Gerringong's Soul finds buyer
Soul of Gerringong has been sold by the Sydney-based builder and interior design team, Ben and Simone Mathews.
The new Sydney owner, who had been looking in the Gerringong area for some time, intends to run the property as it is.
It opened its doors three years ago with farmhouse, pool-side cabana, studio barn and the stand alone cottage.
Ray White Gerringong agent Neil Campbell and Ray White Double Bay agent Craig Pontey had the listing of the bespoke holiday property at 143 Belinda Street.
“Ben and Simone have created a beautiful sought-after haven which is booked out months in advance for holiday stays and corporate retreats” Campbell said before the coronavirus shutdown.
The property was sold with the ‘Soul of Gerringong’ business included in the offering.
Simone Mathews said she and her husband Ben, owner of BAM Construction, created what was a "blurring of the line between a holiday house and a boutique hotel.”
The Cronulla-based husband and wife team bought the property in October 2015 as an original coastal farmhouse on 1525 sqm of land.
The property sleeps up to 22 persons.
“After we were featured in Qantas Magazine we had people contacting us straight from their flight to book in,” Ms Mathews said.
The property was set for public auction on site on April 7, 2020 with a buyer’s price guide of $4 million, but withdrawn and found its buyer in early June via private treaty.
