An enticing opportunity to secure a private estate on 78ha, including half a mountain and a chunk of hinterland with a waterfall and swimming hole, has sparked a flood of interest.
The sprawling property at 1730 Currumbin Creek Road in the lush Currumbin Valley in Queensland features three separate dwellings across seven titles, for a circa $10 million price.

This sort of land size, almost 194 acres, is rarely found.” This rare offering features three dwellings and 78ha of lush land.

The original homestead is tasteful and spacious.

The estate has a multitude of potential uses.

Picture: realestate.com.au The three dwellings are enveloped by a botanical garden, with hundreds of imported rare and endangered species, and a substantial natural subtropical rainforest. “The vendors are moving on to the next chapter in life,” Ms Watkins said of the reason for the sale. There's been a huge amount of interest already.
