Dover Heights clifftop sells for $6 million
A tightly held Wentworth Street, Dover Heights clifftop offering sold at auction last night for a bullish $6 million.
With private ocean views, it is a knockdown on 544 sqm that came with $4.5 million hopes through Bradfield Cleary agent Georgia Cleary.
The price guidance was based on a $4.4 million sale of a 449 sqm holding a few doors along by Cleary in mid-2017.
The home, bought in the 1940s for £340 pounds, last traded internally among relatives at $200,000 in 1982.
It sold to a phone bidder represented by estate agent Wayne Ihaka.
The sighting of Deborra-lee Furness at an open for inspection quickly triggered a wave of suggestions she and her showman husband Hugh Jackman could be on the lookout for a permanent Sydney abode.
They were no-show at the auction.
The word from the Jackman camp is that Furness was merely assisting a family friend with their Dover Heights property search.
