Sherpa dives back into land market spurred on by incredible back-to-back sellouts

After whirlwind sales storms engulfed Sherpa Property Group’s two luxury Palm Beach developments, the Gold Coast-based developer has channelled its momentum into a rare opportunity in the Central Gold Coast land market.

Sherpa has purchased a rare 4000 square metre site at 787 Ashmore Rd in which it intends to create six exclusive elevated home lots in a coveted area of the central Gold Coast, where land is in short supply.

The project will feature six house and land packages designed by recognised Gold Coast builder Valcon Homes. 

The company, led by Christie Leet, is riding a wave of success on both the luxury development and land estate fronts. 

Sherpa’s stunning $35 million beachfront development Perspective 488 sold out in just three months, with the surplus of buyer interest resulting in the fast-tracking of neighbouring sister project Perspective Two Sea which has already sold-out, accruing over $36 million in sales in just a matter of weeks.  

Meanwhile the company’s Freedom-branded land estates further south - Freedom Rainbow Bay and Freedom Cabarita – have achieved consecutive sell-outs as buyers tapped into the strategic locations which have become a trademark of Mr Leet’s entry into the Gold Coast over the last three years.

Sherpa’s newest estate is set to encompass the same luxury standard showcased in its Freedom projects, with freehold land blocks, tailored house and land packages, and cutting-edge designs presented in an idyllic Ashmore location. 

Mr Leet said that appeal of the Ashmore Rd land came from its exclusivity and desirability and hit a gap in the market that buyers have been hungry for.

“With land, particularly quality land, in short supply on the central Gold Coast, this Ashmore Road lot was a rare find that we immediately saw an immense level of potential in,” said Mr Leet. 

“The location offers stunning views of the city skyline that offers tranquil and country living in a city address in a well-lit and serene suburb.

“It provides convenient access to the Smith Street and Pacific Motorways and is just a short drive to locals shopping centres, outlets store, gyms, cafes, Nerang train station and the Gold Coast Health and Knowledge Precinct.” 

After an incredibly successful few months, Mr Leet said they were hungry to continue the momentum into future opportunities arising across the Gold Coast. 

“It is truly an incredible time to be part of the Gold Coast market and after witnessing the enthusiasm with which buyers have responded to our projects, we are eager to pursue even more opportunities along the coast to continue delivering stand-out projects driven by architecture, design and quality,” said Mr Leet.  

Possessing over 30 years’ experience in the property industry, Sherpa has developed an impressive portfolio of $150 million worth of projects spanning from the Whitsundays down to Cabarita, establishing themselves as one of the Gold Coasts leading developers.
