Amir Prestige Group’s Marc Keswell handled both marketing campaigns and while he would not comment on the sale price, said the latest sale proved the prestige market was still strong.

“The Isle of Capri is one of the premier suburbs in the central Gold Coast and has got some record sales,” he said.

“It’s a very sought-after suburb from interstate buyers as well as locals.
