<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.

<img alt="First look: New 139-apartment plans revive long-stalled Campbelltown city centre site" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="c8b3d2d3-c561-4bfc-a5d9-a68c0c10dac1" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Campbelltown%20da1.png?VersionId=AeAEyJU02Gk2k5noUj2StziCvdQ7fW4B" />

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.

Josh Altman, from the hit TV show Million Dollar Listing Los Angeles, is headed to Australia keen to check out our trophy home offerings.
The celebrity real estate agent says his celebrity rolodex was "second to none."
<img src="https://www.urban.com.au/images/2016/03/7/Unknown.jpeg" alt="" width="252" height="252">
"I sit in cars and drive around with clients, everybody from Kim and Kanye to rocket scientists, NBA all stars, heads of states and princes."
"I'm really blessed with the opportunity to do that."
Josh Altman, who replaced Chad Rogers six seasons ago on the series, has sold over US$2 billion worth of property during his real estate career.
But none yet in Australia for his client list that includes Kim Kardashian, Kanye West, Britney Spears, Aston Kutcher, Miley Cyrus and many more.
It won't be his first trip down under, however this will be all business, including giving motivational lectures and hosting private lunches with his business partner and older brother Matt, who together form quite the formidable team.
They'll be looking at doing property deals.
<img src="https://www.urban.com.au/images/2016/03/7/unspecified.jpeg" alt="">
When asked whether he will be looking at some trophy homes in Sydney or Melbourne, he replied "are you kidding me? Absolutely!"
"Matt and I don't like sitting on beaches," he said.
No doubt leading Sydney estate agent Bill Malouf at LJ Hooker Double Bay will be the first call as last year Million Dollar Listing New York selling machine Fredrik Eklund caught up with Malouf when he breezed through.
Malouf has just signed up two prestige Point Piper listings on exclusive Wolseley Road, at 110 and 158 which will potentially sell for $40 million and $20 million plus respectively. 
<img src="https://www.urban.com.au/images/2016/03/7/unspecified-1.jpeg" alt="">
Josh has started filming his sixth season with the Bravo Foxtel series again dominating his every minute. 
"If you ask me, I feel like I've had cameras in my face my entire life at this point"
"We film the show ten months of the year, most reality shows film for two or three months tops," he said.
He said that he gets more listings and more clients because of it showing across the world.
"I'll wake up in the morning and I'll have 10 e-mails from Australia and I'll know that's the show."
Last year John sold about US$1 million of real estate every day. 
Josh has also started developing his own properties on the side and has flipped over a dozen in the last few years.
Among his record sales was the late Hollywood film producer Richard Zanuck's one bedroom property, which spread over 10,000 square feet (around 929 square metres), sold for US$20.1 million.
The property, which featured a custom designed Arnold Schwarzenegger gym has since been knocked down by his client who's building a $100 million house.
He is scheduled to be wed on April 2 to Heather Bilyeu and when asked how the preparations were going, he colourfully prompted "it makes real estate deals look easy my man."
He also invited us all and said jokingly says he give all the guests copies of his new book, It's Your Move as the wedding gifts.
Originally from Massachusetts, Altman moved to LA 13 years ago earning US$7.50 in the mail room before creating his fortune. 
He will speaking in Sydney at The Star Casino on June 14, where he promises to sprinkle his talk with celebrity stories.
Early Bird Tickets start at $99 from <a href="https://www.joshaltman.com.au/" target="_blank">www.joshaltman.com.au</a>

Singer songwriter Melissa Higgins has sold her warehouse conversion in Melbourne's Abbotsford.
The red-brick residence has three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a study and an outdoor entertaining terrace.
Architecturally designed, the converted warehouse has maintained original features such as high herringbone ceilings and exposed Oregon pillars.
Higgins bought the property for $1.825 million in 2012. More than $2.1 million was expected.
<a href="https://kayburton.com.au/properties/view/353449-21a-mollison-street-abbotsford-3067-sale" target="_blank">Expressions of interest</a> were set to close through Kay &amp; Burton listing agent Sarah Case on February 29.

The Brunswick cottage made famous for its feature in Beyoncé's music video 'No Angel' is for sale.
The 141 sqm property is due to go to auction on February 27 with a $470,000 to $510,000 price tag.
The pop queen graced the porch of <a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/property-house-vic-brunswick-121803930" target="_blank">20 Beith Street</a> dressed in a leotard, fur coat and heels in the 2013 music video.
The video was shot during her Australia leg of 'The Mrs Carter Show World Tour' and was the only scene which was shot outside of Houston.
Nelson Alexander agent Luke Sacco highlighted the homes use in the music video in the advert, suggesting the buyer would fall 'crazy in love' with the property.
He also admitted the two bedroom Edwardian house isn't flawless and said it needs to be completely renovated. 
<img src="https://cdn.newsapi.com.au/image/v1/3157b2b394bda410dbc4c121b9b825ea?width=650" width="406" height="305">
The first open for inspection for the house is scheduled to take place on Saturday afternoon and Luke is hoping the Beyoncé connection will create interest.
The 80 year old owner at the time admitted she didn't know who Beyoncé was and was given $300 to allow permission for her house to be used in the shoot.
The median price range for a house in Brunswick is $787,500, according to CoreLogic RP Data.

