soul.
It was launched at the Berkelouw Bookstore in Cronulla after being co-written by my colleague David Riccio.
The Gallens have called Burraneer home, with bay views from the hill, since 2012.

The Gladesville residential development site of the former Sydney madam Jamelie Lahood has been listed for sale.
Khoury &amp; Partners agent Anthony Khoury says the 715 square metre property, now with lapsed development approval, “will be sold”.
Ryde City Council had granted conditional approval to develop a six-storey, 23-apartment complex on the Stansell Street offering which cost $2.85 million in 2015.
The adjacent service station on Victoria Road is also up for sale, so developers are working on the possibility of a consolidated site.
The neighbouring 2090 square metre site has been listed by Caltex through CBRE agent Mark Wizel and Stonebridge’s Lincoln Blackledge.
Lahood’s property portfolio has caveats on the titles from Fadi Ibrahim and the ATO.
Ibrahim is suing her after their business relationship had an unhappy ending, The Sunday Telegraph’s Snitch column reported recently.
Ibrahim claims she defaulted on a $2.5 million loan.
Lahood, who ran Camperdown bordello Stilettos for then-fiance Eddie Hayson, defends the matter in court next month.
