A new mega mansion proposed for Admiralty Drive, Surfers Paradise by Margaret Pemberton.

The three-storey house planned for the site would replace the existing 1990s-era house with a dwelling which a planning report describes as a “high quality product”.

“It exhibits cutting edge design elements that includes superior architectural design outcomes intended to create striking visual interest,” the report said.

“The overall building consists of a mixture of textures and materials that make the built form interesting, dynamic and modern.”

The “subtropical” house will feature:

* A three-car garage;

* An 18-foot pool overlooking the Nerang River with views of Southport and TSS;

* Five bedrooms, including a master suite on the third floor which would include its own walk-in wardrobe and private office;

* A lift which runs between all three levels;

It is the fourth mega mansion proposed for the Gold Coast in recent months.

In August, plans for a mansion were unveiled for Carrara, where an existing mansion is being demolished to make way for a new 11m high building put forward by Anthony and Katarina Puljich.

Luxury features include a cinema, sauna, tennis court and pool overlooking the river.

Also in August, Billy Thomas lodged plans to build a luxury house in the exclusive Sovereign Island’s Brittanic Crescent

That three-storey mansion will include a partially underground basement level containing a five-car garage and a car turntable similar to that of the Batcave in the Batman comic books.

In September, Rob and Tui McKinnon filed plans for a waterfront mansion at Mermaid Waters’ Winch Court.
