14 Mirimar Avenue, Bronte, is shooting for the suburb price record.
It’s less than two months since the Bronte house price record was smashed with a $17.9m sale, now the co-founder of healthcare provider GenesisCare, Dan Collins, is aiming to go one better.
Collins’s five-bedroom, four-bathroom home with a five-car garage at 14 Mirimar Avenue his hit the market for September 12 auction via Phillips Pantzer Donnelley principal Alexander Phillips. It’s understood he has a guide of $18m to $20m.
Collins only bought the home four years ago, paying $14.5m.
But if anything’s going to beat the price that green energy entrepreneur Carl Prins and his wife, Kate, paid in Gardyne Ave on July 7 in an off-market deal — also through Phillips — this is it.

A lift whisks you up to each of the three levels from the five-car garage.
This house has the best views in Bronte.
This truly is a special home, with far superior views than the Gardyne St property.
Both homes have five bedrooms and four bathrooms and are designer residences with ocean views, though this has a five car-garage rather than two and looks to be a cut-above in design terms and features along with the views.
It was previously owned by Peter Scutt — founder and CEO of Mable, an online service to help the aged or disabled find support workers — and his wife, Nadia Jacob, the founder and director of CrEight, which specialises in residential design.
The previous owners converted an old apartment block into this magnificent home.
The heated mineral pool is bathed in northerly sunshine.
They rebuilt an old apartment block — bought for $3m in 2013 — to create this incredible new home that was snapped up by Collins in an off-market deal via Pauline Goodyer of Goodyer, who’s now selling Scutt and Jacob’s next home in 22 Thompson Street with a $14m-$15m guide.
