Sailor and writer Rob Mundle lists resort-style Main Beach apartment

Yachtsman and sailing journalist Rob Mundle is selling his resort-style apartment in Main Beach, Queensland.

The north-facing Main Beach townhouse-style apartment is set over three levels and comes with a rooftop entertaining terrace with 360-degree views, master bedroom with balcony and ensuite, under-cover security parking, and resort facilities.

McGrath agent Duncan Longmore is looking to sell the property for more than $500,000 at its October 28 auction.

Mundle bought the property for $500,000 in 2003.

Total outgoings for the property are $7,705 per year.

The apartment is in a boutique block of 16 apartments known as Woodroffe Place. A neighbouring apartment, listed at $380,000, rents for $380 per week.

The last sale in the building was in 2009 when unit six sold for $410,000.

And in 2008 a unit in the building sold for $445,000.

Mundle is the author of Bligh, Fatal Storm, Bond, Sir James Hardy and Ocean Warriors.

He is often referred to as the voice of sailing.
