One of the Gold Coast\u2019s premier beachfront mansions has just sold for a jaw-dropping $25 million, equalling Queensland\u2019s most expensive property on record.<\/p>\n

The luxurious abode \u2013 which takes up a whopping 40-metre slice of ocean frontage at 2 Heron Avenue in Mermaid Beach \u2013 is home to former AFL player and now property developer Tony Smith and his wife Simone, who purchased the property in 2014 for $12 million when it was a block of shabby, mission-brown units.<\/p>\n

Mr Smith knocked down the proverbial parking lot to put up a veritable paradise, creating a four-bedroom, four-bathroom masterpiece with a Balinese-meets-Hamptons-style that selling agent Harry Kakavas of Prestige Property Sales said was unparalleled.<\/p>\n

The off-market sale was inked amid a month of multimillion-dollar sales and comes just days after the $11.75 million transaction of a\u00a0resort-style mansion at 1-3 La Scala Court on the glitter strip\u2019s Isle of Capri<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 injecting a mega dose of optimism into the\u00a0 market.<\/p>\n
