890 Medinah Avenue Sold $50,000 Above Guide — Landing Almost Exactly on Robina's 3-Bedroom Median

A three-bedroom home backing The Glades Golf Course sold for $1,300,000 on 23 July 2026 — $50,000 above its guide midpoint. The result reads as below Robina's overall median, but that comparison hides the real story: for a three-bedroom house, this was priced to the dollar.

The Property

890 Medinah Avenue sits inside the Glades Estate, backing directly onto the green of The Glades Golf Course. That position does the heavy lifting here. The outlook is open and leafy rather than fenced onto a neighbour, and the home uses extensive glazing across both levels to pull that view and the northern light indoors.

Inside, the layout runs to three bedrooms, two bathrooms and two car spaces, with a second living area giving the floor plan more flexibility than a standard three-bedroom home — a work-from-home room, a kids' retreat, or a formal lounge, depending on the buyer. The rear yard is manicured and usable, and the outdoor entertaining area rated a solid 7 out of 10 in our assessment: not a resort-style setup, but a genuine space to use rather than a token courtyard. In a Robina market where three-bedroom homes often trade on compromise, the golf-course frontage is the feature that separates this one.

The Market It Sold Into

Robina has run hard over the past year, with house values up +10.9% year-on-year. But the more recent picture is flatter: the quarterly median moved -2.9%, and the suburb is sitting on 3.8 months of supply — enough stock that buyers have choice and don't have to chase every listing. This is a market in expansion, not a frenzy.

That matters for a home like this one. Robina's overall house median sits at $1,520,000, but that figure is carried by four- and five-bedroom homes on freestanding blocks near the Town Centre and the better school catchments. The three-bedroom segment is its own market, and it clears at a very different number — a median of $1,302,500. Buyers shopping in the low-$1.3-millions in Robina are competing over a smaller, well-defined pool of homes, and golf-course frontage is a genuine differentiator within it.

The Campaign

The home was listed on 15 June 2026 and sold on 23 July 2026 — a campaign of 38 days. Against Robina's 12-month average of 29 days, that's a slower, more measured run than the suburb norm, roughly nine days longer than typical. With 3.8 months of supply on the market, patient buyers had room to weigh their options before committing.

The payoff was in the price. Carrying a guide of $1,250,000, the home settled at $1,300,000 — $50,000, or +4.0%, above the guide midpoint. A slightly longer campaign that ends above guide is a fair trade: it suggests the pricing was pitched to invite interest rather than cap it, and the eventual buyer paid for the golf-course position rather than negotiating it away.

The Result

890 Medinah Avenue, Robina sold on 23 July 2026 for $1,300,000. Listed 15 June 2026 — a 38-day campaign, against a 29-day suburb average. Sold +4.0% above the guide midpoint of $1,250,000. 14.5% below Robina's overall house median of $1,520,000. Effectively on the money against the three-bedroom median of $1,302,500 — just 0.2% under.

What This Means for Buyers and Sellers

For buyers active in Robina around the $1.3 million mark, this sale is a useful benchmark. The headline "14.5% below the suburb median" is the wrong lens — the right comparison is the three-bedroom median of $1,302,500, and this home landed almost exactly on it while sitting above its guide. If you're shopping in this segment, expect to pay the three-bedroom rate, and expect a genuine feature like golf-course frontage to hold its value rather than come cheap. With 3.8 months of supply, you have time to compare — but the better-positioned homes still clear above guide.

For homeowners nearby thinking about selling, the lesson is about honest pricing. A guide of $1,250,000 didn't undersell this home; it drew a buyer who then paid $50,000 more. In a market that's still growing year-on-year but softened -2.9% last quarter, a guide pitched to invite competition tends to outperform one anchored to the suburb's top-end median. The campaign took a little longer than average, but it finished ahead of expectations — which is the outcome that counts.

Thinking of Selling in Robina?

Robina isn't one market — it's several, split by bedroom count, catchment and position. Knowing which median your home actually competes against is the difference between a guide that draws buyers and one that stalls. Talk to the Fields team about what your home could achieve in today's market.
