The elegant two-story abode garnered the nation’s highest attention on realestate.com.au before heading to auction.
Amidst seven eager bidders at the on-site auction overseen by Trevor Tippett of Holmes Auctions, a couple who relocated from New Zealand to the Gold Coast last year emerged victorious, securing the keys to the property.
Ellidy Pullin, who penned the memoir “Heartstrong” in 2022, shared that she opted to downsize alongside her two-year-old daughter, Minnie, who she fondly describes as Chumpy’s “miracle baby.” Minnie was born 16 months after Chumpy’s passing, made possible through IVF with post-mortem sperm retrieval.
Chumpy, a revered three-time Winter Olympian and world snowboarding champion, tragically drowned at the age of 32 while spearfishing at Palm Beach in 2020.
Reflecting on the decision to part ways with their home, Ellidy stated on her podcast “Darling, Shine!” co-hosted with Chloe Fisher, “Our life was going on this trajectory where we had the house, the dog, we wanted the baby and essentially I’m continuing our life that we were going to live together without him.”
Property records indicate that the Elanora residence, situated on a 512 sqm lot, previously changed hands for $935,000 in May 2018.
The four-bedroom, two-bathroom dwelling was showcased by Coastal agent Emisha Canning, featuring promotional imagery spotlighting Ms. Pullin, Minnie, and their dog, Rummi.
Highlighted by its elevated position, the residence boasts a contemporary aesthetic with crisp white tones, clean lines, and polished concrete floors, exuding a welcoming ambiance ideal for family life.
Property amenities include an open-plan layout, a well-equipped kitchen with high-end appliances, 50mm stone benchtops, a butler’s pantry, and a media room.
