Hemsworth’s Byron home, with the 50m pool being built on the left.
A state-of-the-art home valued at as much as $50m, according to recent evaluations, sitting in one of the most sought-after regional locations on the planet that boasts an almost unrivalled laid-back lifestyle with privacy and seclusion.
The home took three years to build and boasts eye-popping district views – all the way to the Pacific Ocean, six bedrooms, a media room, indoor and outdoor gyms, a spa, games area, a bowling alley and ample outdoor space.
But it’s the home’s peerless 50m infinity pool which is proving to be the biggest talking point.
At 50m long, the pool is obviously Olympic length compared to the 10m-12m pond most of us mere mortals who are lucky enough to have a pool to call our own, have.

The home offers the ultimate in privacy and seclusion.
However it’s another aspect of the resort-like luxury pool that fans of Chris and his wife Elsa are raving about.
According to the couple’s followers on social media, the pool “goes on forever’ and looking at the pics posted it certainly seems to be the case, at least in some images, that the pool extends all the way into the ocean.
Like many Aussie families, the pool deck and its surrounds are at the focal point of entertaining, especially during the warmer months and the Hemsworths have posted plenty of pool porn pics on their social media accounts to display the 50m stunner, that certainly lives up to the moniker – infinity -.

Where does the pool stop and the ocean start?
In the pictures, the Hemsworths feature their contemporary kitchen, which features plenty of white, beige and grey tones with wooden accents, then leads out into a large dining space that extends seamlessly onto the outdoor pool terrace which boasts incredible area views and a panorama of the Pacific Ocean in the distance.
In some pics it’s hard to work out where the pool ends and the ocean starts, which makes the luxury oasis the perfect place to soak up some rays.
It’s estimated the pool could have cost as much as $500,000 to build.
Watery Nirvana.
In a recent interview with Hello Magazine, Elsa gave a rare insight into the family life of the celebrity couple, and the outdoors is very much a part of it.
“We’re all very sporty,” she said.
“At home in Byron Bay, Chris and I love to take the kids surfing, riding or walking our dogs along the beach.”
Then they get to go back to the pool and just soak up the good life.
