<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 couple Brooke McClymont and Adam Eckersley are heading to the bush.
They're set to build a home at Wang Wauk, a little known location on the Mid North Coast, some 40 kilometres inland from Tuncurry.
They've recently secured a 40 hectare land parcel paying $465,000.
The property, which has two creeks and five dams, has been running 18 beef cattle.
<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/2019/2/22/WANG%20WAUK%202.jpg" alt="">
The couple are yet to lodge plans for their new home.
The couple, who sang on The Ray Hadley Morning 2GB program, are promoting their debut album, Adam and Brooke, through a regional NSW tour.
“We know that a lot of people out there don’t get a lot of entertainment so we thought, lets go to them,” Brooke told Hadley.
<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/2019/2/22/WANG%20WAUK%203.jpg" alt="">
They performed an emotional version of their third single Nothing Left to Win.
Between them they have 12 Golden Guitars, two ARIA Awards and two APRAs.
Brooke is one third of the sister trio The McClymonts, while husband Adam, who she wed nearly a decade ago, fronts the Adam Eckersley Band.
The country musicians grew up on the same street in Grafton and were friends from a young age.
Between them they have two ARIA Awards, two ARPAs and 12 Golden Guitars.
The musical duo are moving from their Central Coast residence in Mannering Park, where they're asking $629,900 for their long held home.
They paid $227,000 in 2009 but have extended and renovated the home over their decade long ownership.
They added a separate recording studio to the property, which features a drum kit and four guitars proudly hung on the wall next to a poster of legendary guitarist Jimmy Hendrix.
The fully renovated home has four bedrooms, two bathrooms and a rear yard on its 605 square metres.
Stone Real Estate Toukley agents Ron Coleman and Shaun Diviney have the listing.
The youngest of The McClymont sisters, Mollie, calls Wollongong home with her husband Aaron Blackburn and their two kids, while Sam, who has just had her second baby with her pilot husband Ben Poxon, owns properties in the Lake Macquarie region.

A bayside Canada Bay property associated with the family of jailed bankrupt property developer Salim Mehajer is back up for sale again.
It is now on its third marketing campaign within the past year.
Its March 9 auction price guidance is $1.45 million to $1.6 million.
The Lyons Road West site with a rundown 1970s home on 470 square metres passed in at $1.6 million at its unsuccessful auction last November.
CIA Real Estate Auburn agent Joe Salah, who has the offering again, elicited bidding from two registered parties.
"I'm under instructions to sell for a very desperate vendor," he advised.
It was withdrawn from its auction last April.
It traded at $1.4 million in 2015 with plans to build a striking three-storey home, close to the 10th hole tee-off at the Barnwell Park golf course.
There is approval for a two-storey home valid only until October this year.
Its official land value is $1.35 million.

Property developers Glenice and Allan Mein are selling their New Farm riverfront home.
The Griffith Street property on an 875 sqm waterfront parcel is just a handful of homes that fronts the Brisbane River.
It has its own pontoon.

The existing post-war home spanning four levels including a rooftop entertaining space cost the Mein's $1.2 million in 1999.
The solid concrete and marble residence with five bedrooms also features a swimming pool, spa and sauna.

The Today Show host Georgie Gardner and her investment banker husband Tim Baker have listed their Woollahra investment property.
The move comes after the couple, who recently spent $6 million in Mosman, listed their <a href="/news/todays-georgie-gardner-lists-south-coast-holiday-home">South Coast holiday home at Culburra Beach</a>.
The Woollahra apartment has been a long term investment for the pair. Gardner bought the home in 1998, three years after she started working as a journalist.
It cost $346,000.
Set on the top floor of Araluen, a boutique block of 12, the two bedroom, one bathroom Edgecliff Road apartment has city views from its leafy balcony.
<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/2019/2/27/Gard2.jpg" alt="">
The unit includes original period features such as high ceilings, elegant period cornices and sash windows.
It was last advertised for rent at $570 a week in 2013.
The Agency's Bethwyn Richards and Anji Lake are marketing the apartment for a March 16 auction with a guide of $900,000.
The tightly held, 1930s block hasn't seen a sale since 2011. 
Another two bedroom apartment in the block, which is rented for $690 a week, is for sale with a guide of $760,000.

The Metropolis adman James Cooper and his wife, Rachel, a former Miss New Zealand, have reportedly snapped up the Bellevue trophy home, Allala.

The local paper, The Wentworth Courier suggested they secured it for between $11.5 million and $12 million.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=7758]

The thoroughly modern Buyeast buyers' agents Carli Skurnik and Jayden Hurvitz announced the deal on Instagram.

The sellers fund manager Ari Droga and his architect wife, Lisa, had initially sought $14 million after they bought Bonnington (pictured below), elsewhere in Bellevue Hill last October.

<img alt="" src="https://www.urban.com.au/images/2019/2/28/bonni.png">

The Drogas had listed the six-bedroom, two-storey family home<a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/sold/property-house-nsw-bellevue+hill-130386966"> </a>after their $20.32 million purchase at auction of <a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/sold/property-house-nsw-bellevue+hill-129191790" target="_blank">Bonnington </a>from the loss taking art dealer John Schaeffer.

They’d owned the Cranbrook Road home for 13 years.

It’s only the third time the property has sold since 1923.

