She left the Gold Coast as a teenager with only a high school diploma and the kind of hunger that comes from watching her mother work two jobs. And now, at the peak of her career, she’s back.Although the sale was never publicly announced, the property sold for between $27.5 million and $28 million, according to insiders.
The deal has remained largely unnoticed, with attention focused instead on the sale of a beachfront mansion in Mermaid Beach’s exclusive ‘Millionaires’ Row’, which has been officially recorded as Queensland’s largest residential property deal in 2025.

I loved the surf-filled beach area along the eastern edge of the country. “It’s like Miami. There are so many channels and vulgar people,” she said. Vogue Australia In 2019. She recalled doing her homework in a tree and looking at the stars from the property’s water tank.
“Do you remember when we lived in the Currumbin Valley, I always did my homework in a tree?” Her mother asked.“I’ve said it to my friends who have now grown up in New York City or London, and they have no idea what I mean. I said, ‘Well, there were eucalyptus laurel trees out back by the pasture, and my mother could scream out the window when dinner was ready.'” She added: “You tell stories like that, and you realize how lucky you are to have grown up on the Gold Coast.”Buying Margot Robbie is about more than just real estate investing. She left Australia as a teenager to pursue acting and juggled multiple shifts at a bar and café to fund her dream. Today, she has built her entire career on her own terms and has emerged as one of Hollywood’s most bankable stars. She has her own production company. She’s married with a child, and has achieved the kind of success the girl from the Gold Coast never even dared to dream of.The Gold Coast hinterland has become a popular destination for first-class acquisitions, where wealth flocks towards privacy and sunshine.
