‘Unrivalled lifestyle’: distinctive towers’ apartments rarely offered to open market

The multimillion-dollar sale of a penthouse has reinforced the lure of a prominent point on the Sunshine Coast.

No. 15/1 Pacific Boulevard at Point Cartwright changed hands for $3.65 million in early July, after it attracted plenty of interest from Australia and abroad.

The split level home, with four bedrooms and three bathrooms, boasts stunning views across the bay of Mooloolaba.

It’s within the 16-unit Eliza Towers: one of four landmark apartment buildings that dot the point and can be seen from miles away. The others are Cartwright (26 units), Breakwater (20), Mariner Point (17), and Point Cartwright (6).

The penthouse was the subject of attention from local downsizers, Brisbane-based professionals looking for a holiday home and overseas Buyers.

The residence, which was sold by an elderly couple who downsized into a smaller home, was ultimately bought by locals who were moving from a large family home on the waterfront, into something with views and low maintenance.

When real estate there does become available, it attracts plenty of attention despite a changing market.
