Shoe designer Gary Castles has finally sold his radiant Whale Beach property.

It was posted as sold on the weekend with its price undisclosed.

He’s had the Malo Road property for three decades, and it was initially listed in March last year.

It’s a four-bedroom house on a hillside 1,160-square-metre block that has an approved dual occupancy. 

There’s also approval for another level to the main residence that includes the addition of a three-car garage.

David Edwards and Peter Robinson from LJ Hooker Palm Beach had revised the price expectations of $5 million plus for its October auction, having initially had $7 million-plus hopes in March.