The Today show host Georgie Gardner and her investment banker husband Tim Baker have listed their South Coast beach house retreat.
They've owned the humble family getaway at Culburra Beach since they paid $560,000 in 2007.
The listing of the three bedroom, two bathroom cottage comes just weeks after the couple upgraded from Artarmon to Mosman where they've spent $6 million.
They called Artarmon home for eight years.
The Artarmon sale was a windfall result having paid $1.95 million for the 1920s home in 2010 and securing for $4.2 million.
The beach home (above and below) across two levels on 835 sqm features open plan living and dining areas off the kitchen which flows to an undercover alfresco dining deck.
<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/2019/2/14/Gardner2.jpg" alt="">
It goes to auction March 20 through Ray White Callala Bay Culburra Beach agents Julie Gauci and Craig Hadfield.
<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/2019/2/14/Gardner3.jpg" alt="">
Agents described the Culburra Beach home as an "immaculate family beach house."
"Days can be spent swimming, surfing, fishing and walking the dog along the beach," the agent Julie Gauci at Ray White advised in her marketing material.
"There is a cycle way for a short trip to the shops.
"This home is in a sought after tranquil cul-de-sac with no through traffic," it said.
They are offering no public price guidance to buyers on the two storey house that does not come with water views.
Beachfront homes on Culburra Beach have peaked at $2.5 million, and non-beachfronts at around $1.25 million.
The beach is highly regarded given its ability to pull in swell and its variety of waves.
The region has produced some serious talent with the likes of Tyler, Owen and Mikey Wright and the Watson brothers have once called Culburra Beach home.
<div>
<div class="m_-4881534045794173925gmail-assets">
Around 42 per cent of homes in Culburra are owner occupied, with the rest used as holiday rentals.
The house provided "potential holiday rental income," Gauci said.

The redundant Malabar home of My Kitchen Rules judge Pete Evans and wife Nicola Robinson was among those withdrawn from weekend auction. 
<a id="LPlnk629852" class="x_OWAAutoLink" href="http://www.ngfarah.com.au/20363275/97-austral-street-malabar" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" data-auth="NotApplicable">The five-bedroom house</a> is still up for sale through Peter Goulding and Nick Ujvary of NG Farah Little Bay.
The couple have built a new home nearby.
The number of properties pulled from auction remains high with CoreLogic calculating 67 were withdrawn from weekend Sydney auction.
There had been progressively more withdrawals every Saturday so far this year with 12 on February 2; 26 pulled on February 9 and 42 on February 16.
My Kitchen Rules host, celebrity chef and author Peter Evans and his wife, the former glamour-model turned nutritionist Nicola Robinson, have finally upgraded in Malabar.
The couple are selling their now unneeded previous home (above and below).
It was back in 2014 when they bought a 1960s knockdown home with the intention of creating their family residence. The couple paid $1.27 million and have since built on the 580 sqm parcel at a cost of around $1 million.
The two-level, Metricon-designed home, which they moved into late last year, features a roof terrace. They’ve also got a dedicated ping pong room — Evans says the whole family are dedicated ping pong players.
It sits in exotic gardens that feature aloe trees, Mexican lilies and a climbing fig tree.
<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/2019/2/4/Evans2.jpg" alt="">
They have also installed a magnesium swimming pool, beside the enclosed trampoline for Evans’ daughters, Indii and Chilli. And their dog, Shikoba, is a fan of the pool, judging by their Instagram posts.
Evans and the family spent time over the summer break at their farm in Pottsville, in northern NSW between Byron Bay and the Gold Coast. They recently added an outdoor ice bath to the farm.
Evans has been in the spotlight in recent weeks, as MKR celebrates its 10th season. He has also created headlines when he recently reiterated his 2016 suggestion there was no need to wear sunscreen.
The controversial health food couple have now listed their redundant five-bedroom home which is just a few streets back from the beach.
NG Farah Little Bay agents Peter Goulding and Nick Ujvary told buyers similar homes are fetching prices between $2.5 million and $3 million.
The 2008 modern home on 330 sqm comes fitted with a designer commercial kitchen which opens on to a ground level wraparound ­courtyard.
Evans and Robinson have ­enhanced the size of the courtyard, which now features a swimming pool along with more entertaining space complete with barbecue and fireplace.
<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/2019/2/4/Evans3.jpg" alt="">
The upper level terrace, off the curved media room and master bedroom, has ocean views.
The couple, who wed in a secret ceremony in late 2016 on their farm, paid $1.44 million for the now redundant home in 2013.

Oroton boss Ross Lane lists Manly's only privately owned absolute beachfront

The former Coogee home of model Jennifer Hawkins and her then builder fiance Jake Wall was pulled from its weekend's scheduled auction.
It now comes with guidance of $3.2 million to $3.5 million.
Phillips Pantzer Donnelley agents Alexander Phillips and David Tyrell are marketing the home having initially sought $3.5 million when first listed, and then adjusting its buyers guide to $3.2 million. 
It is the home which Hawkins had difficulty selling seven years ago.
It was finally sold for $2.22 million in 2012 when the couple headed off to Sydney's northern beaches.
Hawkin noted after it took six months to sell in 2012 that "Wow.... the property market in Sydney is tough".
The Moore Street home, part of a duplex near Gordon's Bay, spans 240 square metres over its four levels.
It has three bedrooms, three bathrooms and an open plan kitchen, living and dining area that flows to the rear alfresco deck which has been reduced in size to allow more exposed pool.
The Coogee property was a bit of a baptism of fire in the world of property for Hawkins and Wall, who in recent times have made handsome profits from their property dealings.
They made a small loss on the 2002-built property following her four year ownership, buying for $2.27 million in 2008 and then selling in 2012, just before prices began to soar across in Sydney over the next five years.
