Designed to Impress
July 9 2025

Raising the bar for luxury living on the Gold Coast is ‘Rivers Bend’ – a magnificent riverfront estate set within a quiet and exclusive pocket of Carrara.
Spread across an enormous 6,297 square metres* with 30m* of prime Main River frontage, Rivers Bend is not just another inner-city estate, but rather a destination address delivering quality and amenity at a level never seen on the Gold Coast market.
Hamptons-inspired, the estate’s main residence is without doubt a grand and solid home with its muted blue and white facade, soft arched windows, stacked stone pillars and elegant white balustrades a perfect fit for its riverside setting.
QUALITY AND SCALE
Inside, this residence is designed to impress. Its scale is vast – more than 1,700 square metres under roof – and mixes open-plan spaces that flow effortlessly to alfresco and communal areas facing the water, while more private rooms such as an executive study and sitting room offer refuge towards the front of the house.
The materials and craftsmanship used throughout leave a lasting impression and have been considered down to the finest of details.
Imported Italian marbles, hand-carved timber cabinetry, gold-plated stainless steel, statement chandeliers and bespoke fixtures feature across every space, from the grand marble staircase to a 700-bottle, temperature-controlled wine cellar.
The kitchen is anchored by a four-metre Sovrano marble island and supported by a fully appointed butler’s kitchen ready to cater for the largest gatherings.
The bedrooms are generous and thoughtfully placed on the upper level. Here, the master suite is a retreat in every sense, with a private balcony, commercial-grade dressing room and an ensuite showcasing a 1.2-tonne freestanding Nero Marquina marble bath as its centrepiece.
Four further bedroom suites, each with their own ensuites and balconies, provide ample space for family or guests.
NEXT-LEVEL ENTERTAINING
The estate’s outdoor spaces and amenities are of a depth and quality that would rival those of a boutique five-star resort. A stunning 18-metre saltwater pool surrounded by sun terraces, a swim-up bar, and spa, set the scene for lazy afternoons in the sun.
The sunken firepit lounge invites conversation as day turns to night, while a rooftop pavilion offers an unbeatable vantage point for sunset drinks while taking in the wide Main River and city skyline views.
Entertaining is effortless with a commercial-grade bar and full outdoor kitchen creating the ultimate setting for hosting on any scale. A private pontoon with jet ski docks provides direct access to the river for those who live for the water, while back on land, a championship-size tennis court completes the amenity offering.
STATE-OF-THE-ART TECHNOLOGY
Rivers Bend is practical as it is beautiful. The entire estate is operated through a state-of-the-art home automation and security system, providing owners with unparalleled convenience and peace of mind.
A Control 4 automation system will alert you to an open window or unlocked door anywhere on the estate, while an integrated weatherproof sound system, 26 security cameras, and waterfront laser sensors ensure peace of mind to enjoy the elevated living.
Garaging for 12 vehicles, including a glass-fronted showroom, allows car lovers to showcase their prized collections, with automatic number plate recognition bollards along the driveway bringing an extra level of security.
COME AND STAY
Friends and family are properly catered for in a two-bedroom guesthouse located at the front of the estate to optimise privacy and independence.
The outdoor amenities mirror those of the main residence, with the alfresco area featuring a saltwater pool with sunken firepit and spa, seating area and wet bar.
