Seven Bedrooms, One Sale: How 19 Kingfisher Crescent Sold for $5,100,000

A seven-bedroom house in Burleigh Waters just changed hands for $5,100,000 — sitting 218.3% above the suburb's rolling 12-month median. There is no comparable recent sale in the suburb at this scale. Here is what happened, and what it tells the market.

The Property

Seven bedrooms is unusual anywhere on the southern Gold Coast. In Burleigh Waters — a suburb defined by family homes on sub-700 sqm blocks, strong school catchments, and a coastal proximity premium — it is genuinely rare. A home at this scale occupies a completely different bracket from the suburb's mainstream stock, and its sale price reflects that separation precisely.

Without listing copy or photo analysis on file, specific interior details aren't available to report here. What the data does confirm is that this is the only seven-bedroom sale tracked in Burleigh Waters over the past 12 months, which makes it both the floor and ceiling of its own micro-category — the median for seven-bedroom homes in the suburb is $5,100,000, because this is that market.

What draws buyers to Kingfisher Crescent and the wider Burleigh Waters pocket is consistent: proximity to the beach corridor without the full Burleigh Heads price tag, access to Burleigh State High's catchment, and streets that feel settled rather than transient. A home of this bedroom count — whether configured for extended families, dual occupancy, or a combination — commands serious attention from a narrow but determined buyer pool.

The Market It Sold Into

Burleigh Waters is moving fast right now. The quarterly median has tracked to $1,845,000 — up +28.6% on the prior quarter — while the rolling 12-month median sits at $1,602,500, a +11.8% year-on-year gain across 276 house sales. More telling: 53.8% of homes are selling within 30 days, and supply has compressed to just 1.6 months. That is a market where well-positioned stock doesn't sit.

The caveat worth applying here is that those headline numbers describe the mainstream market — sub-$2,000,000 family homes competing on land size and school proximity. The $5,100,000 bracket operates differently. Buyers at this price point move deliberately, not urgently, and the sale of 19 Kingfisher Crescent shouldn't be read as evidence that the broader Burleigh Waters market is transacting at this level. It is, however, evidence that the suburb can support a result of this magnitude — which matters for anyone holding a large or substantially improved asset nearby.

The Campaign

Days on market for this sale were not recorded in the data available, so a direct comparison to Burleigh Waters's current 28-day average cannot be made here. What can be said is that a $5,100,000 campaign in a suburb where the median sits at $1,602,500 is by definition a long-tail exercise. The buyer pool for a seven-bedroom home at this price is thin — that is not a criticism of the property, it is the arithmetic of the upper end. Campaigns in this bracket typically require more time and more targeted outreach than the suburb average reflects.

The absence of a listed asking price means the gap between guide and result cannot be reported. What the sale confirms is that a transaction occurred at $5,100,000 in March 2026 — a figure that becomes the reference point for any comparable campaign that follows.

The Result

19 Kingfisher Crescent, Burleigh Waters sold on 23 March 2026 for $5,100,000. Days on market: not recorded. The sale price sits +218.3% above the rolling 12-month suburb median of $1,602,500.

What This Means for Buyers and Sellers

For buyers active at the upper end of Burleigh Waters, this sale sets a concrete benchmark where none previously existed. A seven-bedroom home in this suburb — priced correctly and presented to the right audience — can clear $5,100,000. That matters if you are assessing whether to pursue Burleigh Waters over comparable properties in adjacent coastal suburbs. The entry cost is now documented. What it buys in terms of scale and livability in this location is worth understanding before looking elsewhere.

For homeowners in the surrounding streets, the more relevant story is in the underlying market conditions rather than this sale specifically. With supply sitting at 1.6 months and more than half of homes selling within 30 days, the mainstream Burleigh Waters market is rewarding well-prepared vendors. Properties positioned clearly — priced with reference to current data, not 2024 conditions — are finding buyers quickly. The asking-versus-valuation gap currently sitting at +21.3% tells you that the market is running ahead of automated platform valuations. If your estimate of your home's worth is based on a tool rather than recent comparable sales, it is likely conservative.
