They’ve weathered Scottish winters and conquered Sydney’s chaos, but this Southport showstopper is where the Fell family put down roots.

“Any time of year you will find me on the balcony, overlooking the water – usually with a glass of wine or gin,” Ms Fell said.

“This has been the most incredible place to live – the community here is absolutely beautiful.”
With their children now grown and beginning to fly the nest, downsizing is reluctantly on the cards for the Fells.
Their meticulously renovated three-level home features five hotel-style bedrooms, each with its own ensuite, plus a sixth bedroom or study, making it perfect for hosting family and guests.

Designed for both relaxation and entertaining, the property features multiple spacious living areas, a gourmet kitchen with a walk-in pantry, and protected alfresco spaces for year-round enjoyment.
This area overlooks the resort-style pool and manicured gardens.
Positioned on a secure 636 sqm block with stunning river and skyline views, this home offers the ultimate Gold Coast lifestyle just minutes from everything.
The property looks out to the river and city skyline.
Originally from Scotland, Ms Fell said she had loved the welcoming atmosphere of the area.
“When you live on the beachfront all you see is the ocean, but here you can see people out walking their dogs, children playing in the park – it has ticked every box for us and I don’t think we’ll ever find a viewpoint like this again,” she said.
The home’s sleek, modern design is complemented by high-end finishes, lush landscaping, and a thoughtful layout that seamlessly blends indoor and outdoor living.

Atones, timbers and the extensive use of neutral tones feature throughout while the crisp white facade ensures the house has a commanding street presence.
With a double lockup garage, additional off-street parking, and top-tier security features, it’s a private sanctuary in one of the Gold Coast’s most sought-after locations.
Matt Gates and Jack Tickner of Ray White Prestige are marketing the property.
