Brittany Higgins and David Sharaz add to their Gold Coast home

Brittany Higgins is kitting out her lavish new rental home with the latest appliances as she explores the neighbourhood with her fiancé.

The former political staffer and her groom-to-be David Sharaz moved into the beachside house on the Gold Coast about two weeks ago.

The payout followed the failed prosecution of fellow Liberal staffer Bruce Lerhmann, whom Ms Higgins accused of raping her on a couch in Parliament House.

Mr Sharaz, who quit his job when the couple moved, on Saturday helped delivery drivers move a new refrigerator inside the house.

He took the bottom end of the huge appliance as they hauled it off the back of a ute and carrier it inside covered in a plastic sheet.

The fridge will join other expensive furnishings in the upmarket home, including a $500 white velvet mirror and a $330 decorative side table.

Ms Higgins and Mr Sharaz at another point during the day took a stroll around their Gold Coast neighbourhood and visited a local café.

Mr Sharaz wore the same dark green t-shirt and fluro shorts he threw on to move the fridge, while Ms Higgins opted for a summer dress in the Queensland heat.
