Broadbeach Waters is a high-end suburb of the Gold Coast, known for its luxury homes, boutiques, cafes, restaurants and live music venues. Domain’s latest data reveals the median house price for the suburb is $2 million, highlighting a surge of 76.2 per cent over five years. The Gold Coast mansion that was used as the backdrop for The Bachelors has gone under the hammer in a record multi-million dollar deal The stunning Broadbeach Waters property was used as the location of Bachelor spin-off The Bachelors starring Felix Von Hofe, Thomas Malucelli and Jed McIntosh The Gold Coast Bulletin reported that the home went under an eye-watering $18million contract back in March 2024, but the deal failed to settle six months later. The home went under the hammer for an impressive $16 million earlier this month, and despite a $2million reduction, still managed to set records for the area. The publication reported that the sale eclipsed the previous Broadbeach Waters record of $15.1million.  'I think most people are realising there are very few homes available on the river at the moment in that $12 to $30m price point,' agent Michael Kollosche said. 'If you look at the central Gold Coast right now there are four to five available on the riverfront in that price point.' The Monaco Street mansion last sold for $14.5 million in October 2021. The significant sale also broke records for a Broadbeach Waters property at that time. The two-storey mansion includes four large bedrooms, five bathrooms, a gym and outdoor pool. Created by celebrated Gold Coast designer Jared Poole, the home includes waterfront views and an impressive position on the river. An upper-level balcony offers stunning views of nearby Surfers Paradise cityscape. Coming in an a whopping 2,400 sqm, it includes a gym, fireplace and wet bar, as well as an alfresco entertaining space set on a waterfront pavilion. Covering almost 2,400sqm with an incredible 115.1m of water frontage, the mansion has an open-plan kitchen and opulent dining areas. The mansion was a massive upgrade from the $6.3million 'French chateau' in Dural, in Sydney's west, used for Jimmy Nicholson's season. Before Dural, The Bachelor and The Bachelorette were filmed at a $2.3million property in Oxford Falls, in Sydney's north. The stunning Gold Coast property only served as the backdrop for one season of The Bachelors, with production heading south to Melbourne for he subsequent season.  A $6.4million mansion in the swanky Melbourne suburb of Brighton provided he luxe backdrop for the show's eleventh and final season.  One of Sydney's historic waterfront gems was recently unveiled as the secret filming location of the anticipated Samantha Armytage-helmed Bachelor spin-off The Golden Bachelor.

They enjoy relaxing among their waterfront residences, strolling along sun-kissed beaches, and exploring peaceful canals by kayak or boat. House prices for the suburb have increased by 17.5 per cent over the past 12 months, contributing to the 76.3 per cent jump in the past five years, according to Domain’s latest House Price Report. These figures underscore the desirability and investment potential of the area. “The riverfront thoroughfare of Monaco Street is one of the best on the Gold Coast, and we anticipate that supply levels here will remain extremely tight,” says Michael Kollosche managing director at Kollosche. “This street forms part of the golden triangle, a cluster of 10 highly sought-after streets due to their wide canals and larger-than-average block sizes.” Kollosche says one of Broadbeach Waters’ defining features is the spectacular views, adding extra sparkle to the already beautiful suburb. “Most properties capture amazing Surfers Paradise and Broadbeach skyline views, which makes it so special,” he says. “People find it difficult to leave the area once they’ve discovered such views – just one of the many reasons it’s such a tightly held market.” Amid the bustling energy of the Gold Coast, Broadbeach Waters stands apart with its unique sense of solitude and an affluent suburban vibe. Even those who work here, like Khianna Chapman at Breathe Holistic Health, appreciate the stark contrast that defines the suburb. “Even though some big-name facilities like Pacific Fair and the Star Casino are conveniently close by, this area nevertheless remains quieter,” says Chapman. “It’s the antithesis of the hustle and bustle often seen throughout the coast.”  Yellowtrace: A ‘pet-proof

tree-changers charging out of Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane, median weekly house rents in a string of suburbs across the Gold Coast and the Sunshine Coast soared by up to 35 per cent in 12 months to reach the milestone, Domain figures show. Broadbeach Waters is now the state’s most expensive place to rent a house at a median asking rent of $1300 per week – up 8.3 per cent in a year. Acreage hotspot Tallebudgera is the second-priciest place for rentals at $1250, with Bundall, Clear Island Waters, Currumbin, Paradise Point and Tallai tying for third at $1200. In Currumbin, house rents soared by 34.8 per cent – the second-biggest annual rent hike for a Queensland suburb. Airlie Beach, perched off the Whitsundays, collected the highest weekly rent growth after unit rents climbed a colossal 41.3 per cent to a median asking rent of $650 per week. Domain chief of research and economics, Dr Nicola Powell, said the insatiable appetite for lifestyle homes is turbocharging rent prices in coastal and acreage hotspots. She added that while Brisbane tenants have maxed out their budgets in many of the capital’s suburbs, the lifestyle sector remains immune. “When you look at areas that are seeing whoppers of a rent increase in Queensland it’s places like Airlie Beach and Minyama on the Sunshine Coast. There, the lifestyle is an undercurrent driving rental growth in prime locations and while some of these areas are coming off their peak rates of growth, I do think the overarching trend is still the same,” Powell said. Would you leave Sydney and move to Melbourne to afford to buy property? ‘Under pressure’: Why more home owners are selling properties now Want to rent an apartment? The cities where it could cost you as much as renting a house “The fact that there are now so many suburbs on the Gold Coast with a rental price tag of 1000 bucks a week or more shows it’s a magnet for that lifestyle location and at that price point I don’t think that’s ever going to change. “That’s partly because they are so highly sought after and in places like Currumbin, there’s not much supply.” Hayley Malone, of John Reid Real Estate, said interstate demand was driving the prestige rental sector, with high-end family homes in Broadbeach Waters fetching up to $3000 per week. She said despite that demand for luxe lifestyle homes across the city had slightly waned over recent weeks, with premium listings now taking up to a month to lease out. “That said, anything up to $1000 per week is incredibly popular and we’re seeing a lot of families and couples in that sector,” said Malone. “So while our market isn’t as intense as it was during the height of the pandemic, anything under $1000 still gets snapped up right away.” Head of property management at Kollosche Todd Madgwick said the luxury market had indeed slowed but said they were still clocking eye-watering transactions. In the past three months the prestige agency leased out a handful of homes for more than $4000 a week, including a home on the iconic Hedges Avenue or “millionaire’s row” to an unnamed celebrity for $10,000. Other recent results include $6000 per week for a home in Mermaid Beach’s Albatross Avenue and $4,250 per week for a property in Burleigh Heads. “Interstate vendors who are moving to the Gold Coast and want to research the market before they buy are driving that demand. “But then there’s locals who are doing a large build locally and need somewhere to live. We’ve also had some overseas groups that are working in the movie industry locally.” Asking house rents in Doonan added 5 per cent to reach a median $1050 per week while Minyama houses rose 27.4 per cent to reach $1000. Harcourts Noosa property manager Kirsty Munro said mostly cashed up Melbourne tenants and some Brisbane sea-changers were driving demand. “I find in that high-end rental market a lot of tenants are actually still living and working in Melbourne, but they’re renting a place up here and just going back and forth between the cities,” she said. “Some people from Brisbane are even doing the same.” In the prestige sector she said rents typically cap out at $2000 per week, with a striking four-bedroom, three-bathroom home in Noosaville recently rented for $2650 a week. “That was a fully brand new home and the owners thought of everything. They wanted the new tenants to just be able to pick up a bag it and move in,” Munro said.
