Glamorous Tama up for sale with three double-digit homes on offer

22 Thompson St, Tamrarama has a price guide of $14m-$15m.

Wealthy Sydneysiders wanting a dream home in the tiny beachside suburb of Tamarama are currently spoiled for choice.

One of the latest to hit the market is a recently transformed four-bedroom, three-bathroom home with double garage at 22 Thompson St.

“It’s just stunning,” says Goodyer principal Pauline Goodyer, who has a price guide of $14m-$15m.

She wouldn’t discuss the identity of the owners, though property records show it to be the home of Peter Scutt — founder and CEO of Mable, an online service to help the aged or disabled find support worker — and his wife, Nadia Jacob, the founder and director of CrEight, which specialises in residential design.

The terrace at 22 Thompson St, Tamarama, has incredible ocean views.

The home has been transformed recently.

The house has a perfect northeast aspect with views overlooking Tamarama Beach to the north and expansive ocean views to the east.

Among its features are the double height entry with Koi pond and landscaped garden, designer kitchen with Wolf and Sub-zero appliances, multiple indoor entertainment areas and a north-facing outdoor terrace.

There’s a heated swimming pool plus two outdoor showers.

CoreLogic records show the couple bought the home for $6.2m in 2016, before submitting a DA for the dramatic renovation two years later.

Goodyer was at a loss to explain the sudden burst of listings in Tamarama — “everyone’s got different reasons” — though she pointed out big sales sometimes encourage vendors to capitalise.

16 Thompson St, Tamarama is being sold with council approved plans for a Madeleine Blanchfield transformation.

The existing house sold for $12.5m three years ago.

She’d recently sold the home of cinematographer Peter James, but couldn’t disclose the sale price. The guide had been $9.5m. Other sources understood the final price to have been $9.2m.

Another to have just hit the market is the knockdown at 16 Thompson St — the home of Travelogic founder Craig Smith and his wife, Kate — purchased in 2017 for $12.5m.

That’s now on the market with Alex Phillips of Phillips Pantzer Donnelley, who says he doesn’t have a price guide, simply quoting the last traded price of three years ago.

“Obviously it’s more than that,” he said.

It’s now being offered with development approval for a glamorous rebuild designed by the acclaimed architect, Madeleine Blanchfield.

28 Kenneth St, Tamarama, has a $15 guide. Brad Pillinger says he’s had some “good offers”.

The house, at 28 Kenneth St, was the Wentworth Courier House of the Week this week.

On one of Tamarama’s largest land holdings of 563sq m, it currently has a huge terrace with panoramic ocean views.

In other eastern suburbs beaches news, Rubinstein’s colleagues at Ray White TRG, Oliver Lavers and new recruit Sebastian Fernandez, are understood to have had a hand in the recent record-breaking $17.9m sale in Bronte.
