A property in Craigburn Farm, South Australia, has been named the luxe listing of the week in a partnership with realestate.com.au [1].
The designation highlights the trend of high-end, owner-built residences designed for long-term residency rather than quick resale. Such properties often set new benchmarks for luxury standards within specific regional markets [1, 2].
Caleb Robins, principal at Professionals Robins 888, said the home was built by its current owners as their forever property and that they have thrown everything at it [1]. The property is being marketed as a premier residence that stands apart from other local listings [2].
Robins said the home is a cracking property that creates an immediate impression on visitors. He said it is the kind of property where you meet your guests at the front door, they say wow, and they say wow for the next 45 minutes [1].
The residence was highlighted for its high-end features and the intentionality of its construction [1]. Robins said the home is second to none in the area [1].
Because the owners designed the space as a permanent residence, the level of detail exceeds typical speculative builds. This approach results in a property that caters to specific luxury needs, rather than general market trends [2].
“"It was built by its current owners as their forever property, and they have thrown everything at it."”
The promotion of this property as a 'forever home' reflects a specific segment of the luxury real estate market where value is derived from bespoke, owner-led construction. By emphasizing that the owners 'thrown everything at it,' the marketing shifts the focus from standard luxury amenities to the emotional and financial investment of the builders, which can justify premium pricing in the South Australian market.
