Victor Island in the Great Barrier Reef for sale again trends now
An entire Australian island in the middle of the Great Barrier Reef is up for sale again less than a year after it was purchased by a group of interstate property developers because the stunning paradise didn't 'fit their plans'.
Victor Island in the pristine Whitsundays off the central Queensland coast was quietly re-listed with Sotheby's International Realty in December.
The 'off-the-grid' slice of paradise was last purchased in March 2022 for $3,655,500 by Kingdom Developments who completed settlement in September.
The 8ha island is now expected to sell for up to $4million - the cost of a house in some capital city suburbs - and includes a helipad, two boats, a swimming pool and a luxury main residence.
Kingdom Developments reportedly consists of members Dan Ode, Sam Hamrosi and Konrad Konczak-Islam from Sydney and Fiona Seitz from Victoria.
According to Kingdom's website the developers currently have 18 projects on their books which are mostly apartment buildings - mainly in NSW but also in WA, Victoria and Queensland, along with a commercial precinct, and two housing estates.
The idyllic island features a main home and also includes a caretaker's cottage and a solar farm so the owners don't have to pay expensive electricity bills

Victor Island currently has only one residence and Kingdom had planned to expand to 'accommodate for 30+ patrons' according to it's social media.
But Sotheby's agent Lynn Malone said the group eventually decided the project was not a good fit for them.
'They are more into mainland commercial and residential complexes so this... didn't quite fit with their plans,'
