- WORDS HANNAH SBEGHEN

IT looks like a wedding venue but this stunning Tallai property has been home to Mark and Elissa Thomas for the past 10 years.

The pair said they were used to having strangers knock on their door and ask to renew vows in the their backyard. And it’s not hard to see why.

The sprawling property captures breathtaki­ng views of mountains, the Hinze dam and the glitz and glamour of the Gold Coast skyline.

“My wife and I are incredibly blessed to have spent a long time living here,” Mr Thomas said.

“We had a young couple approach us about using the property for a wedding venue.

“I have spent a lot of time and effort getting the gardens to look the way they do so we had to say no unfortunat­ely, but it is definitely an option for the future owners. It would make a magnificen­t wedding venue.”

Mr Thomas said he and his wife spent more than $150,000 on upgrades when they first moved in.

“We saw the vista and we saw the that the house had immense potential so it wasn’t hard to say yes to buying the house,” he said. “It has been a peaceful retreat.”

The home has a classic style with marble, high ceilings and large picture windows.

“We will absolutely miss the view but we have been living on acreage properties for the past 20 years, 10 of them have been spent here.”

The family plans to move closer to the Coast and travel. 4 3 2 Agent: Katrina Walsh, Harcourts Coastal Gold Coast Features: Jacuzzi, timber and marble floors, fire place, all-weather outdoor terrace, gated entry Area: 5.94ha Auction: June 21, 11am at 16 Queensland Ave, Harcourts Coastal Broadbeach in-rooms.
