Ms Watson, a content creator and lifestyle entrepreneur, and her husband Alex, bought the Currumbin Valley property in 2021, showcasing every detail of the home’s design and construction to a growing audience of admirers.

“We were drawn to the property as it’s still close to the beach and town yet is next to beautiful rainforest and a creek on flat usable land,” Ms Watson said.

“We really wanted to create a minimal aesthetic in a single-level home that feels different to a lot of houses on the Gold Coast.”

The Watsons worked with designer Luke Holmes to bring their vision to life, resulting in a chic five-bedroom, Mediterranean-inspired home.

Featuring multiple living spaces, a three-car garage, media room, and office, the home boasts two wings connected via a large open plan living, dining and kitchen zone.

The central living area opens out to a vast entertaining deck overlooking a resort-style swimming pool and the rainforest beyond.

While the property boasts a minimalist feel, it’s relaxed contemporary aesthetic has attracted a whole lot of interest online.

Inside, limewashed ceilings and walls are complemented by materials such as Taj Mahal quartzite, travertine, and micro-cement that is softened by sheer curtains, skylights, and Danish timber cabinetry.

The property design journey has been such a success and sparked such interest that the Watsons are now set to embark on the process all over again.

The Valle Casa is going to auction on November 15 with Amir Mian and Christina James of Amir Prestige Group.
