The enthusiastic arts patron Sophie Landa has sold the longtime family home in for a 2016 Woollahra price record.

It was an off-market sale mid-way through its renovation, with the 1400 sqm holding fetching $9.75 million.

Landa, the daughter of the late NSW attorney-general Paul Landa and his arts patron wife Anne, prefers Bondi Beach these days.

Last year the former publicist and mother of two paid $4.82 million for the Bondi Beach home of the music mogul Stephen Pavlovic.

Paul Landa, who was a minister in Neville Wran's government, died in 1984, aged 43, a year after buying the Wallaroy Road house.
