5 McMillan Court
Southport 4215

Lavish Gold Coast waterfront living and entertaining finds a new benchmark inside 'Alston', a magnificent estate set in one of the most sought-after riverfront addresses.

A rare 3,442m2 waterfront allotment, with its private sandy beach and skyline vistas spanning Main Beach to Broadbeach, sets the stage for this stately manor to shine.

Architect Michael Witty captures the elegance, sophistication, and liveability of the European villa in an exquisite residence nestled within the sanctum of mature trees and lush landscaped gardens.

Enter via a grand porte-cochere and secure wrought-iron gates to arrive at a palatial 7.8-metre high foyer where a stunning dual staircase and grand chandelier make a statement of regal proportion, with a lift connecting all levels.

Intricate craftsmanship builds layers of character throughout – from hand-laid parquetry flooring, ornate timber joinery and wainscoting, to decorative cornices, coffered ceilings, black and white chequered marble tiles, opulent chandeliers, and elegantly arched windows.

A pavilion layout positions residential wings around a central fountain courtyard, while French doors invite swathes of natural light and permit seamless flow to multiple alfresco spaces, verandahs, terraces, private balconies, and a 360-degree rooftop viewing platform.

Entertaining is encouraged with a hotel-style marble bar and wine room, a home cinema, and billiards room, while caterers will make use of a cool room off the Gaggenau kitchen. Main living and a banquet dining room spill onto a covered waterfront terrace.

A long list of luxury inclusions beckons – the indoor swimming pool, gymnasium, spa, and sauna are enclosed in a cavernous atrium, while an executive office and a two-level library with a dramatic spiral staircase allow for work amid the play.

A sumptuous master suite, with walk-in robe and opulent ensuite occupies the upper southern wing, while three additional bedrooms, each with an ensuite, are accompanied by a large living room and kitchenette.

A deep-water pontoon with twin jet ski docks and an expansive timber jetty opens up an easy passage to the Broadwater, Marina Mirage, and the Gold Coast Seaway. Prized land toys are safely stowed in the secure five-car basement garage.