Actor Richard Roxburgh, star of Rake, and his wife, the SBS TV celebrity chef Silvia Colloca have reportedly bought at Newport for $3 million.
But they are yet to sell <a href="/news/actor-richard-roxburgh-lists-bilgola-home-for-sunday-auction">their five bedroom Bilgola Plateau home</a>. It now comes priced at $1.9 million plus.
Their northern beaches modern beach-style retreat was pulled from recent scheduled auction by James Baker at Raine and Horne Palm Beach.
With views over Pittwater,<a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/property-house-nsw-bilgola-121101482" target="_blank"> the modern two level home on Lower Plateau Road </a>was initially marketed to fetch around $2 million. The couple added a deck off the master bedroom since paying $1.62 million in 2009.
They are planning on staying on the northern beaches having bought on the cliff at Newport, Fairfax Media advised.

Laffing Waters, the former Pittwater retreat of knockabout Australian actor Chips Rafferty, set on a 2,538-square-metre block at Lovett Bay north of Sydney, has been sold. 
The <a href="https://uniqueestates.com.au/listings/residential_sale-322747-lovett-bay/" target="_blank">deep waterfront bushland property</a>, which is accessible only by water, has been sold by the Dunn family after 28 years of ownership, and four years of seeking a buyer.
It is a vastly different home than the rustic one Rafferty, otherwise known as John Goffage, and his wife, Ellen, had in the late 1940s. The rugged movie star of The Overlanders, a tale about the hardships of Australian outback life, had paid £1,205 for the land and built the home amid the waterfront towering gums.
The Dunn family purchased the first of their two Sturdee Place holdings, now with beach and jetty, in the late 1980s for $550,000. 
Much changed but the backyard still has Chip's leftover beer bottles! Raffety’s own display wall of beer bottles, some bearing the date 1952. Around $3.55 million was being sought by Deborah Cullen at Unique Estates for the four bedroom offering.
The buyers from the inner west were getting their boat licence last week.

Model and actress Liz Hurley has sold her redundant Midland home for £9 million, according to the UK press. 
The six bedroom Ampney Knowle (pictured above), near Cirencester, Gloucestershire had been listed so she could concentrate on decorating and furnishing Donnington Hall at Ledbury, Herefordshire.
The larger 13 bedroom Donnington Hall property was bought in 2012 with her ex, former Australian cricketer Shane Warne, with his half share interest bought out last October.
“It’s no secret that I bought Donnington Hall with my former fiancé and it was a tough decision to choose which house to keep as I love them both," Liz told the The Sunday Times Home supplement after her 2014 decision to list Ampney Knowle.
The swimwear designer bought stone-built Ampney Knowle for £3.3 million in 2003. Its sale was <a href="https://www.mirror.co.uk/3am/celebrity-news/liz-hurley-sells-farm-bought-6182230" target="_blank">reported by the weekend Mirror</a>, albeit with an inaccurate headline.
It is set in 450 acres of Cotswolds countryside, has six bedrooms, a guest annexe, cottages in the grounds and outbuildings.
She had initially asked £6 million just for the house and guest cottage but there were no takers, so she then offered all the farmland at Ampney Knowle near Cirencester, Glos.

My Kitchen Rules judge and co-host Manu Feildel has bought a Maroubra semi for $1.9 million.
Manu Feildel and wife Clarissa Weerasena won't be far from co-host Pete Evans and his fiancee Nicole Robinson, who are undertaking renovations to the Malabar residence they bought in 2013 for $1.44 million.
Manu Feildel bought the five bedroom 1930s semi off market through Shane Vincent at Belle, who sold it previously in 2008 when at NG Farah.
It last traded pre-renovation (pictured above) in 2008 at $691,000 when sold to John and Christine Nettle of Nettle Constructions whose newly renovated home had two potential buyers placing offers with the property quickly sold prior to auction.
The renovation (pictured below from Google streetview) turned it from a two bedroom into a five bedroom home.

Kerry Stokes, the 16th richest person in Australia, and Peter Murray have purchased Woodlana Station, one of Kangaroo Island’s finest large scale farming properties for $4.7 million.
Their operations on Kangaroo Island and the Fleurieu Peninsula now exceed 10,000ha. 
Colliers International’s Jesse Manuel, Tim Altschwager and Nick Dean secured the sale of the 2,823 ha landholding located at Cassini on Kangaroo Island’s central north coast.
Carrying in excess of 500 Angus beef breeders plus progeny and bulls and around 6,000 Merino and Merino cross ewes plus lambs and weaners, agent Jesse Manuel said the property attracted interest from a diverse range of buyers including Mid North and Eyre Peninsula farmers seeking higher rainfall country, as well as some of the larger beef and wool producers on Kangaroo Island.
Also in the running were city-based investors and Asian investors, predominantly Chinese who are attracted to the Kangaroo Island brand.
“Chinese investors in particular have made several investments on the island in recent times in the food and beverage, tourism and farming sectors. For clean food production, the remote location has significant benefits from a branding perspective,” Mr Manuel said.
There was demand from some of South Australia’s substantial graziers and pastoralists given values can be as much as 30% lower than values in similar rainfall regions on the mainland, such as Limestone Coast.
Woodlana is located 25km west of Kingscote, with main access to the property from Springs Road, which runs off North Coast Road. It last traded at around $6 million in 2009.
The business duo also jointly own a number of other properties including 4050ha on Kangaroo Island stocked with 2500 Riverleas-blood Angus cattle.
They own Balquhidder Station, at Parawa on the Fleurieu Peninsula, which was bought in 2007 in a $20 million walk in-walk out deal.
The 3064-hectare property is run by Kerry Stokes' long-time business partner Peter Murray. Balquhidder sources bulls from Shorthorn Stud Weebollabolla, near Moree in New South Wales, where the Munro family has been breeding Shorthorns since the 1850s.
Peter Murray has been a client for more than five decades.
Buyers for Balquhidder cattle have come from SA, Victoria and Bowral in the NSW Southern Highlands.
