Kate and Anthony Golle top North Coast property buys in summer

A prominent anti-vax couple have paid big bucks for a new pad in Casuarina while a multimillion-dollar pad has been snapped up by a Hemsworth at Emerald Beach. See the list.

The buyer of a multimillion-dollar North Coast hideaway is a Hemsworth, but not the one you’re thinking of.

It certainly looks like a house fit for a movie star with 100-year old reclaimed bridge timbers greeting guests at the front door and chocolate porcelain flooring.

This Emerald Beach home sold for $2,320,000

The apartment in Emerald Beach sold for $2,320,000 just before Christmas last year, however, neither Hollywood stars Chris nor Liam were the buyers.

Instead, the son of a trucking and haulage company owner Ben Hemsworth is moving his family up from Sydney.

It wasn’t a movie-star Hemsworth that bought this property

The price tag is hefty for the area and is one of the biggest buys this season.
