Grand estate – 106-108 Seaforth Cres, Seaforth.
One of Seaforth’s largest estates has a new owner, little more than a year after it last changed hands.
The buyer is a family from Melbourne who are relocating to Sydney and bought the home without seeing it in person, although an extended family member did inspect it on their behalf.

No. 106-108 Seaforth Cres is widely regarded as one of Seaforth’s largest and most luxurious estates. The sale price has not been disclosed, but is understood to be in excess of the most recent guide of $9.5 million.
The property was sold by private treaty through Jake Rowe and Anthony Zakos, of Rowe Partners Real Estate, in conjunction with Max Yue, of Di Jones Chatswood.

Mr Rowe said there were two very keen buyers who wanted the luxury home, but it was the Melbourne buyer who dug the deepest – even knowing the COVID lockdown meant they could not see it in person.
A family member visited the property for them, showing the home’s many features on a FaceTime video.
The 2864sqm property last sold in July, 2019, for $8.12 million, according to CoreLogic.

Mr Rowe said there was plenty of buyer interest in properties on the northern beaches at that price point.
“The prestige market is really strong at the moment,” he said.
The property comes with everything you would expect from a resort-style estate, including a floodlit championship-sized tennis court, heated in-ground swimming pool, putting greens and sprawling gardens that make the most of the Middle Harbour views.
The house itself was designed by renowned Castlepeake Architects, and has some 570sqm of internal living space.

The versatile floorplan has numerous formal and casual living and dining spaces, which flow out to the many terraces and decks. The kitchen has a calacatta island bench with Miele appliances.
The main bedroom takes up most of the upper floor, with a walk-in wardrobe, ensuite and private deck. There is another bedroom on this level, and that also has access to its own private deck.
Other features of the five-bedroom home include a media room, home office, fully self-contained guest studio accommodation, ducted airconditioning, security system, surround sound system, gym or games room plus four-car garage and storeroom with internal access.
