12-14 Westview Road, Currumbin, Qld 4223

Westview Road is exactly what it says it is. A quiet, elevated street in Currumbin with views that stretch out over rooftops all the way to Palm Beach, Elanora, and Broadbeach on the horizon. Three minutes to the beach by car. Five minutes to Currumbin Creek on foot. And two minutes down the road to Currumbin Primary.

12-14 Westview Road is not your standard listing. Built in 1975 and sitting across two separate titles on an elevated block, this is the kind of property that means something different depending on who is reading this. So rather than write one description that half-fits everyone, here are three.

FOR THE BUYER WHO JUST WANTS TO MOVE IN

Not everyone wants a project. Some buyers will walk in here and feel immediately at home, because this house has something new builds simply cannot manufacture: character. Real, genuine, of-its-era character. The kind that architects charge a premium to recreate.

The split level entry sets the tone immediately. To the left of the front door sits a generous dedicated laundry room, and tucked beside the staircase on the same side, a wine cellar. And this before you've even chosen which direction to take the home.

Step down into the large open living space or rumpus room, where a wall of windows and a sliding door to the outside flood the space with light. Off to the left, an elevated nook sits tucked away with its own small kitchen, separate toilet and bathroom. It's a space within a space, and the flexibility it offers speaks for itself.

Or go up into the main open plan living, dining and kitchen area, where an open fireplace anchors the room: a genuine rarity on the Gold Coast, and exactly the kind of detail that makes a house feel like a home. From here, the full-length balcony opens up, and Westview earns its name. The sunsets from this balcony, looking out over Currumbin and beyond to Broadbeach, are the kind that make you stop what you're doing.

Continue up a few more stairs and you reach a gallery hallway that looks down over the living area below, made possible by the vaulted ceilings. Along this hallway sit all four bedrooms and a study.

The double garage means the steep driveway is never a problem in practice. The side of the property has a flat garden area where kids and dogs can do their thing. The front yard, terraced properly, could become a real statement.

This is not the regular home. It was never trying to be.

FOR THE RENOVATOR

This is a 1970s home with good bones, great views, vaulted ceilings, a wine cellar, an open fireplace, and more potential than it knows what to do with. Take it as one large home and go to town. The lower nook with its own kitchenette, bathroom and toilet is already most of the way to a self-contained space. Add to that, strip it back, and reimagine a two-storey split-level into a contemporary masterpiece. The raw materials are compelling: a balcony that runs the full length of the home with views that turn golden at sunset, vaulted ceilings that give the interior genuine height and drama, a gallery-style hallway that looks down over the living space below, and a double garage that anchors it all. For someone with vision and a good builder, this is a rare find in one of the Gold Coast's most tightly held suburbs.

FOR THE DEVELOPER

Two titles. A generous elevated block. And already on this very street, medium density and duplex-style living has been done. The precedent is there. The elevation here is an asset in the right hands: two large homes designed to make the most of the aspect and the land, with views that would underpin serious end value. Currumbin is not a suburb that sits still, and land like this does not present twice.

THE LOCATION

Currumbin is one of those suburbs that people from further up the coast quietly wish they had bought into sooner. The creek, the beach, the wildlife sanctuary, The Pines Elanora Shopping Centre, and some of the best coffee on the southern Gold Coast, with Balter Brewery just five minutes away: it's all right here. And for a street as quiet as Westview, the access to everything is genuinely surprising.
