When you win two homes in a single draw, you get to keep one for fun and the other as an investment. That means having the best of all worlds with a luxurious designer villa in Mermaid Waters and a second income to make that win all the sweeter.
The two homes in draw 367 are matching villas sitting next to each other on the waterfront in Mermaid Waters on the fabulous Gold Coast. If you live in one and rent out the other, you’ll be getting a regular income of around $78,000 to help fuel your new millionaire lifestyle. Rent them both and double your take with a massive $156,000 a year.
Spectacular Waterfront Homes
The two properties to be given away in draw 367 are mirror images of each other, sitting on some of the best real estate on the coast. Of the four bedrooms, two have ensuites and the master faces the waterfront. You’ll be able to give your guests their own private space on the ground level in a home that’s perfect for entertaining friends and family.
Each villa spans three levels with the top floor given over to a retreat and rooftop terrace. You’ll have great views of the canals, lakes and coast as you look onto the distant skyline of Surfers Paradise. Inside, there’s everything you need to start the party with a full wet bar, wine fridges, and a top of the line entertainment system.
Three of the bedrooms are on the second level, a beautifully designed space with timbered floors, a full bath and a home study. The ground level is cleverly configured to hide a scullery, laundry and storage space behind the living area, which then opens onto the dining room and kitchen. Fully retractable glazing opens the alfresco onto the dining area. The kitchen also has stool seating at the central island, so you’ve got no shortage of places to sit and enjoy a BBQ. Tucked into the back of the property you’ll find a swimming pool, timbered deck, and ramp leading to your pontoon on the canal.
