ROYALE GOLD COAST Breaks Its Own Record with Second Penthouse Sale for $19.568 Million

Ocean Road - 05.08.2025

Royale Gold Coast has once again made history, achieving its second record-breaking off-the-plan penthouse sale in just weeks. The newly released full-floor penthouse on level 36 has sold for $19,568,000 — following the $19,180,053 sale of the level 35 penthouse in late May. Together, these two transactions total more than $38 million, marking the highest off-the-plan apartment sales in Surfers Paradise history.

A Buyer Upgrade Inspired by the Build

Penthouse 3601 was purchased by a local Gold Coast businessman who initially secured a half-floor apartment in Royale shortly after the project launched. As construction progressed and the tower’s architectural form became more prominent, the buyer seized the opportunity to upgrade to the full-floor penthouse when it was released to the market.

Adrian Parsons, Managing Director of TOTAL Property Group, said the decision reflected the growing excitement around the development:

“Now that the tower is taking shape, buyers are truly beginning to appreciate the scale, elegance and quality of what’s being delivered… Royale’s architectural distinction and absolute beachfront location position it as one of the most prestigious residential offerings in Australia.”

Parsons noted that the majority of buyers are Australian — many local — purchasing with the intention to live in Royale, a strong vote of confidence in both the project and the Gold Coast property market.

Vision and Craftsmanship

Royale Gold Coast is being delivered by DD Living, led by property veteran David Devine, with construction by Hutchinson Builders. Designed by award-winning architecture firm DKO with interiors by Mim Design, the 38-level development is due for completion in Q2 2026.

Devine said the project’s sculptural elliptical form, premium north-east orientation, and floor-to-ceiling glass were designed to capture uninterrupted 360-degree views of the ocean, hinterland, and city skyline.

Ultra-Luxury Living

Each penthouse offers more than 660sqm of internal and external space, featuring:

• Gourmet kitchens with Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances

• Oversized butler’s pantries

• Striking glass wine cellars and full-sized bars

• Formal dining for 14

• Expansive indoor-outdoor entertaining zones

• Master suites with private sitting areas, large walk-in wardrobes, resort-style ensuites, and floor-to-ceiling glass framing ocean views

Residents will have access to six-star resort-style amenities including two lagoon-style pools, a wellness centre with spa, steam room, cold plunge, sauna, yoga terrace, and Club Royale — a private residents’ facility with a Cuccina kitchen and executive lounge overlooking the beach.
