James Maloney buys in Panther heartland
Former Cronulla Sharks star James Maloney has been a mover over summer. Now signed with Penrith Panthers, the star five-eighth has bought at Glenmore Park.
He and wife Jessica Anderson, who have two children, have settled on a $1,265,000 home, just 10km south of his new training ground.
It is in the same suburb that fellow Panther James Tamou bought when he moved his family down from North Queensland.
The marketing through The Property Company Penrith selling agents Adam and Danii Leatherbarrow described the street as “one of the area’s best cul-de-sacs”.
Set on 615sqm, the architecturally designed entertainer has five bedrooms, three bathrooms and a study.
A covered alfresco area overlooks the swimming pool, while there are two separate living areas either side of the central kitchen.
Maloney, who had a stellar debut in the trial game last week against the Roosters, has leased the family’s five-bedroom Maroubra home.
The home, Maloney’s first, had a guide of $490,000 to $538,000 through First National Blacksmiths agent Andrew McGrath. Maloney had paid $295,000 for the home more than a decade ago when he was a 21-year-old playing for Parramatta Eels reserve grade.
Maloney failed to break into the first team, prompting his move to Melbourne, where he kicked off his NRL career.
There’s been no purchase yet for Moylan nearer his new club, after leasing his former home — a Gledswood Hills house near Camden.
He paid $575,000 for the home in 2016 but settlement of the newly built three-bedroom townhouse has only just revealed the star fullback as the purchaser.
Moylan also owns an apartment at St Clair in Penrith heartland.
