Description:
Nestled into the hills of the Gold Coast this beautiful 750 acres is located in Bonogin, less than 30 minutes travel away from Village Roadshow Studios, making it the largest privately owned property on the Gold Coast. Here you can immerse yourself in 360 degrees of green. Creeks run through the area, passing by pastoral farmland and a beautiful natural pine plantation. Currently, a tropical jungle and a giant bamboo plantation are being purpose-built for filming. It doesn’t matter where you stand on the property you are unlikely to see any neighbours in the valley. This makes it an ideal location for a film backlot. The property is very pro film and it is easy to build sets here. There is a purpose-built crew car-park and unit base with power and lighting, as well as weatherproof roads to the parts of the property most used for filming. The property has been used for over twenty years by local and international productions. It was the home of Steven Spielberg’s Terra Nova for which a variety of locations, from tropical jungles to pine forests, were utilised. The longest running show on the property was the television series Beastmaster, which used the property as its main set for over two years. The land has seen everything from elephants and tigers to massive set builds. What is great about this property is that there are no restrictions as to what can be built, as there is no need to worry about upsetting any neighbours. Conveniently located 29km (27 min) from Village Roadshow Studios. It is a straight run south on the highway making it ideally situated. The nearest airport is Gold Coast Airport, Coolangatta (OOL). Gold Coast City is the closest POH, only 19km (23 min) away.
