Event promoter Andrew McManus has relisted his Toorak mansion which failed to sell at its August 2011 auction. It opened on a  bid of $9.8 million before passing in on a vendor bid of $11 million but with a $13 million asking price.

The house last sold in 2008 mid-construction for $8.75 million. 

The house, with a seven car garage, had been initially commissioned for construction in 2007 by David Fox, the youngest son of trucking magnate Lindsay Fox, who sold before the property was completed.

There’s also a study, gym, home theatre, billiards room and cabana and pool on its 1,389 square metre block.

Justin Long of Marshall White and Bennison Mackinnon's Nathan Waterson are long gone from the listing.

The Myoora Road property is now listed with Kay & Burton agent Andrew Baines, who tells Title Tattle he's seeking $10 million plus. Offers are due September 3.

Readers of Suzanne Carbonne's column in The Age would know its a matrimonial matter between McManus and his Perth-based lawyer wife, Jacqueline O'Sullivan.

Apparently McManus is looking to move bayside.
