“Family-owned Gold Coast home set to hit the market after nearly 50 years”

The charming story of a family home that has stood the test of time on the Gold Coast is capturing the attention of real estate enthusiasts. Located at 34 Rapallo Ave, Isle Of Capri, this iconic property has been in the same family since it was built in the 1970s and is now set to go to auction.

Back in the ’70s, Frank and Ester Esler purchased the block of land in Surfers Paradise for a mere $42,500, envisioning a peaceful retirement by the water. Their son, Adrian Esler, now based in Brisbane, is ready to part ways with the beloved family home that holds decades of cherished memories.

From street cricket games to lazy beach days, the Esler family created countless moments within the walls of this nostalgic residence. The property boasts a stunning water view and a history that includes sharing neighborhood cricket matches with the late state minister, Bruce Bishop.

Over the years, the house has undergone renovations and updates, yet it retains its original charm from the 1970s. With four bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a pool, this home offers potential buyers a chance to own a piece of Gold Coast history in one of the most prestigious suburbs.

Real estate agent Sonja Smith of Harcourts Broadbeach – Mermaid Waters is excited to present this unique property to the market, noting the growing interest in restoring it to its former glory. As the auction date approaches, the allure of owning a piece of Gold Coast nostalgia is drawing attention from buyers looking for a special place to call home.
