Mega mansion with pontoon, views

- Aleisha Dawson

Practice your golf swing before taking in a movie with a glass of wine.

Or perhaps a boat ride on the Broadwater is more your style.

A golf simulator, 500-bottle wine cellar, theatre and 15m pontoon are among the jaw-dropping features in this Gold Coast mega mansion.

Fresh to the market via Edin Kara of Ray White Sovereign Islands, the five-bedroom showstoppe­r at 34 Hampton Court pretty much has it all. Lance and Jacqueline Dummett bought the property in 2021 after being drawn to its views, location and style.

“We wanted something with a view and this one is unbelievab­le,” Mr Dummett said.

“You can see from Sovereign Islands down the waterway across to the Gold Coast Hinterland.

“Then at the front of the property, you look over a park in the middle of the street, so out the front all you see is green and out the back it’s just this vast expanse of water.”

A builder himself, Mr Dummett was also attracted to the property’s build quality and architectu­re, including its signature Paul Clout design touches, such as soaring ceilings, interior and exterior water features, and a seamless transition between the indoors and outside.

The house offers all-year entertaini­ng with a focus on enjoying seamless indoor-outdoor living.

“With its indoor-outdoor ponds, glass walkways, large voids and the heated swimming pool and spa, it’s a house that feels just like a resort,” Mr Dummett said.

“At night-time it looks fantastic.”

During their three years living there, the Dummetts have also completed a series of renovation­s, including adding a golf simulator in the basement and creating a 500-bottle wine cellar.

After three years in his Sovereign Islands home, Mr Dummett said he and his wife were moving to Main Beach to be closer to family.
