The founder of luxury lingerie and sex toy company Honey Birdette, Eloise Monaghan, and her wife Natalie have snapped up a “penthouse oasis” before the first open home.
The couple, who only recently got married, are understood to have fallen in love with the three-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment at 51/74 Reservoir St, Surry Hills.
They paid $3,025,0000.
Oxford Real Estate’s Matt Marano had been guiding $2.6m.
“I just listed it and they said ‘we’ll buy it,” Marano told the Wentworth Courier exclusively.
“They were about to buy something else.”

It’s not hard to see why they were so keen on the penthouse, which has the bonus of a four-car garage.
It’s beautifully finished, very private, faces north so it’s full of sun and it has large living and outdoor entertainment areas.
There’s calacutta marble in both bathrooms and the kitchen.
The apartment has been beautifully renovated. And it’s been tightly held — the vendors have owned it since 2003 when they paid $925,000.
With 150sq m of living space, there are city skyline views from the large 80sq m entertainment terrace.
It has a well-thought-out open-plan design, with high end finishes.
That deck will be party central, with its built-in barbecue and bar fridge.
The galley kitchen has Gaggenau appliances and custom-built joinery.
The bedrooms have built-in wardrobes and the master has terrace access and an ensuite.
Other features are airconditioning and a separate internal laundry.
