A luxury home with a rooftop putting green and 360-degree views is sending potential buyers into a frenzy.

No.58B Burgess Street at Kings Beach has attracted almost 70,000 online views and is poised to sell for a fortune.

ELITE Lifestyle Properties lead agent Brooke Walters, who is the son of Brisbane Broncos legend Kerrod, was confident “surging interest” in the four-bedroom, seven-garage property would translate into a record sale for Kings Beach, and possibly for Caloundra.

“It’s arguably the best property listed in the suburb and offers a rare opportunity to secure a property of this calibre,” he said via a press release.

“I’m confident this sale will eclipse the previous sales record of $4 million for the suburb, and potentially $6 million for the postcode (4551), which continues to defy broader economic conditions by performing extremely well.

“There’s been plenty of interest with a number of interstate and even international inquiries, including from the US, UK, Singapore and New Zealand.

“The listing has received more than 69,000 online views – which is way above average for a prestige home in this price guide and location.”

Mr Walters said a contract on the 2009 MBA Runner-up House of the Year, which occupies a prime 1106sqm site, had recently fallen over, prompting the vendor to now sell at auction on May 21.

“It really is in a league of its own,” he said.

“It’s equivalent to a lavish, five-star resort and sits on one of the best, elevated blocks in Kings Beach, with spectacular views both north and south over the ocean.

“It’s been clear to me from the get-go that this was going to be a record-breaking home.”

The property includes a guest house separated from the main residence by an elevated walkway.

Designed by the distinguished Phil Darwen, the property features a self-contained guest house separated from the main dwelling by an elevated walkway over the backyard entertaining area.

Other highlights include:

  • a rooftop putting green;
  • portholes in the walls, which give underwater views into a second-level 25m lap pool;
  • fully equipped bar and cinema room;
  • four-person elevator to three levels; and
  • a large gym and steam room.

Mr Walters said the Sunshine Coast was “continuing to show its resilience with property prices still well above pre-COVID-19 levels despite interest rate rises and other cost-of-living pressures”.

“Buyers, not just those wanting up-market properties, continue to be attracted to the Sunshine Coast because it offers a better value-for-money market compared to Brisbane and the Gold Coast, and it has such a desirable lifestyle,” he said.
