THE ultimate in luxury penthouse living beckons in the magnificent Marquis on Main apartments.
Vendor Peta McDougall is fielding regular phone calls from her “weeping children” about her decision to sell the family-sized home in the sky, but she is steadfast it is time to move on.
“We purchased off the plan in 2004 when we still had teenagers at university and we needed the space,” Ms McDougall said.
“We no longer need the space, but we are getting phone calls from weeping children in England who can’t imagine not having their holidays here.”
Occupying the entire top four levels of the renowned Marquis on Main apartment building, Ms McDougall said the expansive layout had been perfect for family life.
Life is a permanent holiday in this 862sq m sky home, with its own rooftop alfresco area, private pool, spa, and 360-degree views sweeping across the hinterland, Main Beach, Macintosh Island and the Broadwater.
Occupying levels 25 to 28 in a tightly held complex, the first floor encompasses a wet bar, entertainer’s dining room and modern kitchen with a wraparound balcony.
Level 26 is home to three of the four bedrooms, each with its own ensuite, private terrace and panoramic vistas.
