Australian jewellery designer to the stars Chelsea De Luca has sold her stylish home in Brisbane’s Tarragindi a week after it was passed in at auction.

Three registered bidders took the five-bedroom house to $2.11m, with a buyer from Eight Mile Plains in front when the five-bedroom renovated home passed in.

This property at 39 Vinray St, Tarragindi, has sold for an undisclosed price post auction.


That same buyer spent the next week at open homes and realised how much they actually loved the property at 39 Vinray St, Tarragindi.

Atlas Brisbane sales agent Mark Diamond said he received a call from the couple saying they were done with looking at homes to buy.

The property sold to a couple from Eight Mile Plains.


“They said they’d had enough looking and would come back,” Mr Diamond said. “They had been bidding at auctions numerous weeks in a row and the wife just really loved the house.”

Mr Diamond said he had received a number of conditional offers since the auction, but the buyer made a cash unconditional offer that was too good to refuse.

The property is immaculate and even features a marble fireplace.


He would not disclose the sale price.

The property had been placed back on the market with a price guide over $2.2m.

“It’s an interesting time, it’s a sudden change,” Ms De Luca said of the current auction market.

The house has a monochrome colour palette – glossy, black floors and crisp white walls.


“We all saw the change coming but I feel like there’s been a definite change in the last month. For us it’s just about working together with the buyers to get the best result. Everyone prefers no conditions, the less fuss the better, but if it’s the most attractive offer, that’s what matters.”

Jewellery designer Chelsea De Luca renovated the property herself.


Ms De Luca started the renovation project of her Tarragindi home in 2010 and the property is now a sizeable dual-level home featuring a Carrara marble kitchen, two dual-shower ensuites, and a magnesium pool and a pool house equipped with a pizza oven.

“It was a love project that we finished in the last few years,” she said. “And we renovated it to be our forever home but now an opportunity has come up to build a home so we have decided to move on.”

De Luca had planned it to be her forever home, but an opportunity has come up to build another home.


Ms De Luca began showcasing her avant-garde jewellery collections in 2004 and now has an international following, with clients including Beyonce, Gwyneth Paltrow, Elle Macpherson and Jennifer Hawkins.
