Here are six things to ensure you’re the host with the most this holiday season:

A perfect spot for your tree

In the lead up to Christmas, your tree really sets the festive tone in your home. The best place for it is front and centre where you’ll see it constantly, which is why the living room is a favourite spot. If you’re lucky enough to have towering high ceilings like our prize home, then you have the luxury of choosing the biggest tree you can find! This one has also been beautifully and professionally styled so you don’t even have to unpack your Christmas decorations. 

The only thing better than your view from the couch looking out over your alfresco patio to the glistening canal out the back is that very same view at Christmas time, when it’s framed by your grand Christmas tree!

An entertainer’s kitchen

Cooking a Christmas feast is no easy feat, but a great kitchen sure makes a difference. With the best appliances at your fingertips, plenty of room to prep multiple dishes at once, and an open plan layout so you never miss a moment of the action (or conversations), our Mater Prize Home’s sleek modern kitchen is made for this moment.

Since cooking for lots of people—particularly at Christmas when the menu is opulent—tends to be a very messy affair, you’ll be thankful for your butler’s pantry where you can hide the chaos. There’s a second fridge (life-changing!), even more counter space, and best of all, it’s tucked away out of sight.

Room to mingle

It’s a shame when the size of your home (or lack there of) dictates the size of your guest list: luckily, in this home, the more the merrier. The stunning open plan means the dining room, kitchen, living room and additional outdoor dining area flow seamlessly and offer so much space for everyone to fit in comfortably together.

A fresh air feast

Living on the Gold Coast, you never want to miss a moment in the beautiful outdoors, and Christmas is no exception. Appreciate the stunning weather while keeping out of the sun in your vast alfresco area, which is right off the kitchen for easy serving access. Already set up with a dining table and a bar fridge, it also has one of the best views in the house of the canal.

Don’t forget to bring the fun

Between opening presents and devouring the Christmas Day feast, your pool will be a popular spot to hang out. With beautiful views out to the canal, pool lounges for relaxing under the sun, and spa jets to encourage a purely blissed out feeling, it doesn’t get much better! 

Additionally, our latest Mater Prize Home lottery No. 310 includes a top-of-the-line Sea Fox boat, PLUS two Sea-Doo jet skis, so there’s also the option to get out on the water for a carefree cruise around the neighbourhood.

Somewhere to sleep off all that food!

After you’ve polished off that seafood platter and washed it down with some bubbles, you’ll likely be hankering for a well-earned rest. With five bedrooms and two living rooms, this home has no shortage of places for a nap! Or, pop on a Christmas movie in your home theatre room and just sit back and relax in the leather recliners and double chaise lounge for the afternoon.
