GRAYA's Kloud penthouse in Palm Beach sells for record $9.1 million
This sale has set a new suburb record for unit prices in Palm Beach, the previous one being $8.6 million for 7/15 Jefferson Lane.
Director Andrew Gray said the team were "very excited" to announce the premium sale.
"It once again shows the depth of market in the luxury space and the high-level of interest interstate buyers still have for quality projects on the Gold Coast," he said.
Mr Gray went on to emphasise that the level of interest in the penthouse had been "unprecedented" with three offers above asking price made shortly after launch.
The sale was managed by Whitefox Gold Coast's Nic Whitehead, with the successful purchaser an interstate buyer looking to holiday in the Beachside project.
Named Kloud, the 272-square-metre penthouse occupies two entire floors of the building with a private rooftop.
"This penthouse is one-of-a-kind with the full rooftop allocated to the penthouse," said Mr Gray. "The rooftop includes a pool/spa with uninterrupted ocean views, fully operational bar for entertaining guests and a steam room for rest and recovery."
The award-winning developer purchased the original site for around $9 million and have since begun constructing the 23-unit building.
A building fit for the stars, tennis champion Ash Barty has reportedly purchased a unit within the project.
The building is being designed in-house and currently only three units remain available to purchase.
"With construction due for completion in November, and residents moving in prior to Christmas, the remaining residences won't last much longer," said Mr Gray. "Any interested parties should get in contact before they miss out."
This news comes after the developer secured a rare Brisbane site on James Street, a vibrant retail and hospitality destination in the heart of Brisbane's Fortitude Valley.
Graya beat out both local and overseas buyers in a competitive sale to purchase the 943-square-metre site and current home of Bed Bath & Table.
"Sites like this are truly once in a lifetime," said co-director Rob Gray. "It's a rare opportunity to contribute to one of Australia's most iconic lifestyle destinations."
Plans for the site have yet to be lodged, however a statement from the team said the project will be a landmark mixed-use precinct featuring a "design-led approach with a strong focus on curating an offering that enhances the precinct's lifestyle appeal and long-term commercial value."
In another recent win, the developer was recently crowned Australian Property Developer of the year at the Urban Developer awards in Sydney.

Massive penthouse sale as beachfront tower unveiled
An interstate buyer has splashed $9.1m on a luxury penthouse set to be unveiled within days as the scaffolding comes down on Palm Beach's newest tower. The bumper off-the-plan sale is the biggest deal inked for Graya's beachfront Kloud project, the company's first multiresidential offering on the Gold Coast. Tennis ace Ash Barty is among other buyers in the 23-unit development, with the Wimbledon champion dropping close to $4m on a half-floor apartment. Winner refused to live in 'too perfect' $4m prize home Graya director Rob Gray said just three units were still available within the 41.25m-high tower. 'These have just come to market as the scaffolding starts to come down to reveal the exterior design. 'Construction hit top-out just before the penthouse was launched to the market, leaving just the interior work to be completed,' Mr Gray said. The penthouse was marketed by White Fox agent Nic Whitehead and sold within 15 days, with three offers received. 'Most of our buyers have been Queensland locals, but the penthouse sold to an interstate buyer looking to holiday in beautiful Palm Beach,' Mr Gray said. The 507 sqm penthouse spans two full floors, comprising a luxury living level and rooftop entertaining terrace with spectacular ocean views and resort-style amenities 'We wanted to capture the exclusivity of living sky high without sacrificing the experience of being barefoot on the sand,' said fellow Graya director, Andrew Gray. 'The penthouse achieves this through seamless transition from inside to outside spaces and the feeling of freedom and sophisticated comfort.' The apartment has four bedrooms, a media room, and statement kitchen with an island dining bar with stunning fluted stone accents. The private rooftop hosts a decadent indoor steam room, and a barbecue kitchen overlooking the alfresco terrace with dining area, lounging space, fire pit, spa and a pool with wading ledge. Rob Gray said the residence set a new benchmark for high-end living on the beachfront, where boutique developers were scrambling to meet demand from cashed-up local and interstate apartment buyers. Kloud was expected to be completed in November.

Massive price for 1960s time capsule home
A 1960s house, built by a carpenter for his family and preserved as if time stood still, has sold for $2.405m, setting a new benchmark for an original property in one of the Gold Coast's most sought-after beachside pockets. With a Hills Hoist in the backyard and lace tablecloths in the kitchen, the cottage amazed buyers with its immaculately preserved tableau of the past as it came to market for the first time ever. The three-bedroom, two-bathroom house on a 670 sqm lot at 9 Tawarri Cres, Burleigh Heads, sold 11 days after listing, to a local buyer planning to build a family home. Marketing agent Paddy Quinn, of PRD Burleigh Heads, said the price was the highest achieved for an original home in the popular community of Koala Park, located close to picturesque Tallebudgera Creek. 'This is a prime lifestyle location where high-end luxury homes have sold for phenomenal amounts, and the result is testament to how competitive it has become to get into Koala Park,' Mr Quinn said. The last comparable sale was a four-bedroom house on the same street, sold for $1.94m in December and on the market for the first time in 26 years. Burleigh 'marble mansion' up for rent Qld renters missing out on energy bill relief With its cream and green exterior, retro coloured glass, shagpile carpets and shelves displaying religious figures, Mr Quinn said the house at 9 Tawarri sent many buyers on a trip down memory lane. 'The home had never been renovated and was kept pretty much as though time had stood still since the 1960s,' he said. 'The idea of the campaign was firstly, to pay homage to the vendors' late parents for their quality construction of a home that showcases enduring craftsmanship and timeless character – the saying, 'they don't build them like they used to', comes to mind.' It was sold as a deceased estate, and had been home to the seller's mother, a beloved local character known as 'Terry', since it was built until her death aged 91. 'It was a one-of-a-kind house built with a lot of love for a very loving family.' PropTrack data shows house prices in Burleigh Heads were up 16.2 per cent over the past 12 months to a median of $1.569m.
