The Sunshine Coast has long been a hot spot for celebrities looking for a beachfront or hinterland getaway, with many high-profile buyers splashing millions on impressive properties.

Karl and Jasmine Stefanovic and Kevin Rudd and Therese Rein are just four big names who have recently bought up big on the Coast, joining a slew of other celebrities who live or holiday in the region.

Tom Offermann of Tom Offermann Real Estate said the region had a long history of attracting

film and television celebrities and sporting stars.

'STATE OF FLUX': HOW VIRUS HAS HIT COAST PROPERTY MARKET

WAVES OF SOUTHERN BUYERS TO FLOOD COAST MARKET

Mr Offermann said the agency was currently working with five celebrities, including a big name from the United States entertainment industry, and several very high-profile business people.

"The most affluent buyers usually have a wish list that includes being on the front row which can be either the beachfront along Hastings St, a waterfront home on Noosa Sound or Noosa Waters, or absolute beachfront living along the eastern beaches from Sunshine Beach to Peregian Beach," Mr Offermann said.

"The Noosa hinterland has also been popular."

Here are just some celebrities who have spent big on Sunshine Coast properties.

KARL AND JASMINE STEFANOVIC

Today Show host Karl Stefanovic made a return to the Queensland property market earlier this year with wife Jasmine, snapping up a luxurious Sunshine Beach home for a cool $3.6 million.

The four-bedroom home with ocean views from every room is the first property the couple has bought together.

Set on a hill about 200m from Sunshine Beach, the 2009-built abode was on the market for 420 days before it was sold to Karl and Jasmine by Century 21 Conolly Hay Group.

 

 

 

KEVIN RUDD AND THERESE REIN

The former prime minister and wife Therese Rein were recently revealed as the buyers of the Sunshine Beach mansion formerly owned by Pat Rafter.

The seven-bedroom home sold for $17 million in May, but the buyers' identity had been unknown until last week.

Mr Rudd is a former Nambour State High School student and grew up on a Eumundi dairy farm.

 

GABRIEL MACHT

The Suits star and his wife, Aussie actor Jacinda Barrett, own a Noosa beach house which they bought more than 10 years ago for a touch over $750,000.

The pair invited Prince Harry and Meghan Markle to honeymoon at the beach house.

The four-bedroom house is within walking distance to the beach in a quiet, private street.

 

LISA CURRY

The former Olympic swimmer and TV personality has a home in Crohamhurst with Elvis impersonator husband Mark Tabone, which they bought for $1.125 million in July, 2017.

The property is situated down a private meandering driveway on a quiet road 15 minutes from Maleny.

 

 

Set on 64 acres, the property is perfect for entertaining with a saltwater pool and an entertaining gazebo.

Ms Curry also owns a unit in Alexandra Headland and a home in Minyama she bought with former husband Grant Kenny.

 

MARK WEBBER

Former F1 racing driver Mark Webber bought a house in Noosa Heads in 2011.

Webber paid $4.9 million for the home, which sits on 1362sq m of land, from former tennis star Thomas Muster.

The property is set on a 1362sq m block, with a huge private pool and views over Tea Tree Bay, extending to Double Island Point.

The four-bedroom, three-bathroom house virtually wraps around hilltop trees.

 

WAYNE SWAN

Another ex-Nambour State High School product, the former federal treasurer, who has a frosty relationship with former PM Kevin Rudd, is a regular visitor to the Coast.

He surfs in the region regularly and holidays between Maroochydore and Alexandra Headland.

 

RICHARD BRANSON

 

Virgin Group founder and world-famous businessman, Richard Branson bought Makepeace Island in the Noosa River for $2.86 million in the early-2000s.

His pad on the island can accommodate up to 22 guests.

The property features a main long house with a giant bar, a four-bedroom guesthouse, several two-bedroom villas, a boat house and a lagoon pool with a lap lane, dive spots and a 15-person spa.

The champion golfer snapped up a Sunshine Beach home in April last year for $8.4 million.

A former world number one, Scott was the first Australian to win the Masters at Augusta in 2013.

 

THE VERONICAS

Pop duo The Veronicas traded in the bright lights of Los Angeles for rural Queensland.

After years living in America, twin singing sensations Lisa and Jessica Origliasso moved back home to be with their mother Colleen, who is reportedly suffering from dementia.

The chart-topping sisters paid $695,000 for the rural retreat in August last year in Landsborough in the Sunshine Coast hinterland, north of Brisbane.

The former Powderfinger drummer bought a house in Marcus Beach for $1.37 million in 2014.

Country music rock star Keith Urban last year purchased a million-dollar Maroochydore unit for his mother Marienne.

The million-dollar apartment is metres from the beach, a walk to Sunshine Plaza, and features three bedrooms, two bathrooms and ocean views.

It was snapped up by Keith for $1.03 million and features floor-to-ceiling windows and an open-plan design.

Seven Sunshine Coast nurses are among a group of 27 from Queensland who have left for Victoria on a deployment to assist with the COVID-19 response.

A new beach has mysteriously appeared along the shoreline of a Queensland tourist town. But it’s still a well-kept secret.

A group of residents who have fought for years to reject a proposed sand mine on the Coast is ‘ecstatic’ as the legal battle has come to an end.

Emotions were high as dozens of people gathered at Alexandra Headland to express their concerns over the controversial proposed M2M cycleway.
