A designer sky-home 30 floors above Broadbeach, furnished in Ralph Lauren: a signature that defines what it’s like to live this high life’.

There’s that old saying: ‘If you want something done right, then do it yourself’.

That’s exactly what the Owners of the Ultra Penthouse did – designing it from the ground up for a real I did it my way’ lifestyle.

So let’s take it, from the top.

A private wood panelled elevator leads to the second floor and the tower-top terrace; half this skyscraper’s ‘sky-space’ dedicated to outdoor entertainment.

An elevated, end to end heated lap-pool with a clear glass view out over the city.

All that’s missing is your name on the side of the building. Because up here, your head is certainly in the clouds.

In the entrance foyer; under high ceilings, a lounge and bar; from a single slab of marble and a home office, with views west to the Hinterlands.

Floor to ceiling shuttered balconies finished with anti-slip, anti-rust and anti-stain surfaces run the full length of the residence, on the eastern side.

North across Broadbeach to Surfers.

South to Burleigh and onto Coolangatta.

East the Pacific.

And West. The outer suburbs of the Gold Coast stretching to the Hinterlands… the green behind the gold.

There is a view to every room. None better than the Master Suite, with marble spa – it is a view that can be simply shuttered at the touch of a button.

C Bus. Of course. In a residence wired for digital high-fidelity, from top – to bottom with a system that can take over 100,000 songs.

The fine sheen from the feature walls? Metallic Rozene.

A fully-imported German kitchen sits on a parquetry floor with an island bench – sheeted in glass – inset with hot plates – under a full-length, illuminated hood.

The ‘stainless’ includes both fan-forced and steam ovens.

On the western side of the residence: the two guest rooms – outside nothing but air.

And if the air you breathe up here feels a little finer; a little fresher; a little cooler… we’ll let you in on a little secret. It gets 30% more ‘o2′ than any other apartment in Ultra.

Why. Because the owner wanted it air-conditioned that way.

As we said at the start, if you want it done right. Do it yourself.

And do it with a bit of ‘Ultra’.

Ultra is one of the newer luxury high-rise at the south end of Broadbeach, in a “Location, Location” that really is a very short walk to everything; the shops and malls of Pacific Fair and Oasis. Jupiters. The Gold Coast Convention Centre.

And all the cafes and restaurants that line Broadbeach’s wide boulevards.

The features of this Ultra modern high-rise include:
- Heated lap pool
- Spa, and Children’s wading pool
- Sauna and steam
- Fitness room
- A floodlit tennis court
- Cinema
- BBQ entertainment areas
- Tour desk
- Reflection ponds surround a Zen meditation garden

Once on the sleepy side of Surfers’, Broadbeach has quietly and confidently turned itself into a classy, cosmopolitan town with city aspirations.

Once sand mines; now, a property gold mine.

Its population doesn’t come and go overnight. It is a place that can happily do without all the glitz and glamour of that tourist Paradise that’s just down the road.

Still close enough to get a dose of the dazzle, but far enough away you can ‘just’ hear the buzz when INDY comes around once a year.

At night, its skyline is outlined in neon blue – a colour Broadbeach has embraced; like the ocean that pulls against the wide sands it gets it name from.
