Ray Hadley offloads dream holiday home
Top broadcaster Ray Hadley has offloaded his dream holiday home for a very impressive profit.
Top-rating 2GB broadcaster Ray Hadley has sold his Gold Coast bolthole for $2.05m.
The three-bedroom, two-bathroom Spinnaker apartment, with car space, was sold through Ryan Ward, of Kollosche. The marketing attracted five offers.
Spanning 174sq m of open-plan living, the 20th floor Main Beach Pde unit has 180-degree views of the city, hinterland, ocean, Broadwater and Main River from its interior and balcony space.

The then-renovated apartment was bought for $1.225m in 2017.
It had previously sold in 1987 for $265,000 in the 1983 apartment tower constructed by the late Ron McMaster. The prolific Gold Coast builder – responsible for more than 40 high-rise buildings on the Gold Coast – was the president of the Queensland Master Builders Association at the time.
McMaster had commissioned architect Ron Burling, of Burling Brown, to design Spinnaker.
Its amenities include a swimming pool, spa, sauna, steam room, gym and tennis court.
PropTrack put the three-bedroom median Main Beach apartment at a record $1,850,000 – up 10 per cent over the past 12 months after 55 sales.
Hadley and wife Sophie have plans for a Main Beach upgrade.
