Buddy and Jesinta Franklin officially put their $9million Gold Coast mansion on the market just 18 MONTHS after buying it… with plans to move to the country
Buddy and Jesinta Franklin have put their luxury Gold Coast mansion on the market, just 18 months after purchasing the property.
The power couple purchased the $8.75 million Mediterranean-style property, located in the upscale suburb of Reedy Creek, in late 2022.
The mansion is known as Villa Casa and upon purchasing it Buddy, 37, and Jesinta, 32, broke the price record for a property purchased in the scenic hinterland.
The seven-bedroom, eight-bathroom property features high ceilings, whitewashed walls, dark hardwood floors and striking arches.
The mansion, designed by award-winning architects Reece Keil, attracted huge interest when it first hit the market in 2022, becoming the most viewed property on the market. Realty.com.au.

The designer property sits on a 4,497 m² block and offers breathtaking views of the city skyline and beautiful Italian-style arches.
The architecturally designed estate combines modern touches, including a glamorous terrace and swimming pool, with traditional features, such as a stone fireplace.
The Franklins’ decision to sell follows reports that they are eyeing a move to the country.

Jesinta has been suffering from itchy feet for some time and left Sydney for the Gold Coast after footballer husband Buddy retired from the AFL in 2023.
Less than a year and a half later, the model is looking to green pastures.
“We are thinking about selling and buying a farm now, so yeah, we’ll see how it goes,” Jesinta told The Morning Show.
As she said: ‘We love it. We absolutely love it’ when it comes to the Gold Coast, the mother of two is keen to get into the bush.
“That might be the next thing we talk about the next time I’m here. “We just love the idea of being on the land, growing our own food, having horses, some Highland cows, we would love that,” she said.

Jesinta enjoys being alone with her husband and children, daughter Tullulah, three, and son Rocky, two.
“We get so much quality time together and we always make sure we watch the Swannies and Hawks games,” Jesinta said.
The couple sold their luxury apartment in Sydney’s eastern suburbs for $5 million to complete their move to the Gold Coast.
