A glitzy Gold Coast mansion with a games room that could rival TimeZone has hit the market.

The property, on the Sovereign Islands sold for $9m earlier in March, 2024 and was listed for sale this week with Ivy Wu and Isaac Kim of Ivy Realty.

“The owners downsized but are thinking they want to upsize again,” Mr Kim said.

“They have completely changed the basement and put a cinema room downstairs and a games room, it’s quite unbelievable.”

The fully fitted casino and gaming arcade is on the basement level along with a cinema, sauna and gym.

Named The Lighthouse for the glass pyramid on its rooftop shining over the Broadwater.

The property first hit the market in November 2022 with price hopes of about $12m, with a buyer finally secured this year after the property was relisted with another agent and reduced expectations.

The current owners bought the property from real estate industry stalwart Barry Plant and his wife Karen.

Mr and Mrs Plant built the American-style home after acquiring the land for $1.5m in 2014.

Named The Lighthouse for the glass pyramid on its rooftop shining over the Broadwater, the house at 18 Knightsbridge Pde East was crowned Master Builder’s Gold Coast Home of the Year when it was completed in 2017.

The four-level home comprises basement parking for 12 cars, with about 1,380 sqm of internal living space including four bedrooms and nine bathrooms.

The Lighthouse has a rooftop pool.
