The former TV personality Steve Vizard has sold his St Kilda mansion, Clendore.

The three-storey Italianate Victorian with 17 rooms and a rooftop pool was sold on October 5, although the website marketing has continued.

It's been bought by former champion skateboarder and streetwear fashion entrepreneur Peter Hill, who directs Globe International.

Vizard and wife Sarah renovated the seven-bedroom, 10-bathroom home after paying $3.96 million in 2004.

The sale ends a year-long campaign to sell the Fitzroy Street property, which was listed with $8 million-plus hopes. No sale price has yet emerged.

There is a rooftop Paul Bangay-designed garden above the grand colonnaded building, which sits on a 782-square-metre Fitzroy Street block.

The mansion has a 15-person Schindler commercial double-door lift that connects all four floors.

One of the original three adjoining terraces was the home of Sir Graham Berry, the distinguished radical politician, for several years.

The Vizard family sold their Orrong Road, Toorak, mansion for about $17.75 million in 2007 to The Good Guys boss Andrew Muir.

It was listed through Gross Waddell Melbourne commercial agents Andrew Waddell and Jonathan McCormack, given its potential as offices, hotel/leisure or medical consulting rooms. Jock Langley and Tim Derham of Abercromby’s are the conjunctional agents.
